Cotton On, a familiar name for those who have been to Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and also Singapore. A store that sells loads of basics. It has finally arrived in the heart of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur.

I’ve always loved the store as they have reasonable clothes. Their cardigans are just pure love. They also have a wide range of ballet flats by Rubi Shoes.

I had the chance to pay the store a visit. I had high hopes as I approached the store. Was hoping to hear them blast out loud elctro funk music. They used to play them real loud back in Brissy. Got closer to the store, it didn’t exactly have the same feel but yet they kept it cramp. Just like the original ones ;p

Clothes were still hang in dozens. The mass production was still their game plan. Great. Loving the wide range of basics. But…their stocks seems old. Not many new pieces. I’ve seen those shorts and those tank top back in 2oo7. Wonder why? Is this like DFO?

Rubi Shoes were their top sellers. Even I wanted to buy a couple of pairs. I managed to hold myself back. Hehe. My shoe rack is out of space for newbies. Perhaps soon. But I did by a few basics. I eyed this pair of sneakers, it has this laid back feel about it. It’s not a need for now, but when I have the extra beans. Am definitely coming back for them babies.

Do pay Cotton On a visit.

 Level 4, Pavillion, Jalan Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur.

I’ll post up some image when I go get my new babies then. Have fun shopping. It’s a store worth visiting.
