    A mix between a gift shop, a $2 shop, an oriental shop and a furniture store, this place has a little bit of everything. Have a bit of a venture in if you're passing by, but I'm not entirely sure what purpose would bring you to this store specifically, although they do have a lot of things that one may need at odd intervals of time, something obscure, like Asian beads or something. As long as you know the store intimately enough to know that they have what you need, you will find what you're looking for. If not, this store may not daw your attention. Halloween costumes for example, or cheap jewellery. The place feels a bit like a treasure hunt, rather than purpose built.

    The smell of scented candles and incense wafts over you as you make your way through the crowded maze of trinkets that make up Eastern Flair. The shop is an eclectic mix of cooking equipment, Eastern-inspired homewares, cushions, teapots, furniture, Halloween costumes (all year round), tatami screens and cheap womens accessories. Upstairs is the "50% off" section, which mainly consists of more Eastern-inspired furniture, particularly cabinets, mirrors, draws, lamps and hat-stands. The teapot sets here are my favourite item and for an entire year my friends could count on receiving an Eastern Flair teapot set Japanese style teapots with 2 - 4 cups) for any given occasion. Their Moroccan tea glasses are beautiful and affordable too, as are their ornate selection of tajines. Clothes make up only a small section of the store and are not the reason most people come here. They do sell a good range of fisherman pants though, which seem to be an 'at-home-essential' wardrobe item and they have beautiful scarves with pretty good deals (one for $10, two for $15). The jewellery is mostly tacky/gothic inspired, but they do have the one thing that sells it for me - Lava Lamps. Sold.

    Newtown is one of my favourite parts of Sydney and I must have walked past Eastern Flair a gazillion times, yet today was the first time I went inside and I now I am kicking myself for not checking it out sooner. I needed to buy a gift for a friend with eclectic taste and Eastern Flair solved my dilemma. It is the most enormous shop with an unbelievable range of stock. I could spend hours in there. Their stock range is far beyond eastern in style. The eastern stuff is great with a wide range of Buddhas, elephants, linens, clothes, furniture, an enormous selection of jewellery. They also have other cool stuff as funky picture frames, beautiful bird- cages, masks, lamps and seriously cool framed signs and pictures, apart from the cute meditating wooden frog I bought my friend, I bought myself a framed picture of an old fashioned telephone booth (you have to see it).

    I like the store as well as the amount of things, i got a pillow from muji and it was very soft but…read morethe music was just silent night being repeated over and over again and it didn't really fit the store

    MUJI is a Japanese department store chain known for its minimalist design products. The flagship…read morestore in Sydney located at The Galeries is relatively new as it only opened last year. It is currently the largest MUJI in Australia based on store size. This chain has been described as the IKEA of Japan, which is not that accurate. The design element is similar and the store does offer large furniture and home items. But the store offers an array of items not found at IKEA including beauty products, luggage, men's and women's clothing, stationery and travel accessories. Though the selection is not as extensive as the stores in Asia as there isn't a food area, aside from a selection of bottled teas. I am particular fond of the snacks that MUJI sells at their airport locations at Hong Kong and Narita Airport, so it was disappointing to see that this store doesn't carry that line. I visited the store twice on my trip to Australia. I checked out their men's clothing area and found the pricing to be reasonable. Plus the minimalist design is appealing if you don't like any logos on your clothing. The regular prices here seemed higher than Uniqlo, but they do have good markdowns on their clearance items. In fact, I picked a casual short sleeve shirt for under $10. On the day before I was flying back to the US, I visited the store to make my return trip more comforting. I wasn't looking forward to the 14 hour flight to LA, so I returned to pick up a travel pillow here as MUJI is known for this offering. I decided to get a neck cushion. While it didn't help me to get much sleep on the plane, it provided good support and prevented neck strain. The cushion is not as bulky as other pillows, so it fits comfortably in your backpack and doesn't take up a lot of room. If you are a fan of simply designed and well made products, MUJI is a great place to shop. And for travelers looking to make their journey a little more comfortable, it is worth checking out the travel accessories offered here. Particularly if you are taking a long-haul flight.
