I was asked a question the other day. A question that actually took me quite a long time to think about when the answer was staring me in the face the whole time.
What do you like to do? was the question. Now many people would say playing or writing music, or singing, dancing, but not me. No. My only answer was this- I like...no....I LOVE to shop. For me its not just a chance to purchase some new goods, but it something that makes me smile from the inside out, and makes me glow. If only to myself!
Anybody can say that they love shopping. Young,old,male,female everybody shops. It's a world wide phenomena that in some senses only us in privileged developed countries can experience.
For me shopping is this - The tingle that runs from your head to your toes when you see that perfect black strapless dress. The rush of blood to your head that leaves you feeling dizzy when you stumble upon the shoes you've been looking for all year. The butterflies in your stomach when you hand over your card to purchase your dream handbag. All those feelings are what I feel when im shopping. To anyone who knows me, they already realize I have a problem, and I see myself getting into a financial mess in my future over my little addiction.
Sifting through Vogue (my inspirational fashion bible) I've currently set my heart on the most incredible pair of Louboutin stiletto heels with their trademark red sole's, which I can only describe as perfection.
I can only dream. Whats a girl to do? With every possible corner I turn theirs something i want. Want being the most important word, I don't need these things, I want them. However I'm pretty sure that for the time being at least my measly student budget wont quite stretch to incredible buy's I'm destined for.
In the mean time, I'll bide my time until one day, everything I can ever dream of and more is mine.
