after so long absent from the society
it’s time to get back to work
post CNY pre Valentine’s marketing survey
two women
unattractively dressed up
no preening up no nothing
of course
there is a need to stay low-profile
we are the market surveyor
not the usual shoppers
but it’s a great mistake to wear Polo tee like this
because this is exactly the uniform for a certain store
hills of items
labeled 9 bucks and 19 bucks, respectively
ransack ransack
that’s the thing I do the best
blue-white stripes dress
failed..
because this is XS
I got a pair of super wide shoulders
second item
baby blue Polka dot dress
I like one-piece item like this
comfie and convi
second station
flip flops
more like beach sandals
polka dot again..
in pink or brown
pink is too girlish
brown is too boyish
if there is one pair in blue…
wandered to the kids zone
this is Payless…
(advertised as the biggest family shoe store
in the States)
a pretty interesting shoe store, like an outlet
all the shoes are classified according to sizes
displayed like this along with the box
so it’s more like a self-service shoe store
the box… the box
haha now I imagining
if that Spongebob fan is going to
give birth to a baby boy
I will buy these for him..
that day will ultimately come, very soon
please remind me if I forget
next station.. Rip Curl
quite a couple of attractive items
wait till the price get affordable
the perfect couple
the baby blue shirt with mini nautical logo
embroidered all over
and that dress with a lovely back (hole-in-one)
very down-to-earth looking bag
and this one
oh my
equipped with the map
I like this so so much
recently back to wearing skinny jeans, quite often
since it makes my mom happy
this is just the perfect piece at perfect price
50% off, for member cardholders
thank goodness both of us left our cards
at home or somewhere else
keep-in-view for the time being
then, must-visit Zaza
lacey dress, not my kind of thing
orange, not my kind of colour
but somehow this combination is pretty good
or should I resort to the
good old LBD
how I wish I can buy both
no… make a decision
loots of the day:
- baby blue polka dress X 2
- natural-orange lace dress X 2
this is what best friends are like
buying the exact same items
feeling proud of it
even wearing them out on a same occasion
if we were to tally up
we have at least 10 identical items already
head to toe… everything
and at the final station
I was checking out a polka dot dress
because it looks familiar
my sis owns one of them
there’s no way
I wanna buy the same item after her
moreover.. I can always wait for hand-me-down
sorry for causing this
while I was checking out the polka dot dress
black/blue/white
blue is fine..
but it’s unbearable to see blue with laces
then my fellow surveyor fell for this colour
instead of me buying
she got this
but.. but
while waiting for her
I surveyed around
and randomly bought this
a little white dress
isn’t it awesome..
to sit right in front, in between Esprit and Mango
while admiring our relatively way cheaper loots
this has been our strategies now
survey starts from the main-stream boutiques
while looting starts from the cheapest stores
everything I bought today
3 dresses is equals to
1 “further-further marked-down” item
in a branded boutique
not forgetting
the pair of pink polka flip flops
from Montego Bay Club
it has a lovely name, printed in the receipt
“Olivia Polka Dot Braid Ev– Hot Pink”
Ooh lala… hot pink
it is indeed a good beginning today
on our way to the girlish style
first lace dress
first orange dress
first pink polka flip flops
somehow it feels so weird
perhaps everything was ignited
by the braids I first attempted
not very long ago
Mini Plait X Double Braids: Play-Head
you know
I thought wearing something like these
will help to lower the possibility of looting
troublesome for fitting session, asides
jeans, sneakers and all
made me feel boyish
therefore killing off the desire to shop
this is kinda like the Dr. Jekyll vs Mr. Hyde theory
but unfortunately
it did not work too well
this is my first shopping of 2012
and since way back in Oct
a little indulgence like this
will do me good
because..
other than “marketing survey”
there is hardly anything
which will drag me out into the humanity
I relinquished myself
to lace and pink today
is this a bad thing
or a good beginning?
I simply don’t know
time will tell
