A Quest of Good Bargains

That's right. The quest of good bargains AKA Summer Sale has already started yesterday! It is a sin just to be a woman sometimes as our knees usually get weak and that we can't control ourselves when seeing the signs "Sale" or "Soldes" on the windows.

I've started a search for happiness (in a concrete form) by paying a visit to an outlet in the centre commercial at Val d'Europe. Within the shopping mall itself, there are normal brands like Zara, H&M, etc. that we can actually find anywhere in town. Outside though is a little village of brand boutiques like Paul Smith, Salvatore Ferragamo, Givenchy, Celine, Camper, Diesel, VANS, Agnès b.,etc. It was amazing to see almost everyone carrying the bags of all these top brands and such a LONG queue at Polo Ralph Lauren with Asians covering up half of the space. I myself was first excited and expected to be broke home...but God saved me as *I* find the items available were rather a disappointment, be it that these items were of a few seasons ago or the good ones were already gone. One thing is true though that this place provides a better bargain than the boutiques in town...

With such a disappointment, my pursuit of happiness shall be continued.
