Takashimaya SALE

The weekend was fulfilling and relaxing. Met up with my mum on Friday for a shopping spree. She wanted to get a cheong-sam for my wedding day. Finally got one at 'Madame Butterfly' and I do admit it looks nice on her perhaps of her slender figure. The cheong-sam cost about $200 plus with a discount of 20% from the boutique and additional 10% discount by using Taka card. End up paying much lesser. (Note: The cheong-sam she's wearing was not her pick.)

While mum was busy with her selection, I'd chose a sexy piece too for try on. It was a black silky body hugging cheong-sam with big floral. Wanted so much to buy for my tea ceremony but too bad, my mum stopped me. Waste of money! Same old thingy that mum always comments. Sob sob ... BUT according to the sales rep, I do look very nice and sexy. Kind of 60s look, back to the olden Shangainese days.

So what was my gal doing? Oh well, she was sleeping comfortably at her pram. While mummy and granny shopped peacefully. If not, we would not have the luxury to shop.

1 item down and lunch was settled at Crystal Jade La-Mien. Lunch over and next, it's time to shop for my item. Bought a pair of shoe from Bonia.

I can still remember the brand tagline vividly.

BONIA - 'It brings up the Italian in You'.

The leather is soft and it fits well according to the shape of my feet. No wonder people pay a premium for a good pair of Italian shoe. It's a good investment afterall. No regrets, hee ... the good thing was managed to get a discount too. Needless to say, 20% and additional 10% again.

Hang on guys, the sale is not over. What I meant was, the sale went on from Friday till Sunday late night at 10pm.

Then again, on Sunday night, went to Taka again with hubby. He bought a belt and a pair of shoe. All from Taka and specially in preparation for our special day.

A belt, a wallet, a ring and a trouser are given as a gift from my mum. It was a traditional custom that most Cantonese follow even until now. It said that all mother-in-law has to buy the above items for their new son-in-law as a dowry. And I believe there are lots more to follow.

Well, I supposed my next bloggie would be some topics related to our wedding preparation.

So guys, sit back and I definitely welcome you to read my dreamy bloggie more often as this dreamer is going to have a new set of topics to talk and gossip about.

Sale is over and what's next? We shall see ...
