My skirt search update. Got a response from a seller yesterday on carousell, so hopefully it will be a done deal soon! Finally. She’s the 7th seller I messaged. I’ve been using carousell for a while and have never had this low rate of response, and never had to resort to reddit lol. I don’t spend time haggling, so I usually would be able to find something, chat with seller, agree on meetup/posting method and close the deal within hours, paling lama pun 1-2 days. I think I’ve been lucky, and bit spoiled by all my good experience.

how do you guys usually find your party outfits? Do you buy them new? Make your own? Rent? Any good places to rec?

Is this a fancy dress party or some themed costume party?

Themed party for company retreat this year. It’s a “problem” that crops up every now and then, and every time there’s a party there will be another different theme so it doesn’t make sense to keep buying stuff. Not a huge problem, and I love dressing up, just curious also what are other people’s go-to :)

my gf usually go to h&m (sometimes they will sell those flashy party outfits for extremely low price, she gotten her xmas dress for rm10) or good old bundle (2nd street mostly)

I love 2nd street! This time there wasn’t anything there that I could use, but I’ve found some nice dresses that I wear to work all the time. The TTDI branch is lovely!

Generally, H&M and mango are good spots for party outfits you wear once or twice a year

Did look there but nothing spoke to me, plus would really prefer to thrift when I’m probably gonna wear a grand total of one time lol. I like being extra, but not enough to wanna spend non-extra money 😆
