Measuring Up

Anita had her clothes ready for Raya already and had decided what would be the theme colour for us this year. Then, it was time for us to get our measurements taken for our clothes - all three of us, Idlan, Irfan and I.

In the years before, we went to a tailor in Melawati, but he tended to prepare our clothes late. On one occasion, it only arrived on the evening before Raya and it turned out that the top did not fit well. It was too late to make any alteration by then.

So, we went to another place this time and we were promised that the clothes would be ready a week before Raya. Hopefully they are true to their words .... Too late to back off now since I had already made the payments ....

The Return of Hilfiger

We spend the best part of the afternoon doing some clothes shopping at KLCC. After stops at Marks and Spencer among others, I finally bought some shirts at Tommy Hilfiger at Parkson.

When I was in the UK, Tommy had been my favourite brand. However, in the last 5 years, the quality of its product had deteriorated badly. Even the outlet abroad did not have good enough selection.

I was pleasantly surprised by the new selection, that I ended up buying more than I should. It was so much, that I was enrolled into their VIP club for discounts and free alterations. Nice!

It looked like I have used up my clothing provision for the next three months ......
