Fan of Gentle Monster
“I’ve been living in Happy Valley since the day I was born — I’m used to living there and I wouldn’t want to leave. On my days off, I walk my dog from Happy Valley past the SCAA to Leighton Road. It’s a nice stroll where I can shop and eat too. Today I’m checking out Gentle Monster. I like this brand because their designs are really different compared to other brands; they’re bold and trendy but they also easily fit any type of face. I’ve got three different pairs from Gentle Monster already; they’re easy to match with clothes too!”
