There was a grand fireworks display the 2nd day after new year's, but since we went to the designer outlet shops at CityGate Mall (near the airport, that houses brands such as Lanvin, Ralph Lauren, Seven, Kent&Curwen, Calvin Klein, Nike, Puma, Sony and soon to open A/X, among others)..we missed it! This was the scene that greeted us..a crowded Nathan Road without fireworks. Reminded me of the time 8 years ago when the airline refused to check my friend and I in because we arrived barely 45 minutes before the flight because we went shopping :shame:
Happy returns to the Shopping Haven

Good thing there's more food to look forward to.
Dinner was at one of the places made famous by their roast goose, crispy pork belly and barbeque pork. Diet? What diet? The plum sauce on the crispy skin was just heavenly.

Finally, Saturday rolled around! I was so excited to go to BV Landmark.
I straightaway looked for the animal coin purses, but sadly I was informed by the SA they only have the ladybug in either black or brown. Oh no.
I asked about the flap clutch/items in ottone, and they don't have it either.
ouija_board I remembered asking you about the ottone flap clutch in BV Las Vegas, hoping so much that it would be available in HK. It seems that US and UK have ottone items, but not HK or Manila, not sure about the rest of Asia..
The club stripe cosmetic case in black/blue/white/brown/green is also not available, but they do have that design in the French flap wallet. I wonder, will they take an SO for this color combination in a bag, like a Montaigne maybe??
I was feeling kind of disappointed, and decided to go run an errand for MIL at the Hermes Galleria next door. I was really just minding my own business, but the SA was quite friendly and started showing me more scarves. Oh dear. Something caught my eye.
I saw a number of scarves, which didnt move me, but this just took my breath away. It was a lovely work of art, the flora and fauna depicted was just amazing and it came in the turquoise colorway, a color that I like very much.

And so it was that the day ended quite well. Never mind that it was freezing (10 degrees Celsius, very cold for me) I ordered the ice cream with crushed berries which I am pretty sure was calling out to me. So did the Royce chocolates. After dessert, it was time to have something salty to balance out the sweetness. What better way but to indulge in a bag of our favorite pizza chips (oh my, look at the melted cheese in between the ridges) while catching some late night TV? Not a healthy habit, but DH said were on holiday, so..
We were headed for Macau the next day, unfortunately there are no BV shops open there yet. But good thing again, friends say the egg tarts, milk custard, pork chop bun and grilled sardines are simply

uclaboi, VKD, spendalot, kopibaby, Eugin - thank you for your kind words 
hovercraftier Im still on cloud 9, just so happy that the bag is so beautiful yet functional. DH is a practical shopper and will be very thankful to see the bag being used (and loved) many times over.
Thank you all again for letting me share another BV adventure
