verdict on shoppin in us..
simply head down to the factory outlets n forget abt the malls or NYC 5th Ave (the only store u can visit is Abercombie Flagship Store at 560 5th Ave 56th Street) but expect to b drunk when u enter as the entire 4 levels haf very dim lighting n SUPER LOUD N CLUBBING music.. i suffer from headache when i was in there for the 40 mins.. not to mention that i had to run to (15mins) and fro (15mins) from 44th street to 56th street bcos uncle only gave me 1.5hrs!
we went to about FOUR premium factory outlet Mall (all the famous brands u can find in US) n 2 outlet malls haha.. since we haf the GPS.. the biggest one was WOODBURY Premium Outlets.. where i spent half of my $ on the 12 lesportsac bags.. b prepare to go WAH when u enter these factory outlets due to the following:
1. the price are much lower than those in stores n u get to try. all the things r brand new!
2. the amount of stores available (the smallest we visit haf abt 100, the biggest - woodbury has 200+ branded stores, anything from chanel to gap)
3. the amount of items in the stores made me blurred, i guess by now, i shld haf developed phobia for stores with a lot of items on display.. i simply haf no idea where to start from .. hee..
*U ned a car to get to these premium factory outlet malls bcos they r super ulu.. parking is free
*wear a cap for the hot weather , a tee shirt, slipper n shorts bcos u ned to change fast to max time unless u haf the whole day there then pls take ur time.. we only had between 1.5-4hrs to visit the 100-200++ (woodbury) stores..zzz (i wore this attire n walked into chanel, burberry, fendi etc.. the staff were friendly n did not give me weird stares like those in SINGAPORE!)
* forget abt bringing a bag, i simply tucked my wallet at the back of my shorts.. fast for payment n easy when in the changing room
*lastly, u ned a lot of $$ hee..
