Arab Street & Haji Lane

Thursday, February 28th, 2008

Last Monday, Emily and I met at Lavender MRT Station for some shopping and exploring! She brought me to the Textile Centre for some cheap zippers available in every color! We bumped into her family and they treated me lunch, we even had tea together! After that, we trotted down to Arab Street!

Yup, Arab Street!

Bottles of perfumes
Do you know what’s inside these bottles?

Those are actually perfumes! Made of natural oils, I’m not sure if they’re essential oils, the shop owner can concoct store-brand perfumes like Chanel, Burberry, Nina Ricci or even Calvin Klein! There are a number of such shops on Arab Street and each vial costs only a couple of dollars. :)

Look what else we found!
