Shop Till You Drop...Or At Least Until Your Credit Card Melts
12. February 2008 | en
One thing Madrid is absolutely fabulous for is the shopping! My camera went wonky, and I lost a lot of my pictures, Well not really lost them, but they all red and purple lines going through them which just spoiled the whole effect really. Plus I spent the whole day Saturday shopping, and I bought lots of pretty new clothes. My vow of less stuff melted with the first catwalk perfect window. That this was designer did little to disway me, but rather made me vow to work longer hours. (No fears, I never bought the $600 sweater, the $200 scarf, or the $1000 dress. I just merely questioned my commitment to my new path of less is more). A couple of days back in the heartland of Swabia should cure me of it, no worries.
But I did find some less upscale shops with lots of deals, and so less time picture taking, more time shopping. I mean everyone is Madrid is top of the line. Even the children have perfect hair and the most up to date fashions. It begged you to roll around in capitalism and come out smiling. Ignore starving children, buy yourself a pretty new pendant and a cat bed for your cat, because we all must luxuriate in the happiness that is shopping. And shopping is on offer in Madrid. wheeeeeeeee
