If you find that the above logo looks familiar,
or you somewhat seen before,
yes, it's TEE BOXX!
You must be thinking now what is TEE Boxx,
what do they do,
where are they from,
and that's why I am here for.
For a start, here's a hint on what TEE Boxx does,
as well as something exciting planned for you specially in the next few weeks!
Yeah bobs,
TEE Boxx is started up last year by two enterprising and inspiring entrepreneurs here locally in Singapore,
and since then, they have been actively working on their business model – Events.
They aim to bring enthusiastic and passionate hobbyists to every event,
and believes that every of its clients will have a blast of a time with them.
With TEE Boxx hosting and managing events just for you,
they have in fact, organized an upcoming FLEA MARKET – Gathering of Stars for everyone,
their first ever event right smack at one of the hottest locations in town, the supperclub.
Its not called Gathering of Stars for nothing!
Tee boxx has specially invited star bloggers to go down to the flea to sell their own items too,
and weeee, I bet it would be really cool to see them,
and remember to bring along your cameras to snap a picture or two!
And did i mention to you that they have a common goal?
Which is making each and every event a huge BANG!, together with the best responses and media attraction.
if you haven been to supperclub,
here's a sneak peek of what's in for you,
imagine yourself in one of the stalls in here (see below).
and you must be thinking of when are you getting your Ipad, or Iphone 4 now,
since you are clearing your wardrobe or house in a matter of weeks. :p

And recently, I am once again hooked on Togas,
i always think toga is a minimalist outfit- a kind that shows but not too much,
and what's great about this piece that Pearlavish gave me is the one shoulder tee.
I kinda like the bandage & drappy part as well.
Other than casual dresses, formal dresses which we will need in our wardrobe.
Black is the classic colour to go

TAIWAN DAY 2 – XIMENDING, WU FEN PU (PART 1)
The three of us have a habit of taking pictures before leaving the hotel each and every day in our Taiwan Trip.
Playing dressing up is one of the highlights of an overseas trip too, don't you agree? :p
Not just that, but exiting the hotel is another hot spot for photos.
I like the way the plants are hanging outside and the alley feel,
it would have been much better if the constructions at the back were done and removed.
Just like the first day, we have to walk to the Ximen Station, which we will pass by all these places…
just by looking at this picture, i know we are nearing the bubble tea shop that I like,
Ching Shin Fu Chuan Tea Station, 清心福全 !
Their normal milk tea is awesome, but if you are a huge fan of milk teas again,
you can try hazelnut or caramel milktea, thumbs up for these two drinks!
I can totally imagine how much calories am i gaining each day,
We wanted to just have a lunch, and remember the other bubble tea chain (50嵐 which is KOI in Sg?),
we spotted that shop finally in the ximending maze of shops after trying to locate it since we touched down in Taiwan.
Being the greedy girls, we sure have to get a cup each!
Considering the cup we just had while walking over,
and a second cup within the next half hour.
Gosh, carbs carbs carbs,
I officially concluded that bubble tea is definitely poots and my ultimate all-time-favourite drink.
Look at how excited we were to locate it!
Look at the 34324934923 amount of pearls = carbs!
Our lunch was planned to visit and try the famous Ah Zong Mian Xian,
I bet everyone of you heard of this before,
this mian xian chain is extremely famous in Taiwan and has countless of shops around.
Small bowl for 45 NT = SGD $1.90 only!!!!
Big bowl for 60 NT = SGD $2.60
oh boy, where can we find ultra delicious mian xian at this price around?!
This is the small bowl and its enough for one person generally.
The special part of this mian xian is that they don't use oyster, but cooked with pig intestines (I LOVE IT!!!).
You get to immerse in their culture, :p
Our next plan of the day was to visit WuFenPu 五分埔,
the well-knowned place for wholesale clothes or rather,
clothes at utmost affordable prices.
A tip that many of my friends who came back from Taiwan told me that,
I should visit wu fen pu for the first few days of my trip,
and shop there instead before shopping at the rest of the other areas.
Due to the fact that prices there for clothes are more reasonable,
and other areas sell the same stuff too.
From the research that we have done, we actually took a train to Yong Chun Station to go there.
But apparently, that is a wrong stop to alight!
The correct stop would be Hou shan pi station. (Thanks caleen!)
I guess many people alighted at the wrong stop previously,
so there actually have a useful slip of paper to tell us how to go to Wufenpu from Yong Chun.
Can take either bus 232, 281 or 284.
Did i tell you i prefer taking bus than any other mode of public transport?
And the bus ride there is real affordable, its standardized 15NT = SGD $0.65 for all trips (from what i know),
and the bus ride is really comfortable and properly air-conditioned.
The difference is that we have to pay for the bus ride only when we alight.
Finally we arrived!
I didn't manage to snap a lot of pictures here because we were busy shopping away.
Teehee, spent quite a bit here, but clothes are average about $8-15!
Of course, there will be pricier items which are of better quality.
We spent an hour plus in this shop.
Red couch for shawn to rest and being the Mr Nice, he waited for us to shop :p
Leaving the shop with satisfaction!
Will be back for Rao He Night Market and more!
Stay tuned for the next.

Hi bea,
where did you get your green dress from?
hey dear, i really forgot where did I get this piece, so sorry!
what does “immense in their culture” mean?
typo. thanks for the point out.
Hi, may i know how much did you pay for the air ticket and how much did you guys pay for the hotel.
Cause me n my friends[3 of us] are planning to go too. Thanks!
we booked really earlier , like 5 months earlier,
$365 per pax.
Which Airline did you take?
The hotel is how much per night?
Sorry to ask so much.
Hey, u meant u only forked out $365 in total for this taiwan trip? Thats really a great deal. Haha.
hi dear, im sure i stated that we booked 5 months in adv (since i was asked about the price of the air ticket in the first place), so i guess the reader will understand that 365 refers to the air ticket only.
i think i got the same dress, but does yours ‘open’ at the spilt? mine open really big when walking and when climbing up stairs!! :O did you wear anything underneath?
hi, can i know where is that dress from? you’re referring to the green one? let me know, thanks!
Hi there, would like to ask some questions. since you’ve been to Taiwan, so which places you would highly recommend for us to go if I were to shop for fashion clothes, bags & shoes?
By the way, the places like ximending and wufenpu all, do they do wholesale? (becos i’m going with a large of group of friends, it would be cheaper for wholesale right?)
THANKS if you can reply, thank you!
