Woke in the morning stoned like a drunkard. Washed up, threw some clothes on, threw my trusty jacket on and then headed to the car. It was Factory Outlet day!! Haha…we’d already done our research previously…luckily I met an LA native during the conference in Mexico and he gave me some tips on which outlets to visit.. haha..
We were to go to the Desert Hills Premium Factory Outlet, located in Cabazon, at the east-end of LA. It was about an hour’s drive away…
HC was feeling quite comfy by now to be driving on US roads…He was speeding and overtaking some other cars on the highway…to my horror of course….I reminder him that we didn’t opt for insurance on our rental car…and he drove less fast after that ahhaha….;p
Reached the place at 10-plus am and headed to Mac for breakfast…After which, we hit the stores…
Wah lau. Was my first reaction when I saw the stores. I didn’t know where to start…130-over stores…lots of branded stuff.
Liz Clairborne, Hugo Boss, Armani, Samsonite, Nike, Nine West, Gap, Polo Ralph, Calvin Klein, Levis, Coach, Gucci, Banana Republic, Timberland, Sunglass Hut, BCBG Max Azria, Bebe, Max Mara, OshGosh, Anne Klein, True Religion, Miss Sixty, Jockey, DKNY, Ermenegildo Zegna, Callaway, Billabong, Tag Heuer, etc, etc, etc…
We walked and walked…separately though and combed through the entire 130-somdething shops..bags and bags of shopping…gosh. We didn’t really stop for dinner…Just a quick bite of hotdogs and a cup of hot tea,(coffee for him)…and then we were off again! Kaozzz, I didn’t know guys can shop more than women..HC bought more stuff than I did…..*faint*
The weather in LA was much colder than in Mexico…Plus LA had more winds blowing…my ears and fingers were freezing…Heng I brought gloves there just in case haha…
I spent close to USD$600 today alone I think.
