I need to find, for thursday, a plain white polo shirt and either black, beige or khaki shorts, or a skirt in the same colours.



Can anyone recommend a place for me to go to? Im planning on going to the greek side tomorrow too but can only spend the morning there as i think the shops close half day. Im hoping to find something there but knowing me i wont and ill panic! Just in case i come back empty handed, or to save me a trip to the south, if someone knows of somewhere, if you could enlighten me i would much appreciate it!



Thanks, Gemma

You poor thing lol Try Koton, Mine, Serena, Zeynep, any shop might have it so I would suggest going downtown and having a look one by one. maybe Nike or Adidas??



You could also check the websites of some of the shops in the south to see if they have what you are after, it would save you time.

I agree Wednesday Girne market although am not sure if there is anywhere you can try the clothes on, Nike shop might do a white polo top but not sure if it will all plain or maybe have a small nike logo in the corner, Benetton do plain things usually but are quite expensive.

Glad to hear it although! Although it is very out of order of your new employers, if they want you to wear specific colours and clothing to not just supply a uniform! It's not fair for you to have to run around and waste both your time & money!
