Tips For Shopping Part Three: BE REALISTIC

Posted by The Bargain Hunter on Wednesday, February 20, 2008 at 9:21 AM

The most important aspect that you should keep on reminding yourself while shopping is definitely your own budget. Unless you were a gazillionaire, each of your spending should be carefully watched. No judgement but there are a lot of working-office-job-get-paid-later-on-monthly-people who likes to purchase one single thing for one big chunk of money and later on stucked with that item for the rest of their lives leaving a big sum of debt in their account (the most annoying some, keep on whining about it!) . This is something SERIOUS.

LV's coin purse? No no, it is a pure leather souvenir from Bangkok


As a hardcore shopper, I definitely looking for something that is affordable, down to earth kind of pricing because I UNDERSTAND THE LEVEL OF SPENDING THAT I NEED NOT TO CROSS OVER due to my 8.30-5.30 salary. Logically, again, unless you were a gazillionaire, what the heck are you going to do with a RM3,000 bag (an average price for designers') when you can diversify it to several warehouses' branded items and you can constantly doing your own shopping every week giving you a variety of looks plus a few hundreds more for nice dinners, coffee etc. Sorry guys, I have a every-week-must-have-at-least-one-new-item policy and I dont do the so called wish lists. That's why you never see any wishlists of designer items here. Of course if I have been given any choices, I want all my working shirts from Raoul, all my luggages from Louis Vuitton or all my shoes from Gucci but life is not some kind of a Lalaland. It's either you could afford buying something or not. Fashion is practical. You wear fashion. Not dreaming of something you couldnt afford it!

Tips For Shopping Part Duex: BE DIFFERENT

I personally think that fashion is by far the most suitable platform for you to play around with creativity, eccentricity and individualism (but dont go overboard unless you are the late Isabella Blow!). Unless you are too self-concsious about your own body image, etc; it can be fun for having unique pieces of clothing that you can laugh it out loud like my own Key Ng's two-tiered of neck collar which one of my friend called it "like a cheerleader's uniform". So dont be afraid to be different!

Tips For Shopping Part Une: ALWAYS GO FOR LABELS

Posted by The Bargain Hunter on Friday, December 28, 2007 at 10:37 AM

There are a lot of buyers and online users asking me, "How do you shop?", "Any tips for shopping?" or "Where did you get those items?". One word, labels (that you can afford, of course!). I have to admit that whenever and wherever I go for shopping, I will always go for the label first rather then the design itself. Why? Simply because of the quality. For example, if you are looking for a nice printed t-shirt, it is prominently noticeable that the ones with label, the prints are more vivid and the material is washable friendly like this British India T. Why you have to pay for the less quality ones when you can have a nice RM19.90 T like this? The point is, you have to rigorously go and look out for warehouses and sales, pick a nice one and eventually pay less. But remember, discounted items are very limited interms of sizes and good designs. So, it is vital to choose which one that will look as worth it as the price that you are going to pay. Do not buy pieces that didnt look "expensive". Good Luck!
