Okay so we've just arrived at like my favorite shopping mall in all of Bangkok
Welcome to Platinum Mall
[Music]
today's mission is to find a pair of white shorts
and I had to start in my favorite place which is Platinum Mall
like this is a wholesale Mall full of clothes
I think there are four floors just jam-packed with
clothes so I figured this is exactly where I need to start
but don't worry we're going to be visiting lots of other places too
we've got lots of shopping in Bangkok coming right up
so make sure you stick around
[Music]
okay we've spotted our very first pair
I literally got in here like five minutes ago and I found my first pair of white shorts
I don't think they're quite right so I'm going to keep looking around
I seriously have this outfit completely planned out in my head so let's keep looking
[Music]
everything's so cheap like we've just passed a bunch of clothes so we're only 150 Baht
which is just crazy so I'm actually going to a concert tonight I have my outfit all
planned out or kind of I got this really really cool top a couple of weeks ago it's
pink and has crochet cherries and I really want to get some white shorts to go with it
okay I can see shorts in this shop let's have a closer look
can i try? white color? yeah white color
[Music]
it's quite a rare thing to find changing rooms here at Platinum mall so this is
exciting also one other thing I just realized when the woman handed it to
me that the shorts have like these Racing Stripes like down the side which I didn't
notice before I'm not a big fan but I'm gonna try them on anyway and give them a chance and
hopefully that the shots I've been looking for okay I tried them on sadly these aren't the ones
like they fit quite well not quite as high waist as I'd like and I'm just not a fan of the stripe
I dont want this [Music] let's keep looking and if you're wondering about prices here I
told you it's a wholesale mall it's crazy cheap I'm looking around I just passed a
bunch of women's clothes and they kind of range between 150 to 300 Baht it's so cheap
and apparently if you're looking for a butt lift you can come to platinum all as well
check out these pants [Music]
oh that's so cute I'm really all about like the 90s and Y2K Revival
I really really like that you know I'm gonna have to come back to platinum and
smiley face trousers as well oh they're so cute everything here is really nice
apparently they've got Zara here as well I feel like I've found the most
me top ever like when I'm editing these YouTube videos I'm always so surprised
and shocked at myself how many times I say seriously well well well well
should I just make this my uniform for every single YouTube video seriously [Music]
so we literally come to platinum like all the time like I swear I'm here like at least once a
month so I know things pretty well around here so I'm going to share a couple of tips now the first
biggest tip is keep your eye on the prize remember exactly what you came in for so in my case white
shorts my second really big tip and you're going to find this one so helpful is remember the street
names every single floor has different name streets and they're all numbered as well so if
there's something you really want but you're not quite sure if you want to make the purchase yet
just take a photo of the street sign so you can come back to it later I use this tip all the time
and it is like the biggest tip I can give beginner Shoppers here at Platinum Mall one other bit
advice and I recommend coming as early to opening as you can right now it's bang on two o'clock
and it's pretty busy I'm not gonna lie it's a little bit hard to squeeze in through everything
I'm getting distracted again I need to keep telling myself short shorts but there's so much
color here I just love it so this mall is full of twists and turns I literally thought I just
stumbled into the child section there were kids clothes absolutely everywhere turned a corner
men's shirts turned again women's clothes I don't know there must be shorts around here somewhere
right we're going up again this time we're up to floor four which is meant to be more women's
clothes come on shots so if you've ever been to Thailand you know exactly what these are classic
Thailand tourist pants complete with elephant print there must always be elephant print involved
and no I'm not gonna get them and if the elephant trousers weren't your thing you could try the
shorts instead for only 150 Baht not bad right if you were looking for something that wasn't
short that wasn't somewhere you can find that here as well I just walked into this really nice
shop it's got really fluffy really nice jackets that come with matching hats as well I'm kind of
tempted but I live in Thailand so I don't think it's really going to work here in Bangkok weather
so I think I have found the most colorful shop in the entire building everything here is just
so vibrant I just have to have a look inside everything in here is so colorful and so beautiful
I'm so tempted but it's kind of the opposite of white shorts everything is like really rainbow
colored vibrant dresses can't say I'm not tempted and I'll definitely be back I'm going to follow
my own tip I'm going to take a picture of the street name of this bit and I'm also going to
take a picture of the outside of the shop because it's really nice and I'll put it in here as well
if you guys want to come and visit yourself how pretty is that dress seriously I can't say I'm
not tempted for an outfit change but white shorts let's do it more elephant pants right here we've
got all your tourist needs right here at Platinum Mall in Bangkok [Music] so you already know that
Bangkok is one of the best places for shopping in the entire world one of the things I specifically
really love about Platinum is it's kind of like the market experience it's like having
a bunch of different stalls but it's all inside so you're an aircon the entire time it's awesome
so apparently I'm well and truly in the men's section here no white shorts or for women at
least anywhere I'm also really thirsty I'm gonna head up to the food court grab a bomb of water
and then go back down to floors two and three I think hopefully find something and if not I'm
gonna head on to the next mall I told you there's a lot of shopping to be done here in Bangkok
okay so we found the food it seriously smells so good up here it's kind of fizzy I'm just gonna
go have a little look around and hopefully get a drink of water I'm so thirsty [Music]
so something I'd completely forgotten is to get food and drinks here you actually need to buy
coupons like it's really not a big deal I'm just not in the mood today I'm just so so so
