way to go

I just collected something for Elvis from the optical shop. It's a pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarer. The first time we saw this "remake" was at Changi Airport's DFS. Elvis tried it on, and he liked it - coz it suited his big head. Heehee... ;p

Elvis hasnt always been the "fashionista" he is today. So, i told him that this design is very classic. It was very popular in the early 80s, and my sister had a pair then. Recently, it's made a comeback...and in many different colours.

We saw it again in Bangkok and in a special "folding model" too! He wanted very much to buy it. But on second thought, it might be cheaper in Singapore (coz all imported goods in Bangkok are more expensive). Then, he saw it again while he was in the US. He was really very tempted coz it was about US$100+. The sunglasses were really "big" in the US coz he said everyone on the streets was wearing it! So, i checked it for him in Singapore (to compare with US prices), and ordered the stocks for him at an optical shop in Tampines near my house. It's quite a good deal - compared to most optical shops in town.

Elvis, you will TRY to take good care of this pair, right?? ;)

P.S. His latest pair was a Calvin Klein aviators which we bought in Hong Kong, and it lasted him only a few months. Yes, he can be like a kid sometimes (always spoiling/losing things). Kekee... ;p
