As a shopaholic, I love to buy new things and I've been to many places where things are expensive. But today, I'd like to talk about a place where things are particularly pricey. That's none other than the Elante Mall in Chandigarh. It's a beautiful place because people can find various amenities under one roof. There are many restaurants, cafes, a cinema, a theater, and numerous shopping mall outlets. Last weekend, I went to Chandigarh for my cousin's wedding. After the ceremony, all the cousins decided to go out shopping as a memory of Chandigarh. We planned to visit Elante Mall, which is very large and calm. Due to the infrastructure and the high level of maintenance of the building, I think the prices are expensive. Not only that, but many of the items are from branded stores. I went to the attire section, where there are many outlets. I went to the Levi's brand and wanted to buy a pair of jeans, but the price tag was high, way beyond my budget. It was around 8,000 rupees. I ended up just window shopping for clothes. Then I moved to the jewelry section and wanted to buy a pair of earrings, which were also very expensive. The glamour of the earrings made me want to buy them, and I ended up spending a thousand rupees on a pair. But I felt deep sorrow because I couldn't afford the denim jeans I loved. My cousins also bought various things there. Afterward, we had lunch in a beautiful restaurant with a calm design and soothing music.
