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?...

Posted by The Bargain Hunter on at 12:38 PM

This is a very fun and “controversial” shirt that I've put on for work. I had a birthday dinner to attend later after working hours so I decided to just gamble and wear it off to the office. I found this unique shirt from Pertama Complex's Reject Shop for about RM30, if im not mistaken. I really like the very Britishness and quirkiness of the batches that scream for something provocatives, but thankfully they are too small to be seen. And you can see a small written "Ben Sherman" at the edge of the left sle...
