Today's trip to The Fort Bazaar was fruitful. I got two wool peacoats from Clothes Minded (+639178470426) for P1700 apiece. Not bad at all. I think I can do without the trenches for now (although there were some for spring). The heavier stock will come in September, I'm told.
I also bought thermal wear (P1400 asking price, P1100 last price) from another stall selling socks, gloves and thermals. They're more expensive than those at Greenhills Shopping Center (P1200 asking price, P1000 last price), but at least I don't have to go back to the tiangge. The socks and gloves at The Fort are more expensive, too. It's P550 versus P150 for gloves made of similar material. Good thing I know better.
Thanks to Cherry Uy of ShopCrazy for the tip.

ReplyDeletelovely peacoats! i especially like the red-wine one.
ReplyDeletei must confess that i did a bit of Photoshop trickery on that one because i couldn't find a web image in the exact shade. a little cropping was necessary.ü
ReplyDeletedont forget to send us pictures with you wearing them– and not just standing in front of your mirror! :)
