Happy week ya'll ! As promised, leading up from my shopping at the desert, I would like to highlight the lovely deals found at none other then Forever 21 at Dubai Mall! I only gave you a sneak preview but these are the steals you can find at the Dubai Mall :P Further down, I found two markets worth looking to in Dubai giving you great value for money for indian / middle eastern traditional clothing ( if you are interested that is). *sprinkles rainbows**

First of are BASIC TOPS! be it v necks, round necks or t backs you can find them at the Dubai Mall store far inside near the changing rooms in the bargain rack. prices are only about 19-25 DIrhams which is about RM 15-18 :) best part is being basics, you can glam it up to dress up or dress down anyway you like. These were just some of the pictures i managed to find to convince your inner shopping side :)
Colours are endless, you can even choose them for the colour pallete of green , red, pink, black, brown , white , yellow, blue! RAINBOWWWWWSS here we come.. WEEEEEE

Now the above dresses are just example but you can find them in a sleeveless version and also work dresses in these colours for about RM 60 which is about DIRHAM 49-52! comes with a belt too and great bargain I feel :P I would vote not to get the accessories at this outlet in Dubai as you can find nicer ones for the same price just next door at NEW LOOK ( the UK brand ) :)
Be warned the forever 21 outlet in Dubai Mall is even bigger then our very own store in Pavilion / One Utama , so prepare your wallets and SHOP AWAY! :P
Apart from the mall , another beautiful experience was shopping at the markets which are called SOUKS :P Pen down these two : DEIRA SOUK & GOLD SOUK. They look exactly like the below, Walkway and two sides of shops. As you walk through you can find directions to walk to the GOLD or TEXTILE market . Gold for obvious reasoning sells just jewellery and all things bling for real ( not so much cheaper) and the textile market gives you the array of cloth, dresses, tops , kurtas of lovely designs for cheap prices!

Tops that you can find are as below. Some simple designs range from RM 20-25 and very nice quality of cloth too and super comfy for work on a mid week to have that traditional look :P . Examples of designs are as below. FEAST YOUR EYELIDS!

My super best buys from both souks were the colourful kurti tops like the red and orange above! Pair with tights and some heels and you have elegance and tribal / traditional look at the same time :) If you must, check out some accessories stores nearby the textile market but they are some what pricey to what it can be. Save and go masjid India for your bangles :P
Most of these stores at the souks allow you to bargain so you may try and blink some lashes at the store men. :) Buying in quantity definitely gives you the greenlight to bargain .
Camel rides, desert shoppping , pssstttt Dubai is shoping haven too ! ( if you have not noticed already ) :P
Love from Lady Aphordite!
