Did any mummies go for the sales by Reebonz or Haute avenue? Are they any good deals as compared with buying online or Europe?


What about the end of season sales in the boutique? Will there be any good buys or the sales items are very old designs?

Nearest sale I can think of here would be GSS that starts around May.. ..
Quite a few bags gets reserved by their regular customers before start of sale de...

there are some 2nd hand bag shops here. some people dont mind buying 2nd hand bags but it is truely at your own risk.


if you dont wish to go to the boutique to check out the price, you can always go to these shops to see.

I ever bought sth fr reebonz.. yes it is cheaper than boutiques and they do carry latest designs/colours for some brands.
If you cant travel to Europe, online shopping or GSS sale is the next best thing u can get.
As the stores have indicated \"end of season sale\", so the sale is usu on seasonal designs, not so on the LATEST or their Classic designs.

I m carrying a $100+ bag made in Korea.


Just curious how real are the bags made in ostrich or croc skin?

I loved Hikosen Cara when I was younger, those colourful cotton catty ones from Takashimaya basement.. I used to buy them from HK, Bangkok and Taipei as well...

Ostrich skin is nice...I dont like crocodile and snake...get the creeps.

Ostrich darkens over time especially on the handles. That is why so many ladies like to wrap their bag handles with ribbons or scarves.

I saw this TV program about croc/snake/ostrich handbags...seems for ostrich there is only a certain part of the skin which can be used...like the little protruding 'dotty'. Saw a lady carrying an ostrich skin bag. Nice.

Actually, summer sale in Hong Kong can be better than GSS.

Actually, if you dress like a trendy 20-something, this bag will look very in.

Otherwise, can look like an aunty...

So your DH must have thought that you look more like trendy 20-something to buy you bag lah.
