Sale Is On!

Almost every store in West End London is on sale, Selfridges, Liberty, Harrods and more! It is the perfect time to find that designer piece without paying for the full price tag!

Last year I found this website called Shopstyle which is a search engine for fashion. It provides all the stores that stock your favourite brands. I think it is a fantastic website. All stores carry a variation of products from the same brand. This website offers you an opportunity to browse brands carried by all stores and it offers you a wider selection from the same brand.

You can also register for sale alerts. So when your favourite brand goes on sale at any of the stockists, you will receive a sale alert via email.

I hope you like it as well! Happy shopping!

Alexa Bag

My superviser gave me a copy of Glamour magazine today. Apparently there are free Benifit cosmetics that come with the July issue so she bought 3 copies!!!! The power of marketing!!!!

Then I saw this animal print Alexa bag from Mulberry in the magazine! I want it!!!!!

Not sure how much it costs. Looked on the Mulberry website, but cannot find the bag in this leather. A small plain Alexa bag is £695 so my guess is £895. Will add it to my wishlist then for now :) We are allowed to dream at least!

Guilty Pleasure

I have a confession to make. I have bought something (or thingS rather) that was not part of my Summer 10 purchase plan. Before Autumn/Winter 10 starts, I was only supposed to buy the printed harem and a black blazer as planned previously.

The black blazer has been proven really hard to find within my budget. All the ones I liked are over £400 which means I will have to save up 3 months' shopping budget (£150/mth) before I get one. Selfridges have already sold out this Helmut Lang blazer that I wanted!!! And my size has also been sold out on Net A Porter :(. Bummer! Will have to keep looking.

All gals that love shopping would know what kind of agony I have been through!!!! After three weeks of behaving myself, I couldn't help but bought this navy striped jersey jump suit from COS. It was £45. It is so comfortable on and would be perfect for my summer holiday in September cruising around the Mediterranean sea!

Oh, and I bought this hat from Top Man as well! £16. I prefer accessories such as scarves and hats from Top Man than from Top Shop. They add some musculinity to my looks.



I guess the damage was not too severe. And I will have to watch myself if I really want to save up for the blazer. Hm...the sales are about to start. Maybe I can find one from the sales!!! :)
