Happy shopping in Brisbane
Frankly, I am quite bored with the stores in Singapore when it comes to shopping. I know, its already a shopping paradise and I should not really be complaining but I was still really excited to be shopping in Brisbane. I think its fortunate that the shops in Brisbane close at around 5pm or else I will be much poorer from my trip there. After 3 hours of shopping, I only managed to visit Target, Witchery and Sportsgirl. Its so fun to shop there simply because Fatgirl does not have a size problem there. Ok, the size problem still exists but at least I am easily able to find clothes in my size there. Sportsgirl was having sales but nothing in there caught my eye. I spurgled on a really expensive Witchery top. Feel a little guilty now but I am still convinced that it was a unique top and I will have use for it sometime. Why hasn't anyone decide to franchise Witchery in Singapore. Anyone in the fashion industry reading this??? Please, please bring Witchery to Singapore. I really like the stuff there although they are not cheap. But the designs are lovely and the service there is good too. The salesgirl was so good that she nearly convinced me to get a pink top that I had tried on. I would bought it if not that I have already lost count of how many pink tops I own currently!
Target is a good place to shop but searching for the good stuff takes time and effort. Further, it seems like a popular store since alot of the nice stuff were out of my size. Looking on the bright side, it means that I was in a "sick" way, saving money!! Ha ha. Anyway, I did walk out of the store with a denim skirt and a work top.
Since I was at Myer Centre, of course I had to pay a visit to Chocolate Boulevard and buy some homemade fudge and chocolate. Yum yum. This store is really worth a visit, the homemade chocolate and fudge is reasonably priced and taste really good. But I ran out of time at that and had no time to visit Meyer although they were having sales. Sigh.

funny... "The Witchery" is a really posh Scottish restaurant in Edinburgh... located right in the Old Town on the Royal Mile. i had a pre-graduation lunch there with mummy and papa some years ago as a celebration!
Target is a big american chain here that was supposedly born in Minnesota... but i wonder if it might be the same thing in Aussie land.
wish you could have taken me along... =c)
& thanks for the jimmy-e-card!!!

Yep, its the same Target! Wish you had been there too! You would have loved the Surfers Paradise. The beach was really gorgeous!
