ok, i'm out of the meeting. and to continue with the story, which is nearing the end.
it was my final day in hong kong, and i had checked in my stuff at the in-town check in counter, and decided to browse around the new mall, elements, which everyone was saying i had to check out, before heading to the airport to catch my flight. it was nice enough, with a good selection of stores - shu uemura, shanghai tang, h&m, bcbg, kate spade, diane von furstenburg, and then... i saw bv.
walked in, and was pleasantly surprised to see the sa who helped me when i bought the montaigne at the harbour city store. what a coincidence (or, was it fate?) that she should be helping me again? she explained to me that they do move around the various stores to get familiar with one another and different clientele, etc.
so out came the resort 2008 items in their gorgeous shades of blue, yellow and metallic red and blue, which were nice but didn't move me, then came out the venetas in every shade that they had instore, even the maxi but i wasn't moved. she even showed me the accessories, and i remained stoic. but then came the achiles heel, she brought out the karungs one by one... i was SOLD!
so i walked out of the bv elements stores with my last purchase before i took the airport express to the terminal.
