Zara fever

It appears the fever still hasn't gone down over Zara.

2 Saturdays ago, this was the scene outside Zara at Bourke St. Mall.





A few days ago, when I passed by Zara, there was still a steady queue of people going in even at 9.30 in the morning

Coco Rocha's Wedding by Gilbert Le




I stumbled on this on a blogger's website (www.rantingsofashopaholic). It's a short movie of Coco Rocha's wedding to James Conran. It was shot so beautifully and you could tell the couple truly love each other. I found it especially moving when James said his vows. It was so heartfelt, I could just melt. =)

July...come faster

I've ordered a swatch book from the Angus International I/E Agency in Hong Kong a few months ago. They claim to be the "purveyors" of the finest silk from around the world. The prices were competitive when I received the swatch book but then I received an email stating they were increasing their prices.

Since I've already booked my flight and hotel, I decided to still go and check them out. If I find fabrics at the right price, I suppose I'd buy them then buy the rest here in Melbourne.

At the same time, I can go visit my friend there and we can go to Citygate Outlet. I've always been a fan of outlet shopping and July, apparently, is the sale month in Hong Kong. yey!
