Our Pre-Honeymoon May 2008!! Part 3/3: The Shopping
as mentioned we went to The Mall to get a bag. i actually alrdy saw sthg i like last dec, so decided to try my luck this time round to see if they still have it.

me at The Mall
i’ve always thot tt buyin bags has alot to depend on fate, n it’s like gettin a bf! they each represent a bf of mine! haha..
story goes: my previous burberry suede bag was a 2nd choice when i bought it last dec (xx used to say tt represents him - he’s like my 2nd best choice, which made me feel bad abt it. bleah..). i had wanted to get a red-orangey suede Gucci but somehow fate had it tt i ended up wif e burberry.

my 2nd best choice - i do like it quite abit la..
so this time i decided to go look for e Gucci bag again. after abt 50min of bumpy coach ride, we finally got to e place, saw a bag which is frm e same series, but of another shape. dammit. i din quite like it but there wasnt any other bag tt i fancied, so i decided to get it. i asked for a new piece, only to be told tt there isnt one. crapp.. n so cancan n tucktuck left e place without buyin a single thing. 真无聊… went all e way there in vain!

all e hassle for nothin - me poutin at e train stn
the followin day we were in Milan alrdy, n i decided to go Chanel to get my wallet. to my delight, i found myself greeted with the latest arrival in the boutique muahaha! it was exactly e same as e wallet i wanted, except tt e CC logo is in black patent. great now, cos i wont needa worry abt dirtyin e white logo.

this was e one i wanted

this is e one i got - new vs old wallet
i actually only wanted e wallet but dt asked e sales asst if they come wif matchin bags. he said “jus see wat they have” n i was like “ok.. cool” but wasnt expectin much. i almost cldn’t believe my eyes when e sales asst brought out e bag i’ve been dreaming of all e while! of course this time it came wif e better final touch - the black CC logo haha! gosh..
story: two yrs ago i wanted to get e one wif white CC logo but it was no longer in stores, so i went thru all means to try to find it online. realised tt chanel has no factory outlet so there’s no way to get it once it’s out of season. apparently they destroy their goods after each season.. SIAO! even when i was in london i was still searchin for it online, only to find tons of replicas each time. crap..

at the boutique

my bagggg!
it was jus unbelievable lar. i think dt brought me e luck n fate. fate that there was no new piece for e Gucci bag at The Mall, even tho a sales asst did tell me tt there was earlier on tt day. n luck that we found ourselves in e boutique at e right time grabbin e last piece, cos only 5 pieces were shipped in n if we missed tt, we’d have to wait for e next shipment n by then we’d have left Milan alrdy. once again dt’s proven tt as long as we dun give up tryin, we’ll get wat we wan one day. –> lol u nv knew buyin a bag also got so much theory one rite.
like this bag, dt will always be my best ever. ok i definitely will buy more bags in future but tt’s when they’ll cease to represent my (future) bfs, cos dt’s gonna be where the search ends. weeet! sounds cool eh wahahaha! –> u never knew buying bags can represent so many things rite.. argh i’m so bo liao!

jus for fun pics

our cutey baby bear - hey i din do this! it was tuck tuck!

at La Rinascente
and then on e final day i saw this Guess sheer top. it was damn super cool. i din buy it then cos i thot it was damn exp.. costs more than S$150 argh! i think i will get it after all wahaha. it’s jus too pretty! perhaps cld get it in paris/spain! yippee!

Guess sheer top on mannequin
and that’s abt all for shoppin in Milan. so boring. eeks.
