The Lapsap duo are throwing another fashion junkyard sale just before Chinese New Year at Palate Palette. Besides the usual chow down on BBQ food and rummaging for vintage steals; Lapsap is also launching their new Lapsap tees in 3 colours - white, black and red (exclusively for CNY). What a brill marketing plan - let fans wear red Lapsap shirts for CNY which will appease traditional folk at the same time.
It's time to head down to another flea market as Absolute Bazaar is holding their second flea market next weekend. We heard some really good comments about their first flea market, so look forward to clothes, shoes and accessories targeted at shopaholics.
