My Shopping Conquest #18 - A Shopping Riddle #01 Revealed!







Lanvin Grasshopper Head Jacket Pin

I finally received my 'gift':-P

After 2 weeks of waiting, plus asking the helpful folks at Club 21 Mens to put aside this item for me for over 14 days...I finally got what I wanted. My almost 'FREE REWARD' for being a devotee to the 'Club 21 Fashion Temple'. Hahaha.

This is actually something I use the Club 21 points I amassed (after 'contributing' tonnes of money to the holy fashion mecca!) to redeem Club 21 Vouchers for my new purchases. In total, I redeemed all my Club 21 points, a hefty total of 25,000 points (You get 2 club points for every dollar spent) to exchange for 5 x SGD $75 Club 21 Shopping Vouchers. So that means, I can offset any purchase with SGD $375!

I have been fascinated by the cool insect-inspired Lanvin brooches and pins Club 21 Men's is stocking this fall winter season. So I decided to use the vouchers to get the Lanvin Grasshopper Head Jacket Pin. The jacket pin is made from a gun metal coloured metal and adorned with beautiful rhinestones and diamonté crystals as the bug's eyes. Perfect to add a touch of glamour to an elegant outfit, especially on tailored jackets or even fabric bags. It's not too girlish and yet the sparkle from the rhinestones glitter with sophistication! I love it! The grasshopper head design is also abstract and futuristic, that is why it reminds me of Masked Rider from Japan! Hehe.

As this jacket pin costs SGD $399, after offsetting it with my SGD $375 vouchers, I literally have this pin for 'free'...paying only SGD $24 bucks! Hurray to Club 21...I am your 'humble devotee', it pays to pay 'tribute' to Club 21 fashion temple!:-P I love Club 21!

Retail Price: SGD $399. Where to buy: Club 21 Mens at Four Seasons Hotel

A Shopping Riddle #02...


As The Shopping Doctor Prescribed...

I went shopping...AGAIN...yesterday evening. Seems I spotted something last Sunday which kept me sleepless thinking about it again and again. So as 'Doctor Kevin, Shopping Psychiatrist Extraordinaire' prescribed, I should have the item I 'lust' as a cure to my ailment:-P

I will get the item back in a few day's time. Can't wait. BTW, I got the last piece in the store.

What did I buy? What brand is this? One thing for sure, it's distributed in limited countries, I cannot even find any extra info online for the menswear line:-P See if you guys can guess from the word puzzle. It's quirky, it's fun, it's hard-to-find!

A Shopping Riddle #01?!?!?


What has 'Masked Rider' got to do with my next Club 21 purchase?

So yesterday, I did the unimaginable again. I reserved my NEXT purchase for next week's shopping pilgrimage to the HOLY DIVINE shopping mecca, Club 21 Mens, the place where wishes do come true if you pray hard enough and have enough '$$$'! Credit cards are welcomed too:-).

However, this time, the higher powers at Club 21 decreed that I have been a loyal and faithful devotee of their 'fashion cult' and I will be granted a divine gift for all the 'contributions' I have made. The shopping heavens of Club 21 are pleased.

What do you think I am getting? Have the 'holy signs' of shopping heaven been deciphered yet?

'Pray hard'...Stay tuned next weekend for the unfolding of a 'divine' miracle:-P
