Hello my name is Rose-Coloured-Glasses and I am a shopaholic. I believe that this is the first step as I am acknowledging that I do have a problem and need to stop. This year has been extraordinary. But this is not the first time. I have been a life-long addict. (I believe that I have a coffee mug at my parents' house that is over 30 years old with a picture of a purple Shopasaurus...what does that tell you?)
I do think I am able to take a break for awhile and just window-shop. I have tried to do that lately. And the fact that the inventory on offer hasn't been very good helps quite a lot. There are way too many prints out there. I know and can understand some prints can go well with other prints when done correctly - for example, Peter Pilotto and Mary Katrantzou. But all the knock-offs and High Street copies are driving me nuts. Not only are they blinding but many are true fire hazards.
While I am on the topic of trends, this summer I am seeing far too many men and young boys in espadrilles. When was this considered cool or attractive? And I thought male capris were bad!
