Forget Levi’s! BUFFALO is the denim label to lookout for..

Well Chinese New Year is around the corner. So i was out with Nurul going around hunting for bargain deals around Marina Bay. I have been wanting to get new jeans for myself, one that is stylish and yet unknown to the rest of Singapore. Levi’s and Guess are out. River Island is interesting. Lucky for me, i was lazy the other day and went to park near Pan Pacific Hotel. Unknown to me, all this while lay a quaint, sophisticated looking shop stating 50% discount sale coming from a brand that i have never heard of before.

 Buffalo by David Bitton

The shop lies at 02-320 Marina Square.

Indeed, like Ted Baker, it carries it’s own style and designs. Unlike the typical mass produced clothes out there, Bufalo maintains its own originality. Their jeans are great ranging from relaxed fit to the hip slim jeans.  Furthermore, it’s shirts and especially it’s jackets are cool which ooze sexiness with a touch of class. It certainly feels good to wear anything from this shop. The price is quite expensive though it is relatively affordable now during it’s sale. Tee’s are going for like $30, shirts around $60 and jeans going around $100. IT’s way better than Levi’s or Guess! Trust me.

Here are some examples.

  

Happy shopping people…

Year End Shopping FOR MEN

Well its time to show you guys my great deals from the year-end sales. Honestly, Christmas Sale is not as good as the Year-End Sales cause the shops want to clear their goods for the incoming merchandise. Went shopping with my best shopping buddy, NURUL! In total, i spent $343 on clothes. It certainly beats shopping and its so fun to count the savings you made. Honestly, don’t spend for the whole year, save it all to splurge on the great year-end sales. Furthermore, i shall be showcasing my friend, Azhari, buys as well. We mainly shopped at two places, Orchard Road and VivoCity.

These are my buys.
First off, i got two tops from Esprit both at $19.90 each. Esprit is having a 50% off. I kinda like the cutting and always have been a fan of Esprit designs. Azhari got a limited edition MTV European Music Awards 2007 jumper with cool rainbow trimmings at the ends around $90.

Then i got 2 tops at $20 and a pair of shades at $13 from Topman. The cool shirt is going for $60. They are having 60% sale. Wanted to get a pair of skinny jeans but then thought otherwise.

After that we visited River Island. River Island was simply fantabulous. It slashed all items prices by 50%. I nearly went mad being spoilt for choice with the clothes. I got myself 3 shirts, each costing me a cheap $50 considering it is a UK brand. The jeans which has dual colour is going for only $80 from $169.

Well, we then pop into the next shop, Pull & Bear. They are having crazy offers with tops going for $9.90 , jackets at $49.90 and jeans at $59.90. I got for myself two tops. A t-shirt at $19.90 and a long sleeve at $24.90.

After that, it was to none other than Zara. I was actually kinda disappointed with them as i had a few t-shirts in mind. Infortunately, they hid them only placing their the old stock for sale. They have a 30% off. The only thing that caught my eye was this hat going for a mere $15.90.

Finally, the Buy of the Day was done none other than by Azhari. He got a nice cool cutting shirt with excellent cloth material (seems awfully like the Hadi Mirza shirt) from Ted Baker. Ted Baker is going at 50% off with all its merchandise. Indeed a steal at a cool $90.

Well people, am $300 bucks poorer now but indeed it’s all worth it. Can’t wait for school to begin so i can start showing off my prized catches. Haha. Enjoy the holidays and have a great 2008!

Year End Shopping Fever

I love end of the years. Besides big bonuses and long holidays, everywhere I go I can see the ‘S’ sign. SALE! Yes!! Its that time of the year again; after Christmas – ‘End of Season SALE’.

I am not a shopaholic but I love indulging in good deals. And recently I splurge about S$300 on just tops. I went crazy walking around VivoCity with my bestest shopping buddy, Fai. Uh huh.. Fai is my shopping buddy. Yes, eventhough he is my boyfriend, that doesn’t stop him from being crudely honest. And if the shoes don’t fit, he’ll straight point it out to me. He had to made sure I shopped within my budget. I exceeded by S$7.

We started our shopping agenda by heading to Mango first, as they are having a crazy sale where you can get S$90 over tops at half-price. I had actually eyed one of the tops there, but regrettably they were no more in stock and the other outlets have sizes too big for me or they are damaged. However, that didn’t stop me from getting a long-sleeved orange Mango basic tee at S$14. The usual price for a basic tee from Mango is S$25.

So, on to our next stop which I literally went crazy. Forever 21. There weren’t any signs out on their glass panels indicating a SALE but as me and Fai moved around the outlet, we were carrying outfits on hangers on both arms. YES!! I was mental! The kind salesgirl took it from us as we continue going around picking more clothes. Neatly tuck at the back of the store is the sales corner.

When Forever 21 first came to Singapore I thought their items were over-priced. Until my recent shopping spree I find that they were incredibly affordable. My total damage from Forever 21 is S$177. I bought a total of 5 tops from there. All the tops I bought were below S$50 (can you believe it?!)

These are some of the cute finds available at Forever 21.

After going crazy at Forever 21, I bought 2 basic long sleeve tees yet again from Zara for S$12.90 each. Fai also managed to get a few steal from River Island. They were going at half-price. And if I didn’t exceed my budget I would have added more clothes to my year-end shopping collection from River Island.

My next stop will be the Metro Expo Sale. Though its just right behind my house (technically speaking). I’ve yet to have a look at what they have to offer. I love buying lingeries at SALES!

I must say that year-end shopping is the best time to get good deals. You can get good brands at offers from 50 percent to 70 percent. And I am currently satisfied at what I have bought. Can’t wait to wear them. And oh.. now I will always shop at Forever 21.
