Sidestory. Awww, ย can’t get enough of G-Dragon’s Missing You because of last time’s #MOTTEinManila. #LSS I’m missing Seoul. I’m missing Manila’s fangirling opportunities. Oh my, my, my, from KDrama fangirl to KPop, welcome to my world…good luck!
Anyhow, my consolation prize….shopping opportunities here and there. Hah. There’s so much coupons, sale announcement, etc. when in California. Non-stop. I kid you not. More often than not. I’m so easy to get.
Near us, we have The Great Mall in Milpitas, which is an indoor outlet shopping mall, and we have the Westfield Valley Fair in San Jose, which is an upscale indoor shopping mall. But wait, there’s more…there’s also the San Francisco Premium Shopping Outlet in Livermore. Hmmmm. Regardless of shopping destinations, additional discounts are not hard to come by. Sign up online for free, and voila…hello, additional discounts (even for outlet stores on already discounted items) and $ off! On good times, like today’s Labor Day weekend, most stores in Westfield (regular stores not outlet so more choices and updated designs) are giving out additional 40-50% off. If you hurriedly answer the surveys, you get additional $10 off. This offsets the high sales tax. This comforts me, hahaha, I’m not so easy to get after all, I don’t buy out of whims, instead I patiently wait for good deals. Hah. ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ

One fun shopping day at The Great Mall. Shopping Finds…Polo Ralph Lauren , Bath & Body Works, Twinning with Chaseyboy with Nike Air Uptempoย |
It’s love at first try with Adidas Superstar. Knowing myself, I’ll be tempted (soon) to get those cult favorites, NMD. Well,ย it can’t be Nike all the time. But since hubby is buying… Nike, it is. If you follow me on IGย @chicsassymom , I like twinning shoes with Chaseyboy. So when he got this Nike Air More Uptempo for his school shoes, I was okay to get the matching black/pink. Hubby was so happy to indulge. But there’s more to it… hahaha

This pair reminds me so much of Lee Joon Gi oppa. #OnceaFangirlAlwaysaFangirl #Twinning ๐ #OOTD #Abercrombie #JoesJeans #Givenchy |
Because, just maybe, Lee Joon Gi oppa also likes girls that wear Abercrombie and Fitch. ๐

Eenie, Meenie, Miney, Mo…which Abercrombie coat/jacket to get? Hmmmm ๐ค |

ย It’s still so warm today. It’s too soon to get thick coats and jacket. I went for a light camouflage vest for easy transition to Fall. Originally at $90++ less additional $40 off less $10 off |

Abercrombie Kids for Chaseyboy. He’s ready for Fall. Please come sooner.ย |
We can’t wait for summer to end, with three summer months in Manila and then more summer months in California, oh my. I’m too scared of age spotsย skin cancer with over sun exposure. Personally, fashion wise, summer is the hardest look to pull off. I only like Fall andย Winter Fashion, which are reminiscent of my Seoul-ful vacay. Autumn in my heart. Cheers! ;-D
