The Old Blossom Box Store – A Gem in Malaysia

Wednesday was a super day

Joyce, like the last time I was back (in October 2009), so very kindly took me out and about. You see, I hold a valid driving license but I don’t really drive. It’s too scary here and I don’t know the roads well enough…
Basically, I’m a chicken -_-

We had tea at a new restaurant called ‘Plan B’, which apparently has extremely slow service and occasionally includes insects in your food. We shared the most delicious plate of French Toast – luckily for us it didn’t take too long and came with no living things! She took me shopping for DVDs and clothes, and we later met a couple of friends at a bar for drinks and food. Felt like she was my big sister, haha.

Most importantly though, we visited a fairly new boutique: The Old Blossom Box Store
I used to browse the Malaysia-based online store from London, but refrained from purchasing anything due to shipping costs.. and perhaps not knowing how to use Western Union. SO I was really excited to see all the pretty things in real life and also to meet Jezmine, the extremely sweet owner and creator of The Old Blossom Box.

Here come LOTS of pictures, cos everything was so NICE!

The decor of the whole store reminds me of things like Bambi, candyfloss, carnivals, a cupcake store, TOYS, and ice cream. There are lots of small animals and little ornaments everywhere, even a small rocking chair to hang bags on. I was going to photograph this to share but there was a customer blocking the area oops.

The picture on the right reminds me of my sister, whose name is partially ‘Jane’ 🙂

THANKS a bunch Jezmine!
You – and also Joyce – have restored my faith in Malaysian shopping
Just that I’ll probably be broke by the time I leave the country
