Not about sales but about shopping

Luxury Jeans at Bread and Butter

Someone emailed me once to ask where she might find Seven for all Mankind jeans in Malaysia. At the time, the only place I’d recalled seeing it was at Isetan at KLCC which had a luxury jeans section. I recalled they had Seven and Paper Denim and Cloth amongst others.

I also recalled that they cost upwards of RM500 each! So, suffice to say, I wasn’t about to explore the luxury jeans section any time soon. I wasn’t sure however, if I ever saw Seven for all Mankind anywhere else.

That is until I was walking around in The Gardens at Midvalley Megamall.

While walking around the upper levels of The Gardens, I chanced upon a store called Bread and Butter.

Photo-0290The store looked like a jeans boutique in that it was filled with racks and racks of jeans. A quick glance at the side of the entrance revealed the brands they carry - Seven for all Mankind, 575 Denim, Denim for Immortality, Evisu, True Religion number amongst the luxury jeans brands carried.

So now you know where to go for your luxury jeans fix. Me? I’m still swanking around in my cheapy denims :) I might walk into the store some day, if only to try out a pair or two. I know that once you get on the slippery slope of luxury jeans there’s no turning back - so I’m resisting the slippery slope for now.

Adambeauty.com - Source of Japanese beauty products

I was introduced to Adambeauty.com by a friend in Hong Kong. Adambeauty is a Hong Kong based company with an online presence, that stocks many brands of Japanese beauty products.

The range of Japanese cosmetics sold on Adambeauty is wide with many brands being “Japan only” brands. These include Sony CP, Lavshuca and Majolica Majorca to name a few. These are fast turning into cult brands among the beauty afficionados simply, I feel, because they are so hard to come by. Therefore, being able to own a piece of makeup from any one of these exclusive Japanese brands is an achievement in itself.

But with a site like Adambeauty, anyone anywhere in the world now has access to these hard to find Japanese brands. I think that’s awesome.

Where to buy Kanebo Lunasol - update

This is an update to Where to buy Kanebo Lunasol makeup that I previously posted.

I made my enquiries of Kanebo and I append here an excerpt of an email reply I received from Kanebo regarding the sale of Lunasol.

Perhaps I should give you a bit of background info on LUNASOL. It’s the makeup brand under our new concept counter, called SAKURA COUNTER. Sakura Counter is composed of 2 colors – PINK, as Sakura flower, and BROWN, as Sakura trunk. Besides, Sakura Counter also carries the new Skincare brand, called IMPRESS. Sakura Counter is exclusively for Isetan at this moment. That’s why it’s only available at Lot 10. However, Sakura Counter will also be available at Mid Valley from End September onwards when Isetan opens their new outlet at Garden City, Mid Valley.

So, it looks as if Kanebo Lunasol will only be available at Isetan for now. There is no indication of it being sold at Isetan KLCC though. I wonder why…

As an aside, I have tried the new Impress skincare and I am, in a word, Impress-ed! A review will be coming up soon on My Women Stuff.

Where to buy Kanebo Lunasol makeup

I previously wrote on my main site about Kanebo launching their Lunasol brand in Malaysia.

As of now, until further notice, this makeup brand is exclusively found at Isetan Lot 10, Kuala Lumpur. My guess is that they are testing the market to see what the reception is like.

I’ve had my Skin Modelling eyeshadow quad and lipstick for more than a month now. I’ve used it quite often, quite to my surprise, but mostly only for days when I want a neutral look, where the makeup looks understated. I will update once I know of any other locations you can find this brand at.
