So, I received this mailer from swv recently, for those who doesn’t
know about this blogshop, it has been around for quite a while already, the
full name is actually swivelle..
So everyone loves some good sales right? I’m no exception,
the moment I realised that their newly open retail shop is so near me, I know, I must go! Lo and behold, when the day came, I was greatly disappointed, if you
look at the picture carefully, they say there are stuffs that are going on
sales for up to 50%. So I was like, super excited for it, I know that their
price point are usually set at $22-$26. Logically speaking, up to 50% would
mean that I will see some items that are priced $11-$13 right? But no, when I reached
there, the cheapest apparel I saw was $14, and nope, they are not fantastic at
all, most of the items are actually $16.. There are of course other apparels
that are priced at $18 and $20.
Well, and also, the clothes were more of an office lady
style, in a very subtle demure way. This is totally not my style, at all. Right
after that trip, needless to say, I unsubscribed from their mailing list, it’s
too old for me! I mean, I have friends that are working already, I don’t see
them wearing like that, but I do see office ladies at about late twenties or
early thirties wearing that. So, urm, nay for me.
I would probably give their future sales a miss when it
happens; even if it is located at a convenient location. I just can’t bring
myself to spend more than $10 for their items. I don’t mind spending a little
more for quality and style, but for this case, the style doesn’t appeal and the
quality begs more to be desired. The only products that caught my eyes are the
bags, which are going at original price. So, a great disappointment today for
heading all the way down to their retail space although it is near. ):
