TRAVELMAN in VIETNAM: Shop, Shop ‘Til You Drop in Hoi An. Fashion, Fashion, Fashion!

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

The title of this post should be sung to the tune of Def Leppard’s “Rock, Rock Til You Drop.”

I had another pun based title in mind for this post that I decided against using, but I’m going to share it here. It was in honor of the recently deceased Malcom Young of AC/DC — “For Those About to Shop We Salute You!” No? How about a variation, “For Those About to Shop We Solicit You.”

Hoi An is the place to go for a tailored suit, a tailored dress, or a tailored jump suit. It’s also the place to go for shoes and purses, or counterfeit North Face Jackets. I bought a North Face Rain jacket for 500,000 Dong ($22.00 USD). The zipper zips from the opposite side, but it works great and looks damn good on me.

I figure some people like to shop a lot more than I do so I’m sharing these pics.

I said in my last post that if I had money to burn and room in my bag I would have bought one of the outlandishly patterned suits. I think I would have went with this one...

I’d love to get picked up by my family from the airport back home in Ohio in that. Or maybe this one...

Sort:  

I would buy some shit (if i fit in it) lol.....i liked the coats the most :D but then again it snowed today so i guess i was automaticly drawn to warmer garments. :3 As for your suit....first one. Deffo first one. :D

I don’t think anyone escapes that town without buying at least one article of clothing. Btw, thanks for the resteem of my other post.

Well I had nothing to add to it...but coming from health care myself...I get it. :) It deserved a resteem.

I had shorts made in Hoi An years ago. I'm still wearing them although they are on their last legs now. I keep thinking, hmm, maybe I need to go back and get some more.

It’s a good excuse to visit Vietnam.

The dresses are so so soooo beautiful !! I would wear that long red dress if you're going to wear that fancy suit 😝😝

I thought you’d like them. I thought of you when I was putting together the post.

@travelman Love those suits in Hoi An. Also loved the groups of people dressed in matching garish banana shirts and such.
Really enjoyed seeing these photos, I loved Hoi an, was the best way to finish up our trip around Vietnam
