This weekend’s been a mish-mash of activities but I did take some time out to finalise this post on interesting tips for shopping, be it at the markets or the mall!
A few weeks ago when my friend planned a shopping trip and asked me to be one of her stylist/ shopping advisers, I was chuffed. We had a successful trip and needless to say I rewarded myself with some goodies. How can one ignore ridiculous bargains!!
My top Tips for Malls-
-
During sales at branded stores, look for timeless, classic pieces like neutrals, blacks- that way you invest in a good quality basic piece for your wardrobe.
-
Do your research and return to the store in a week or so, you will find an even better deal, unless your smitten by a desired piece!

Mall: Tan satchel with a tiny coin purse from Nine West at 50% off also seen here |
My top Tips for Markets-
- It may not be a good idea to buy brands at the markets due to authenticity, however sometimes a pre-loved item in a good condition can be a great purchase.
- I prefer buying more accessories than clothes simply because there is usually a no return policy
Markets: Pre-loved pretty Balenciaga, was a tempting buy but didn’t take it!
Markets: Quirky, sparkly butterfly belt How did you all score at your recent shopping expeditions?
Those are some really nice tips!! I agree markets are great for accessories…more bang for your buck!!
