the long-awaited Cotton On is finally opened
has been expecting since last December
yeehaww
rubi is the sub-brand for accessories
come on rubi
you can do better than this
can’t you
waiting upstairs for more
okay that’s better
and two for 30 MYR
hey.. marketing ploy
they used to sell it at 15 MYR per pair
this wasn’t a selfie
i just wanna show you
how spacious this store is
barrel bag on sale
50% off at 30 MYR each
thank goodness all of them come in
elaborated printed which is not my cup of tea
oh my..
Nike-look-alike water tumbler
so finally i found you
and way way cheaper
the colours of summer make me dizzy
i think i am buying this and that and those
wait.. where am I?
look of the day
sweet rainbow cropped tee X royal blue tube dress
10 SGD for the tee from community bazaar and
4 GBP for the dress from Primark
finally finally i am putting on an all-black jumpsuit
and i am loving this
it looks even better rolled-up
i know right..
black jumpsuit x white kicks
perfect fits
want the collegiate top
the pants is a combi
yet another marketing ploy
one for 60MYR,
two for 80 MYR
this is real great
chambray grey dress
the chambray shade is very well-washed
not too faded not too dark
just perfect
yet this is a last-piece size L
another newly-opened, Italian-based Terranova
unlike Cotton On
i am totally new to this label
the overall feel is similar to Cotton On and Bershka
totally all so summer
a quick browse at the official site reveals that
it’s actually huge
okay forgive me for being oblivious
567 stores in 33 countries
it’s all about Fast Fashion and Low Cost
this is another problematic promotion scheme
basically you buy nothing or 3, 6, 9, 12
and if you wanna make full use of the scheme
you have to find items of the similar price range
it’s not difficult to calculate
these buy 2, (almost) free 1 scheme is actually
a 33% discount (if you buying items of same price)
and you end up buying 3 items
instead of 1 or 2
the elephant print
i previously bumped into it
a pullover sweater at Kitschen
hey.. i am so not letting this go
and the Free-dom cropped tee
how would Terranova know that
i love both cropped and oversized tee
this is a trap!!
yet another jumpsuit
looks good on the mannequin
let’s see
thank goodness again!
if this is a tote bag
i doubt i could have survived the temptation
“Think Global, Act Local”
a.k.a. GLOCALISATION which
is no stranger in my PR/Marketing proposal
as i was saying earlier on
Rainbow colours make me dizzy and
i could lose my mind anytime soon
buying things which…
awwwhhh… this is so dangerous
wow..
so looks like Roxy next door is
not the only place i can get Bikini at Melaka
and way way way cheaper
p.s. Roxy, i am still a fan *peace*
now that i found the collection’s lookbook
i feel like going back to buy immediately
love the feel of the fitting room
the jumpsuits didn’t fit as well
bottom is tight
top is kinda loose
and the material is a little too casual
for me to wear to work
Free-dom cropped tee
for us who are never bothered about accessories
this is kinda great
the eletop
and hey.. spontaneously i tied a knot
the flora print is too much i guess
unsymmetrical floral print is not for me
a little too matured and
hey i think i actually looked bitchy
i don’t know
sometimes that i have been looking for
a basketball jersey
and this comes in a playsuit form
hey.. it goes well with tanned girl
i know right.. people always mistook me as
basketball player
well.. i don’t run after the ball
the ball ran after me instead
I realize something about me against Terranova
probably tailored for European women
for tops i can fit in XS as above
but for the playsuit and jumpsuit
the bottom feels tight
the typical Asian body of
small upper burst yet huge butt
nice signage by F block
this question has been playing in my mind
with huge groups of fashion like Terranova, Cotton On
Uniqlo, Mango, H&M (soon…) landing in
a small city like Malacca
are the small and medium local labels
gonna survive for long?
not to mention the small retailers
who are at the very end of manufacturing line
while the big group has got everything under one
from designing, production, marketing to retailing
cost is driven real low due to economies of scale
oh man.. i don’t know
okay in support of local food
“Think Global, Act Local” *peace*
it’s no secret that
i wanted a pair of Aldo since it opened last year
okay now
make it happen now
no.. i am not buying any men’s shoes
except sneakers?
that’s how messy my bag is
ya the 700ml bottle of yogurt drink
i need to hydrate myself so that
i can shop soberly
looks like Jelly shoes are in trend this summer
not for me though
too girlish, too sleek, too colourful
i guess the sale assistants were like
i doubt this girl will be buying Aldo
she entered to make a prank on us
one good thing about Malacca
it’s such a small place
everything is so concentrated
in need of Vitamin Sea
after a heavy-duty 4 hours shopping
but it felt kinda awkward
as others looked on
me and my “brother”
what other relationship can people assume
from a guy and a girl strolling by the beach
nevertheless
the weather was great
so was my post-looting victorious mood
speaking of supporting the local trades
where else but Jonker Street night market
targets locked down
the prints are getting more and more amazing these days
you name it
any prints can be printed on
loots of the day
it has been awhile
liar.. the previous heavy shopping was
last week at Bershka Shanghai which
i am still finding time to blog about
that’s not all.. the sneakers you ordered online
the quick one at KLIA2
damn you, Steph
p.s.
the black flip flops which i brought to office
planning to leave them here as
the “bathroom slippers” was stolen
technically bought over
i was pointing to my “sister”
not sarcastically speaking
that’s how we address each other
how comfortable they are
and she should be buying a pair
given hers are in really bad shape
she put it on and immediately decided that
those flip flops are hers and
she paid me on the spot
checklist next week:
- Times book fair
- 2 more sets of happy meal for its toy
- 1 pair of Cotton On black flops
- Cotton On jumpsuit, should I?
but hey
the flip flops are 19 MYR each pair
and two are going for 30 MYR
i sold mine for 15 MYR and
what entails is that
i am buying another two pairs?
haha
it’s alright
flip flops are my wardrobe essential
the more the merrier
