Hollister + Another July baby

And so, I have been in Hong Kong for close to 2½ years (with a 5 months break in between when I moved back to Singapore) and there are still many places that I haven't stepped foot into. One such place was Kowloon Tong. So when Rugrats mentioned that the first Hollister outlet opened at the shopping centre there, we decided to drag our lazy asses down to Festival Walk check out what the hype was. It isn't that far from my place, really. Just a 10 minutes mini-bus ride to Mongkok east  then 1 station to Kowloon Tong. But like I said, I was feeling lazyyy...

Since we hadn't had a proper meal for the day, we headed to EXP to have an early dinner. The place served mainly noodles and pizzas and is located beside the ice skating rink in the mall. We got a table just beside the rink. It was crazy packed! We got to see people spinning (and falling down, haha) while waiting for our mains. 


Pretty decent food. I will come back to try the grapefruit prawns soba next time! It was sold out ):

And now for the first look at Hollister, which is the sister brand of A&F. From the outside, the place looked like a club. Dark decorations, long queue and blasting pop music. The inside was dimly lit and I found it hard to shop properly. They had super yummy sweet smelling body lotions and sprays that I was so tempted to get!


Rugrats was on a shopping spree and me being the dutiful girlfriend queued for the cashier for 30 mins and chilled at the comfy sofas (camwhoring!) while waiting for him to comb the shop again, just in case he missed out that Size 31 berms. Haha.


Dropped by Accessorize after, but I couldn't decide which box clutch to get to match my brown maxi for my cousin's wedding. :$


Went for shisha and drinks at the outdoor bar at Mira Hotel after. Shisha was good, nice and smooth. But service was slow and their cocktails were not to my liking. Will stick with classic beer the next time! Great place to chill, though weather was a killer so will probably be back to this alfreso bar in winter.

Celebrated another July baby's birthday. Happy birthday TC! :D:D:D


Didn't bring a camera hence the low quality photo. Anw, we ordered an apple crumble pie from the place. It was really good, buttery flaky crust. Try it!


One thing to note: There is a min charge of HK$200 per head, excluding shisha.

I am into folded jeans and cropped tops recently. Got this cheery top when I was at the supplier's. Wore it with haviannas (so singaporean right!) to BCP and shopping earlier in the day. Glamm-ed it up for the night gather with a pair of "bondage heels" as my friends called it and a studed clutch. I love how different accessories can bring a look from day to night! :D


Top :: Off my supplier's racks!
Bottom :: Topshop
Accessories :: Tiffany & Co Charm Bracelet (love from ex-colleagues <3)

Rugrats is watching Casa de mi Padre, some Will Ferrell show in Spanish while I am blogging away. I hate retarded movies like this. And he's laughing a lot. Honestly, he reminds me of my dad sometimes. Haha. Maybe girls do fall for guys that are a reflection of their dads. Hmmm, food for thought. Have a good week ahead! xxx
