Addicted to You- Simple Plan

I have as good as gone through this weeks pay at the mall today. One Euro equals about 1.50 at the moment, but knowing this doesnt stop me from paying much more than I would in the States, this HAS to be some side effect of culture shock.

Have you ever seen Shopoholic starring Isla Fisher? See it, its a favorite of mine. Rebecca Bloomwood (Fisher) has a shopping problem and the film opens with her going further into debt by buying a green scarf. This specific purchase becomes symbolic in the movie in that when she gets the job as a financial writer, her pen name is 'The Girl in the Green Scarf'. Not sure when I'll become 'The Girl in the Starry Scarf' but like Rebecca, my movie is just beggining.

I first saw it while shopping in a town called Vigo (FUN FACT: Vigo's port brings in more fish than anywhere in the world apart from Tokyo). We were in one of Spains biggest shops, Zara (pronounced 'Thada') and the shop it so expensive, I didnt even look at the scarf but it caught my eye and I thought about it long after I saw it. So as we passed Zara today in Lugo, I had to inquire. There is was, under the bright lights and smelling like something beautiful, it was marked down to 13 euro...roughly 20 bucks. Never in my life would I spend 20 dollars on a scarf in America. Never. Ever. I'd put it back, I dont spend 20 bucks on anything but jeans...and athletic gear like swimming suits and running shoes. But I really would have regretted it, I love with it. I´m honestly in love with a garment.

Keeping student teaching in mind and the fact that my wardrobe currently consists of only of jeans and T's, the explansion of wardrobe is only necessarry.

The Glory Scarf. No regrets.
