Yay!

Hey guys, guess what?

I finally managed to get my hands on that BritishIndia jacket I've been eyeing for some time. If you guys have ever shopped before in BritishIndia, you will realize, that the prices are STEEP!! How steep? Somewhere in the range of 140 SGD for a scarf. And that's a small scarf at that. Why is it steep though? Well, I had a conversation with one of the staff there and found out that BritishIndia clothes are ALL hand-sewn and hand-made. This means, that only a few pieces are produced for any one particular design and so, in actual fact, you are not only paying for the quality, you're also paying for the exclusivity. So boys and girls, if you do want to buy anything from BritishIndia, you'd better get it quick, because if you tarry too long, you might end up not getting the shirt or blouse you fancy.

By the way, if you have walked into any BritishIndia outlet, you realize that the ambiance in there is POSH!! If I have to describe it, I'd say the decor is very colonial British Indian. Yeah yeah... so sue me... But you will find that it's posh.. And also, I think BritishIndia has their own deejays to mix their music and play... I mean, the music they play is not your run of the mill Power 98 FM kind... it's the quote: 'Welcome to BritishIndia' unquote and then the ambient music starts playing.

Well, I've had enough of staring at the screen like a nutter typing this down. I think its time to take a break before I really damage my eyes... Then I'll have to wear specs as to which my sister is insanely jealous as she had always taken care of her eyes, while I haven't and I still don't need to wear anything while she has had LASIK done to correct her vision... But I digress...

Until next time then...
