claire’s at LaLaport Koshien is closing on October 31

Claire’s, a pop and colorful shop selling affordable accessories, hair ties, and more, Claire’s, is withdrawing from Japan.
Apparently all stores will close at the end of October, and the shop at LaLaport Koshien is also holding a closing sale.
It looks like some items are half off or 4 for 1,000 yen (before tax).

Dear All Fans💜
クレアーズが日本からサヨナラする10月31日まであとすこし。最後の日まで、ワクワクとトキメキがいっぱいで、ちょっと刺激的なアイテムとの出会いをクレアーズのお店で楽しんでね🌈

I went with my kids too! (It was a different store, though… 😅)
↑Even buying all this came to just 1,200 yen (before tax) 😳 What a deal✌

Lastly

Since Claire’s has been in Japan for 25 years, there are probably many people who shopped there across two generations.
When I was younger, I used to shop often at the store that was in Okamoto, Kobe back then💍
Even after becoming a mom, it was the perfect price range for when my daughters begged me to buy them things, so I used it a lot. That makes the news of their withdrawal pretty shocking… 😣
It seems Aeon had been running the business in Japan, so I really hope they come back someday, even in a new format😭
