Ok, I'm officially back, but totally unsatisfied with this trip.
Touched down on the sunny shores on Tuesday, got back to work on Wednesday.
Big big bummer, cos I was feeling out of sorts for the past 2 days, like I didn't have the energy or some drive to move.
Anyways, BKK has changed quite a bit from the last I had visited it.
More shopping centres, less night markets, and everything was getting so commercialised.
I guess the amount of shops in Platinum Mall and Chatuchak kinda overwhelmed me that I was quite lost as to what to pick out and buy. =(
Double bummer was that people weren't as friendly as previous, and everything was just way overpriced.
We'd got cheated quite a couple of times, and had to tell ourselves that it's their ricebowls they are doing this for.
On the brighter note, the hotel was fabulous, food was glorious, company was awesome.
The hotel had arranged for a junior suite for us (which I really didn't think much of).
But it was good - a kitchenette upon the entrance, a living area (complete with telly and sound sound system) slightly further in.
The room was to the left and it had quite a view of the Pratunam area, from the 20th storey.
They had decorated the comfy king sized bed with rose petals and rolled up towel swans as well =)
Loots wise, as mentioned above, I wasn't very satisfied with the buyings.
But I had still managed to fish out some nice pieces for the shop.
Bear with me, the shop is still going through some bits of changes and hopefully it will make its grand opening by the end of nxt month.
I was quite happy when I got these
1st up: 4 pairs of shoes (seems like I've bought a year's worth of shoes already)
melissa x vivienne westwood jellies
I'm totally in love with this pair =)
melissa x the little prince
I'm into the Little Prince, and I knew this pretty piece was a must.
I saw this pair in HK last Sept and I knew my heart was still itching for it. =)
So 3 pairs of melissa pumps and the last was a pair of wood clog-wedges.
Something alone the line, but the wedges were very comfy.
So at 120baht, it was a steal!
Catch me next as I will share some cosmetic loots (Nars and VS) in my next post. =)
