The animal-print display below drew me in. You can just imagine the bitchy rival to the heroine of a Korean drama wearing these outfits on her way to throw shade.
Yes to that leopard-print coat! The colour looked amazing on me, but I have way too many coats already.
Not really fond of maxi skirts, but at least this is leopard print AND lace.
The dress that I ended up trying on. It's more of a tunic -- the salesgirl was shocked when I said I wasn't planning to wear leggings underneath, I hate leggings, ugh -- but I've got shorter skirts than this so I don't really care. It's got batwing sleeves and a super-glamourous sequinned black cloth belt.
The dress had a sister, but she didn't do it for me. It's too bad because they were having a promotion: buy two and get the second one half off. Er, excuse my umbrella.
In the end, I bought the leopard-print dress -- I really have to stop buying shit -- but I thought the price was really fair considering how versatile the dress is. It was marked down from HKD700 (around USD100) to HKD475. Here are really crappy pictures of me wearing the dress. Yes, there are newspapers on the floor because I put shoes on, and shoes are verboten in my flat.
Check out the brass details along the collar. The dress is stretchy and feels like a really comfortable shirt. You can see the belt in this picture, too. (I was adjusting the camera in this picture, and it went off by accident, by the way.)
Yikes, I look fat here (should have used the slimming function on my camera!), and the dress looks really short. I swear that it's only because I was lifting my arm to show the batwing sleeve. I probably would dress up the outfit and wear different shoes, but I was tired and just wanted to show what the dress looked like on its own.
The salesgirl told me that they always have promotions and sales, by the way.
The things in the shop range from HKD300 (about USD39) to HKD800, with the coats costing a bit more. These belts were around HKD350.
These are really Korean, don't you think so? I really approve of the shrugs in the shop, as I'm a devotee of mahjong auntie glamour, which is shrug-dependent.
Seriously, I think Geum Jan Di wore this exact dress in Boys Before Flowers.
G & An'ge is in Island Place. Exit B at the North Point MTR Station.
