Now that you’ve booked that flight to Bangkok, it’s time to start planning for your itinerary. One of the places that you have to visit is Siam Square AKA the “Bugis” of Bangkok filled with endless shopping, eating, and entertainment opportunities to explore.
But, it can be a chore to search up the individual stores, especially when it’s in a foreign country that you’re not particularly familiar with.
If you’re one of those friends who just like to tag along on your holiday, this is your chance to step up without putting in much time or effort. Here’s ten places to shop in Siam Square including K-beauty apparel, affordable street eats, unique photo booths and more.
1. I Found Something Good
I found something good (pun intended).
No, but really, I Found Something Good stays true to its name as it has a plethora of the cutest stationeries and crafts that I’ve ever set my eyes on. From quirky stickers and notebooks to phone straps and plush dolls, you definitely won’t leave this shop empty-handed.
For anyone who loves collecting blind boxes, take your pick from Sonny Angels, Sanrio, Sylvannian Families and more.
There’s even tote bags of various designs so you don’t have to lug your haul back to the hotel (plus you stay environmentally-friendly).

2. Daddy and the Muscle Academy
Ever heard of Daddy and the Muscle Academy?
Nope, it’s not a gym or wellness centre contrary to popular belief.
It’s actually an extremely popular lifestyle shop in Bangkok with a huge variety of trendy clothes, bags, accessories, and other apparel.
Create your brand new summer look, be it vintage coquette, Y2K streetwear or island girl, there are plenty of different aesthetic styles to try.
Afterwards, head to the photobooth in-store to show off your fit — don’t fret if it gets too crowded as there are plenty of IG-worthy photo spots in the store.

3. Nineties Club
Just a stone’s throw away from Daddy and the Muscle Academy is Nineties Club which is a Thai local brand selling Korean-inspired fashion pieces.
This shop lowkey reminds me of a retro American diner decked in brick red and white walls and checkered posters.
There’s two levels for you to literally shop till you drop, filled with an array of cute and playful t-shirts.
This includes the likes of crop tops, long sleeved, oversized, and tank tops to match the season you’re living in. Complete your outfit with a hat so you can stay shaded from the scorching sun and still stay slaying.

An outfit isn’t complete without accessories, am I right?
Tres is a three-storey clothing stall with over 300 lifestyle brands — a paradise for shopaholics with trendy shoes and bags. You can expect to find tote, mini pouch, canvas bags and so much more to bring along regardless of any occasion.
Elevate your bag with a keychain from Powerpuff Girls, LINE FRIENDS as well as Miffy.
While you’re there, it’s a good time to build your capsule wardrobe with a pair of basic sandals or comfy sneakers as there will be a lot of walking in Bangkok.

If you’re not a fan of shopping for clothes, how about a plushie or two to bring back home for memorabilia?
Seek and Keep Club is a multi-brand lifestyle store filled with knick knacks, toys, accessories, and even plushies.
Bring home a Care Bear in every colour that you could ever imagine or Disney’s Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck.
Girlies, this might come in useful when the time of the month arrives — there are microwave-safe sunny side-up egg plushies that come with a removable heat pack to soothe those cramps too.
