it's that time of the year again!

sale sale sale!
i have got drool coming down my chin, my legs are all jittery with excitement and i can practically hear my credit cards screaming for help (or is that my husband?)

starting this week, there are many Sales going on.
these are a few of them...

Coach Sale
My mama-in-law was kind enough to give me her pass to go for Coach's VIP Preview Sale!
I really like Coach Sales. The past sales i went to (not preview sales though) gave me 30% off the handbags! And with these sales, i have managed to "grow" my handbag collection.
soon, i will be able to have a "handbag closet" just like the one Juliet Draper has in Cashmere Mafia Season 1... *melt*

and here are the handbags i am looking out for.


Resort Leather Shoulder
i absolutely love the unique knot-ty handle on this. and the colour! looks as yummy as a bubblegum!


Canvas Leah Tote
a rather unusual yet interesting monogram look to this. very edgy!
it comes with a detachable long strap, for you to wear across your body.

these are quite NEW bags. so i am unsure if they are available in malaysia. or even on sale!
my other options are...

Ergo Convertible Tote
i have always loved this matt gold look. and this is so chic!

Soho Leather Satchel
Gorgeous red. 'nuff said.

Leah Wristlets
*sigh*. i can never get enough of their wristlets. best things to be created ever.
it may be time to replace my well-worn beige wristlet that mcdreamy bought for me. and they also have the nice colourful striped ones! (hopefully in malaysia too!)
this multicoloured design was also in the form of a clutch maybe 3-4 seasons ago. but i couldn't afford it at that time. so i missed it. *sigh*

Burberry Sale
i have never bought anything from burberry. cause i usually know about their sales
WAY TOO LATE. by the time i get there...everything is GONE (except for some not really nice ones). however, this time...because i am a hsbc customer, i received an sms.

ooOooo...
so, maybe i will just "check it out".
as usual, before i go to any store, i always "investigate" online.
here are some bags that caught my eye online. again, might not be available in Malaysia. but we will see.

Baby Beaton Tote
i try not to buy conventional bags (the rebel in me). so, i prefer unique looking ones. like this!
a drawstring bag. prefer it in black trimmings though.

Haymarket Shoulder Tote
another interesting shape. love the belt-like buckle.
Drawstring Tote
another interesting matt gold. or as they call it...goldstone.
i am very interested in across body bags right now. think it looks effortlessly stylish. i like.

Isetan Sale
starts this Friday 28 November 2008. i am only interested in one thing.
the nine west shoes that i totally fell in love with more than a month ago.
the...'infiniti'...


luxurious suede and a cute buckle at the front. what sold me were the heels. looks chunky, but if you look from another angle, it looks really slim.
and despite the 4-inch height, it is super comfy.
*melt*
i think, even if it is not on sale...i will still get this. simply because i will need it for my costume. and after doing the "investment-calculation" (based on amount paid and no. of times used)...this will be a good pair of "investment".

i "heart" nine west.

FJ Benjamin Warehouse Sale


housing all their brands, like Gap, Banana Republic, Guess, La Senza and others...i have had many wonderful (and not so wonderful) experiences at this sale.
usually packed to the brim, you would need to be super determined to fight through the crowd.
the discounts are rather good.
i love to get basic tops from banana republic here. usually i can get it between RM50-RM80 per top. not bad.

so, if you are not doing anything this weekend...make your way to Park Royal Hotel (Orchid Ballroom on Level 2) from 10am to 7pm.

TIPS:
  1. Don't bring a handbag. Cause you would need to submit it at the front. Just bring a wristlet, which you can dangle on your wrist (duh!) and hence not obstructing your shopping galore.
  2. Wear a tank top/spaghetti strap top underneath your top. this way, you don't have to queue up for the dressing booths (VERY LONG QUEUE). better still, if you also pair this with a skirt...that way you can try on bottoms at the same time.
i don't think i can make it for this sale. too busy a weekend. *sigh*...maybe next time.

so my fellow shopaholics...SHOP SHOP SHOP...and SHOP till you DROP!
however, don't spend uselessly. there IS a credit crunch (read: recession) coming up soon (the good citizen in me...muahahaha)

xoxo
