introducing myself -again
Permalink Closed


Hi ladies,


Just coming back to stylethread after another long absence, so I thought I'd drop by and say howdy, and reintroduce myself since there are so many new people posting since I "left" a few months ago.  I've been living in Thailand for about a month now and am enjoying myself.  It's quite an adjustment but I like it.  The shopping is great here, esp. for housewares, jewelry, and art, but the clothing/shoe options aren't great.  There are tons of big malls, but the clothes are not to my taste and stuff runs very small.  There are a TON of really high end stores here, it's incredible - Gucci, Chanel, LV, D&G, Tod's, Prada, etc - but of course I can't afford much of that.  I may reward myself with an LV bag down the road.  I'm looking forward to getting clothes made, as apparently it's inexpensive and good quality workmanship.  So I'm doing a lot of online shopping in the meantime.


Anyway, I expect my posts will all be at odd hours since I'm on the other side of the world, so I'll be a bit late on responses, but it's nice to be "back" again.

welcome back - and Thailand sounds like so much fun! Enjoy! I was just reading in, I think Vogue, the other day, about a woman who had all of her clothes made while she lived in bangok... it sounded pretty great...

Hey DCS--We've missed you!  Glad to hear your okay and that you're enjoying Thailand.  Let me know how it works out with having clothes made over there.  My hubby and I will be moving to Cairo in a few months and I plan to do the same thing (I've already been researching my shopping options while there and the seamstress idea is what intrigues me the most).  How long will you be there? 


Take care and it's great to see you around!

it's great to get an update.  i hate when people disappear and don't give updates. 


you should definitely check out the tailors in thailand.  i've read so many articles in vogue, etc...and it sounds amazing.

Soooo... do you take pics or drawings to the seamstress or do you just describe what you want? I love the thought of made clothing.
