World Porters and Red warehouse area, reasonable pricing, good restuaruants, some unique vendors.... Also enjoyed Landmark Tower, very beutiful mall with a GODIVA chocolate store on a "island "; H & M, Gap, Western Sizzler (very expensive)....really!

Takishimaya Mall in Yokohama- take a left outside the main Yokohama station, walk through Joinus and blam..you're there. They offer a ton of makeup counters, clothing shops, restaurants, and a grocery store that sells a ton of delicious foods (even organic) and various beers/wines/little bottles of liqour. I LOVE it! Even more, all around the mall has great shopping (Yodobashi Camera, Tokyo Hands, and tons of little stores and restaurants). I'm in love!

Hard-off!!! (all over Japan, but I visit the one off of 16 the most)
Offers SO many different things, from clothes to guitars and electronics, from poop to posh quality items
I love them because while some items are not cheap by any means, you can always find an awesome deal on SOMETHING.

Name- Landmark and Queen's

Location- Minatomirai

What this place has to offer- You can enjoy just window shopping, clothing, furniture, restaurants & cafes and more. There is a samll amusement park outside of those building. Street performers are out on the weekends. It is a nice place to just walk around in a sunny day too.

Why you like it- If you don't mind walking long-distance, you can go to Chinatown and walk through Yamashita park, Red brick, World porter and to Minatomirai. After long walk, you always find cafes to sit down for.

does anyone know if or where a beauty supply store is near Yokosuka?

Have you looked in More's City? They have stuff there, I believe there is a store on the 1st of 2nd floor. It's been a while to remember the exact floor.
