Up in the Kaveman’s Dig

I think the grand opening was on thursday night (March 8th) Hongkie celebs such as dodo cheng, 熊黛林, Annie Lau (劉心悠), Josie Ho, Amanda S, and another 300 or so VIPs, etc. attended apparently, so a pretty big deal…… we went on the actual opening day on the 10th. Apparently people had been waiting in line since 8am (store opened at 11am). We decided to avoid the crowd and go in the afternoon, but as you can see in the pics…the line was ridiculously long…starting from the lkf escalators and doubling back to the entrance, I guess to get to the front of the line would take about 2 hours. So we went for a hot tea at Tsui Wah to pass the time and hope the line would subside. Dammit doens’t this just go to show that Hongkie fashion sucks so much that people *need* to go and shower themselves with some proper european fashion. But mind you I ended up spending just or a thousand bucks buying none other than 2 pairs of jeans, 2 shirts, boxer shorts, sunnies and accesories. The jeans were a great buy though @ HKD$249 a pair, you really are looking at low end Giordano type prices for euro style fitting. Really comparable to Zara at half the price or even more. So yeah I also succumbed to the H&M buzz but what better thing to do than go shopping on a saturday afternoon (in fact we ended up going on sunday afternoon, and only cued for like 15 mins…) But I guess the actual gimmick was the M by Madonna brand making it’s world debut in HK. Girls: if u wanna shop, this’d be your paradise, easily spend a day here no sweat. Guys: if u wanna shop, don’t bring your other half as it could cause massive waiting for her, choosing, browsing, arguing, browsing delays, of course tell any girl I told you this and I’ll deny it with a passion. haha. Oh and keep the reciept boys and girls cuz everything apart from swimwear and lingerie are refundable. (I only kept the one pair of jeans and 2 necklaces…, everyhing else was refunded)….haha.
