Last Sunday evening we met up with some old friends from London who came here for a break and of course we brought them out for dinner and a taste of the local scene. They asked to buy fun goods at fun prices and where else would we bring them?
Yes, like all China Towns of the universe, the streets were filled with anything you can perceive in shopping centres but of course at the most affordable rates; it all depends how good a haggler you are. If you are bold and not shameful, call your shots. You may just meet your lucky star and get the goods at the price you ask for.
My friends gave me the privilege of course. So, they asked for Ray Ban sunglasses but only at RM10 -20. They got them with my skilful haggling. They asked to pay me but I told them it was ok; my early Christmas gifts for them !
Petaling Street is fun; you get to taste local cuisines and buy bags, clothes, shoes, pearls, jade, underwear and name them if you like them for the moment. When you bring them home and you feel not happy with them you can always put them aside; the pinch is not painful.
It has been some months since I last visited the place and to my friend's astonishment she saw a display of the latest craze in her hometown being offered...
Don't they look tempting?; you can buy a couple and wear them on different occasions...
Yes; it's the Cath Kidston series !
She told me the varieties here out beat the ones in her hometown ...at one point she asked; "Are they real?"
What do you think?
Can anything be real here ?
They can look real though; only if you don't touch and go too close...
Back home we too have some Cath Kidston products.
Can you guess which is real?
How about this? It can be RM20 or 24 pounds.
And this? Real or not?
Hey what about this? Is it from London or Petaling Street?
Sara is crazy over the products.
She used to tolerate the not so real ones; but now she says she is working and so she will only go for the genuine ones.
Who will know the difference?
Nobody except yourself.
What will you wear?
