Shopping in HK

Went shopping last night for the first time..I know, I'm amazed with myself that I lasted this long without spending money on clothes..Even when the clothes are SO tempting. ugh. Every store is amazing and there's a mall on every block, no joke.

Went to a place that I can't pronounce and just got a shirt and I was only in there for about 15 mins so Eric was really happy with me :) The way they do shopping in Hong Kong is so smart, they only put out one size of each item of clothing, if you want a different size you have to ask..but most shirts come in a size called "free" which basically means "one size fits most". The shirts that are "free" sized are usually pretty flowy or baggy shirts to begin with. If you try on a free sized shirt and you ended up wanting to buy it, they grab you a new one from the back and keep the "try on" specific shirt out on the floor..again, SO smart. They brought me out my shirt while it was still in a plastic bag, opened it up for me and asked me if I wanted to try it on again to make sure it fit. I was amazed. This helps so much! You don't end up buying a shirt with deodorant marks or make up stains. seriously so nice :)

Ended the night checking out some bars with one of Eric's coworkers. They have a place here called Carnegies and it's in downtown WanChai...it's basically a smaller, cooler Dixie where everyone (boys and girls) can dance on the bar. We'll be taking quite a few of our friends there when they visit ;) :P
