♥ Sunday, February 11, 2007
I shall officially declare that I hate going to Orchard. The following are the reasons for this claim;
1) Transport. Oh my god the transport just sucks if you don't have a car.
2) Popularity. One hour inside Ngee Ann City and you feel like a canned fish.
3) Price. A plain black skirt costs $69.90.
4) Choices. They either have DKNY or some random boutique store which has colourful flowery clothes. Ew.
5) Lack of skirts. I spent 3 hours inside Takashimaya alone and I couldn't find a single skirt which was appealing to the teenage taste. Besides, the miniskirts there (which are already rarely spotted) are too short for my height, because I am tall and therefore my miniskirt is a bit longer than normal. Which Takashimaya obviously doesn't have.
AAAAAAAA. Oh and I have another claim to make.
I shall officially declare, too, that I love Esprit. Below are the reasons for my preference for Esprit;
1) Unlike Takashimaya, their clothes are
(a) appealing
(b) less expensive (compared to Takashimaya's)
(c) of different age groups. This just means that there are SO MUCH MORE stuff for teenagers like me.
(d) not flowery, most of them.
2) Unlike Ngee Ann City, their shops generally
(a) are smaller with a lot of clothes and not like Gucci, or something, which are big shops with only one rack of real stuff.
(b) have more fitting rooms than the departmental store and reduces standing time.
(c) have seats for old grandmas and children to sit and be amused with.
(d) are very much more much more much more interesting.
(e) have less people, so you do not feel like a fish inside a can.
3) Esprit is open at less crowded places compared to Ngee Ann, like Wisma and Great World City. Which, in any case, just means that I can access Esprit with a 2 minute walk from my comfortable apartment.
4) They have nice skirts and pants, which is very useful for me because my lower body is humongous. In any case, they contribute to 60% of my bottoms in the wardrobe.
5) Their shirts are trendy and do not SHRINK or RUN, and they make up, too, 60% of my clothes in my wardrobe.
Yes. Esprit is the love.
Nevermind. Innocent young girls who go to bossini and Takashimaya to shop, I suggest you forget whatever I have written above and do not take offense.
