I'm a shopaholic but not quite close as that of Rebecca Bloomwood's addiction. ;p If I really don't need it, I try not to buy it, though there are times that I find an excuse to do so, like for future need. Haha!
And I would like to think that I am a reasonable shopper. Most of the time, I don't really go for branded stuff. As long as it is comfortable and looks good on me, I buy it. Who needs a branded piece of clothing when it doesn't suit you? In other words, "hindi mo keri dalhin". Most of the good finds I have are from St. Francis Square and Landmark-Trinoma. :)
Anyway, since my birthday was coming up, I decided to look at some clothes. I intended to buy one top but ended up buying 2 tops and a dress. From the office, I went straight to Trinoma and looked around the boutiques to find a good buy. Normally, I'd go straight to Folded&Hung but they don't have new pieces that suit my taste at the moment so I decided to explore the other shops.
First stop: Freeway
The items on sale at the store looked good so I decided to try on a light yellow blouse and a black&white dress. I wasn't able to take pictures though when I tried on the dress because I was too lazy to take off my pants. Haha! In the end, I decided to buy the light yellow blouse. I'll just take a photo of it and post it next time.
Second stop: Penshoppe
I already looked around the shop days before and I was able to spot 2 nice tops.
 |
| Round neck red and white-striped blouse, worth Php 329. |
 |
| Gray razorback with flower bolero jacket, worth Php 899. |
I purchased the first one. Not only was it cheaper but I really liked the red shade and decided that it will be what I will wear on my birthday. The second one looked cute but I should have gotten a size bigger than what I have requested. I guess, since I was too lazy to try on the right size, I decided to just not get it.
Third stop: Tomato
Whenever I want to buy a really nice and chic dress, I go to Tomato. I just love their collection of clothes. They got really nice pieces which are really affordable and reasonably-priced.
I tried on 2 dresses.
 |
| Satin silk dress with flower designs, worth Php 750 |
 |
| Green cotton dress with flower designs, worth Php 700 |
Though I really liked the green dress, I chose the satin silk dress instead. I chose it because it's not body-hugging so I can hide those baby fats. ;p The material is also ideal for the hot weather we have right now. Also, it can be used in semi-formal occasions and on casual gatherings as well.
All 3 boutiques are located at the 1st level of the Trinoma Mall.
P.S. I discovered a new camwhoring activity : taking photos inside fitting rooms! :))
