Random Buys fm Taipei


While one of my closest friends was in Taipei, we were shopping at Afternoon Tea which happened to be having a sale. I was eyeing this pair of bedroom slippers (wonderful for winter when my feet encounter cold hardwood floors), and was hemming and hawing about buying them. I eventually put them back, and was surprised when I saw my dear friend purchasing them as a gift for me!

Here are my new beautiful bedroom slippers from Afternoon Tea :)


I had bought this "rose" tank top in pink for myself and a friend a few months ago. As my friend had worn hers and her colleague liked it so much and wanted one, I decided to buy a few for my other friends ...

Jeffrey Campbell Shoes


Jeffrey Campbell is a relatively new brand to Taipei. At least, I hadn't seen it around till a few months ago. I think that as part of their new launch in Taiwan, they specially designed these shoes for the Taiwan market only ...



I'm hoping these will be my new go-to shoes to replace my fav Charles & Keith wedges that recently gave out on me at the HK airport.


DVF Dresses


Lately, I've been rather mad about DVF dresses. It sorta started after I visited the DVF outlet at Citygate Outlet Mall in Hong Kong last month, where I picked this dress up:

DVF Evrin Silk Jersey 3/4 sleeve wrap dress in Large Flower Tile print ...
(I'd initially thought the print would be too large/loud, but I was attracted to the colours and the mosaic-like print, and surprisingly, it looked good on.)


Then, when Hubby asked me if I wanted to order anything fm the States cos he was heading there for business, I started surfing the net, and was sorely tempted by this:

Laney Shirtdress in Twiggs, & ...


Terrazzo Dress ...
(I really like the cheeriness of this print and colour)


However, I wasn't sure what size to order the above in, so off I went to scout for a DVF boutique in Taipei, hoping they would carry the above dresses. Turned out that DVF is still a rather new label to Taiwan. As such, they only had one boutique in Taipei, and they didn't carry any of the dresses above. They were having a sale though, and I managed to snag these dresses at 30%-50% off :)
