After my poor experience with the previous vendor, I learnt my lesson in not sharing the source too fast before i settle my bridesmaid dresses, as i understand that with every posting and sharing of my vendors, their business grew very fast and popular. However, I never really mind about it becos i always believe that good things must be shared =) However, the cheong sum vendor that i last visited really disappoint me with her sales integrity... WHY?:
(1) Another "bigger" order came in and she probably have let the other customer choose the cheong sum fabric design first because when i asked about the fabric designs she was a little low EQ to tell me that these are only left overs fabrics left which really pissed me off.
(2) Another thing about it is that she actually din inform us that the fabric's price has rises and wanted to sell us the dresses at 49 bucks(initial costing at S$39) each. To me, price is not much of a factor but i hated feeling cheated and not being well informed about it before she place and push for the orders.
(3) She wasted our time by not telling us the fabric that we have chosen was not available(what's the point of bringing the jiemeis down at diff time choosing the fabric then?). After which she did not get back to Xuan for a long time despite Xuan tried to get to her and delaying us in terms of sourcing of alternatives when the dresses din turn out well.
(3) She then offered us her goodwill to sell me the dresses at $42 each but only to go down and find out of the fabrics design left => only one make it to the mark
Conclusion?
She is really not trustworthy. For me, if she hadnt over promise things, I would have gladly buy it from her BUT I felt that the REAL reason why she offer us a goodwill price was to absorb the dresses which I din find it nice at all. It is like helping her cut cost etc so it is more like me doing goodwill to her man.... SIGH
But i guess she is a little ignorant that the reason why pple knows she is selling cheong sum is becos, me Christine, the Princess, has bothered to write a review and posted it on the blog, where else would pple know about this shop which doesnt specialise in cheong sum in the first place. I guess she will need time to grow and learn what is the right tactic to do business. For the first time i felt ashame to post and shared such an unreliable source of vendor and it helps me learn to be more wary with my reviews until i get my hands on the final product.
Anyway let's forget about the service letdowns and concentrate more on my NEW FOUND LOBANG!!!!

it's a Cheap, Chio Cheong Sum!!!
Well i know i know, I am also very impressed with my ability at times but yes i did find a better lobang then the last one somehow by chance again! Actually, i found this lobang quite some time ago but i get senile at times and forgotten all about it until i chance upon it.
Yes!!! My dream jade green cheong sum!!! But i have yet bought it so i must quickly do so before it's gone!!!
Simply love the Eco-green colour!!!
As for Ah li she also found the cheong sum she loves!!! I am so envious she is wearing S size becos I was wearing the M size dress. Her figure is so slim and the cheong sum looks sooo good on her!
When this dress was still on the rack, we din feel it was nice at all BUT once she put it on, we were like crazy gals going "WAHHHHHHHHHHHH, THISSSSS IS THE DRESS MAN!!!" The cheong sum looks expensive and classy as it is of those satin like material n i always feel that younger gals should wear light material for cheong sum as it feels more youthful somehow.
Totally love the floral print! It looks way better in real life.
Yes, my fav detail, pearly collar lol
Yes we are the professionals, we are so particular about aesthetics that we insisted in putting the dress to the test under the orange lighting like that of the banquet area. The results? TOTALLY SWEE (means pretty in hokkien)!
Ok couldnt help posing together to become the cheong sum sisters!
Actually i like her dress cutting more becos it highlights the figure of a woman more! Yes i know i m gonna steal her cheong sum to wear some day muAHAHAHAH!
OH YES THE MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION again!!!
How much is it for a 3C????? Priceless? 49 bucks? 42 bucks? 39 bucks?
NAH!!! Listen up it's

KACHING A mere S$20.00 nett!!!!
it was such a good deal, we practically laugh all our way back home from the NAUGHTY EVIL KILLER shopping deal! To buy this dress online directly from ebay, it will cost me twice the amount!
my mother in law's jaw almost dropped when she heard about my latest lobang and was so impress by me hahaha.
Yes but wait till i get the green dress before i reveal where the source is from =) (WIDE GRINZ)
PS: Xuan will be wearing the gold cheong sum i bought last time for next chinese new yr as she likes it and now i m left with Qi! Another agenda and headache down with a breeze=)
OH yes I know I accidentally left out the info of the bracelet vendor and was bombarded with many private emails to query about the source, it is actually from Gmarket https://www.gmarket.com.sg/ =) have fun online shopping like i do!
Hi! I love your jade green cheong sam, love the bargain even more! :) May I know where you get them? Thanks in advance!
