2. "I'm just recycling my previous baju Melayu"
"To be honest, I have around a dozen baju Melayu in different colours from previous Rayas, weddings, and special occasions. Some of them I've only worn once. So, this year I'm just recycling an 'old' outfit from Omar Ali or Khatam. Tak payah keluar duit. But, of course I beli baju baru for my wife and kids."

6. "I shopped online from different stores! We're going with a 'wear-whatever-colour-you-want theme' this year."
"I bought a sweet, cotton baju kurung from Bayu Somerset for my daughter. They're comfortable, pretty, and cooling.
"For my husband and son, I got baju Melayu from Khatam. They're my go-to whenever we need baju Melayu. The material is so soft, the quality is really excellent, and they last for years and years.
"And for myself, I bought a top and bottom from Pokoks."

"My bro got married last year, so I bought a new baju Melayu and kurta for the two sides of the wedding from Bulan Bintang. Because, you know, you have to match the family colour theme.
