Have you ever bought something online, anticipate for it to arrive on your doorstep and when you open the package, it actually disappoints you because it is not like what you've expected it to be?
Sometimes, due to the camera lighting or monitor resolution, the colour you see online and the actual product may deviate. And sometimes, it is very hard for you to imagine how it will look like when you actually wears it. But this is not an excuse to give up online shopping altogether!
This is no secret, but you can avoid disappointment by putting a little more effort in identifying certain issues you're concerned with. If the picture provided is a catalouge picture, then you SHOULD ask the blogshop owner for a real picture. One with flash and another without flash so you could roughly grasp what the colour will be like. And do not forget to ask for the exact measurement and material.
Another excellent idea to solve all your uncertainties is to visit them during bazaars. This way, you get to see for yourself how the material is like and whether it looks good on you.
But beware, you may be spoilt for choice and ended up buying more and more!! *hehe*
Anyway, we have two bazaars happening this week on the 3rd & 4th October which is the
Joujou & Shugi Toy Art Mart at Ground Floor e@Curve (Formerly known as Cineleisure) and
Chic Pop:Street Market at Zouk, KL respectively.
First up, we have the Chic Pop: Street Market
Organized by Tongue in Chic, the
