so today it was our same rest day, and we were not expecting to buy his suit already.. we thought magiikot-ikot muna kame. first stop was our neighbor mall Al Ghurair, we checked out G2000 (which normally has gorgeous suits and tuxes) but today their items were horrible! i guess since most of those were for sale and not their regular ones.. so we had a quick lunch at ever-reliable McDo first then off we went to City Center.
to give u an idea honey really wants a navy blue suit. like what most of you know it is his favorite color (hence our motif, aside from Pink, which is mine :D).. and i have been selling the idea of a lighter-colored tux/suit to him for months now coz i really would love for him to stand out as the Groom (coz all the entourage will be wearing the same dark suits right?).. but ayaw niya tlg.. i wasn't planning to give up just like that though hehe..
but then at City Center i was kinda losing some hope na, i was thinking hmm we might need to go to the high-end malls like Dubai Mall or Burjuman coz most of the shops in city center were not exactly my type (choosy pa no?!) and then yung mga gusto ko (CK, Armani, Banana Rep, well u get the picture ;D) were not on sale yet :(.. until at last we dropped by one of our fave shops here Zara :)
i love Zara. it's not as snobbish as the other shops and although most of their items' price tags are astronomical, they do have some slightly affordable pieces here and there. their items are so classy and i love their knitwear and shoes! but i love it most when there's a shopping festival going on (which is often here in Dubai hehe), they are one of the shops who really go all out on sale! one of my first pieces i bought here are mostly from Zara (and Mango yum!).
today Zara did not disappoint us. we went straight to the Suits area and i just randomly picked a suit at the back of the hangers and lo and behold, i was suddenly holding this really gorgeous yummy navy blue suit! its got really cool buttons (a huge deal for us coz we both agree most of the suits'buttons are so boring hehe) and the upside?? it's exactly honey's size! believe me this is a huge deal coz my honey is a little on the thin side (so unfair!) and most of the European sizes here are too big for him.. i showed it to him and he smiled! tapos sinukat nya, OMG ANG GWAPO NG HONEYCOH! :D i fell in love with him all over again hehe :P and he was grinning like crazy, he loved it! i must agree, navy looks great on him :) the style, color and fit were all working for him! we just had to have the sleeves shortened and the length shortened a bit too but it was all good to go.. it will be ready (post alteration) on Wednesday and we're both so excited! yippeeee! :D
here are a few shots.. di nga lang malinaw or maayos coz he was taking pics of himself in the fitting room hehe :P at pa-serious suplado effect lang yan, don't be fooled haha! we decided he fit it with light pink shirt :) promise i will post better ones as soon as makuha namen :)
this one at least shows the suit through the mirror :)
the cool button!
paangas effect :)we really cannot wait to see it sa Wednesday.. si hon nga lang kinakabahan, ako din tuloy! :(