Uber focused on buying those white shorts I have a concert in about four more hours so I'm just
gonna go downstairs I think there's a Dairy Queen and hopefully I can get a bottle of water there I
can't seem to find Dairy Queen anywhere and I'm so thirsty I'm gonna do a bougie water today
Starbucks it is oh my gosh just kidding we're not going bougie today we're going to Auntie Anne's
Auntie Anne's did not have water either they've pointed me down here I don't think I've ever
actually seen any of the clothes down here so it's a bit of an adventure within itself but
I'm real thirsty
oh my gosh shall I do a time lapse of me just smashing this water yes
I feel kind of sick after that [Music] it's always Christmas in Thailand no matter what month of the
year and also Halloween apparently too okay so Mission Platinum wasn't really a success
it was successful in the sense of I found lots of things I liked it was unsuccessful in that
I did not find white shorts so we're going to pop on down to Central well now you might have
heard of it it is one of the biggest malls here in Bangkok it's huge so here's a little hack for
you guys if you want to like go to Central world right after Platinum there's a little walkway if
you get off on floor three a platinum Mall walk straight to the end it should link directly up
okay we made it outside it's really really hot here in Bangkok so you have the choice
of going under this little shade tunnel the sun um I'm doing the shade tunnel
so we've just left Platinum Mall we're on our way to Central world now this is literally not even
a five minute walk I can genuinely see where we're walking to so Central World here we come
it's seriously such a beautiful day here in Bangkok as well the skies are so blue everything
looks really really nice but let's get back inside white shots we need them [Music] foreign
[Music]
like when you first enter a mall in Bangkok oh that's so good so Central world is like one of
the biggest shopping malls here in Bangkok this is where I come if I can't find what I'm after
at Platinum so hopefully I'll come to the right place let's look around so although I wish I could
say this place was really easy to navigate it's just not I've been here so many times it's taken
a lot of practice it's not split into sections that much so you kind of need some idea of where
you're going luckily I've got that so we're going to head on down to the ground floor now
this place is literally so big you could spend the entire day shopping in here I'm not joking
around luckily there are loads of really good food places available here and there's just so much to
look at there's loads of international Brands like you know the usual stuff like Adidas Nike
like whatever but there are a few Thai Brands here as well I really love one called pomelo
but I'm going International today I'm going to h m and I've just realized the top I'm actually
wearing today is from Pamela I really like that shop it's so cute and if you hadn't realized
Bangkok is really really good at putting events on there was one outside and there's a huge one
here as well I think it's a Christmas theme one it's looking very festive everyone's in red big
things hanging from the sky Thailand knows how to do it well completely forgot that Pull and Bear
exists I'm gonna go in and see if I can find any white shorts in here foreign [Music] stuff
but not quite what I'm after gotta Focus can't fit in four hours okay no luck of pulling bear
next stop Zara luckily it's just over the way like it's literally right here [Music]
a lot of cute stuff but again no white shorts I I'm getting a little bit worried at this
point that I won't be able to find any h m is kind of my last shot so fingers crossed
I don't know what we've just looked into I'm guessing at someone famous but wow
there's a huge crowd wow and right next to h m home we've got h m come on white
shots also I have said white shorts so many times white shorts white shorts white shorts
I'm so distracted boys I thought we had it for a second there but they're gray oh thanks [Music]
okay so I think first step is find the Denim and we should be on the home stretch right okay we
found the denim time to take a closer look around genuinely thought we had them there it's a skirt
another false alarm I legitimately just thought I found the shorts I'm sure they're here like h m
has never let me down before on the shorts front turns out the men's section has white denim but
nothing for the ladies so far need to keep looking around oh these colorful ones are really cute
white short but they're linen it's not quite what I want but I'm getting a bit desperate I think I
might just try them anyway I'm gonna get the kind of grayish colored ones as well while I'm at it
foreign [Music] out if this trip was a success let's try on some shorts okay so the first pair
is slightly better than I thought they'd be they're a little bit too big I don't think
I'm gonna get them I say they're better than I thought but I still don't really like them that
much the color's not right and there's this big bit of like string like a belt and I just don't
know what you're meant to do with it I've got no idea so ah these aren't the ones so we're
officially down to our final option come on linen shorts we've got a winner yes the linen shorts
are awesome I am so pleased I think they're gonna look really really good with the top so yay I'm so
happy this is not what I set out to buy I really want a denim I was adamant I had to have denim
but these are great perfect for Bangkok weather as well okay so shopping was a huge success I've got
some lovely white shorts not denim like I wanted but they're really great now I'm going to go catch
a taxi go get Barnaby at home and we're gonna go to the concert together I'm really excited to show
you this full outfit there must be some kind of concert or something going on around here there
are huge crowds like enormous there are so many people here I don't know who's performing but
wow it's packed normally I'd be kind of interested in having a look myself but I cannot stress enough
that this concert is in a few hours like they're waiting for some kind of concert but I've already
got tickets online I need to hurry on home so that's getting way too busy for me I'm gonna book
my taxi now and head home and if you are visiting Thailand I highly recommend that you download grab
it's basically like uber so you can get taxis but way cheaper you can see exactly where you're going
which is really helpful when you're someone like me who doesn't have the best sense of direction
I hope you guys really enjoyed shopping in Bangkok with me remember if you like this
