One of my favorite movies of the year was Confessions of a Shopaholic – the story of a flat-broke fashion junkie who writes a column on budgetting.
(Gee, I wonder why I’m a fan???)
This movie is beyond self-referential, it’s hilarious and cool, and I think everyone I know who saw it got a kick out of it.
Like, the all-important scarf.
Or the temple of shopping.
This movie is based on Sophie Kinsella’s best selling novels of the same name, about a fashion-loving New Yorker writer who trades frocks for finance and finds love! (Well, with a little drama in between.)

Wouldn’t that be nice!! The top that I’m wearing at the moment, I don’t even remember when I bought it… honest!! I simply like the color and the pants I’m wearing, I bought in the summer. Paris would never do that. At the moment , she is bundling up oodles and oodles of outfits and shoes for charity so she… can go out and buy more. While I’m sure that the children’s charities love it, I have a feeling that Paris just likes to shop lol…
As for what she is wearing… not too keen on that particular dress, her shoes …read more

I have decided that it’s time to dump all of my old brushes… okay, the ones that are really old. If I can’t remember when I bought them and the hairs are falling out, I think it’s time. I was looking around Barneys and noticed this brush. It looks very well made and I am just a little sick of picking the bristles off my face. Yes, I think that it’s time!

Details
“The long smooth goat bristles give the most delicate touch. The shape of the brush is easy to fit around the face for easy shading and dusting excess powders.”

“Shopping–for some, it’s a day well spent, and for others, it’s a word of contempt! No matter what your attitude towards shopping may be, there are some ways to streamline the experience without breaking your back, wallet, or patience!”
You can either end the day feeling quite pleased and satisfied with your purchases and the amount you spent, or feeling guilty because you bought a lot of things on the spur of the moment that you really didn’t want or need. Definitely have experienced both kinds of days.
It is so easy to completely ruin a gorgeous day by not planning …read more

I’m going to send you on your first field trip and I want to warn you now. This project requires a lot from you. I’m sending you to the most exclusive mall in your area and you are going to people watch.
Grab a coffee and then settle yourself down in the most comfortable sofa you can find. If the malls that I frequent don’t offer comfy sofas to people watch, then they aren’t worth my time. As shopaholics, we need to be catered to!
Now, I want you to pay close attention to what the shoppers (with your body …read more
