Troubled shopper

I have an addictive personality. It's not surprising I can't control myself. First it was piano. I own 90% of the entire Romantic period repertoire. After that, it was gambling. Tennis was next, and followed by gym. Now it's shopping.

Basically, there are two type of shoppers. There are those who buy what they can afford, and then there are those who shop until they are in debt. I am a combination of both. As an illustration, Chan and I went to South Yarra yesterday.

I think when you have to wear your friend's shirt and your sister's cardigan, it's a definite sign that you need to get new clothes. This picture was taken at a restaurant where we had bruch. I ordered a chicken burger. It was the best chicken burger I've ever tasted. Melt cheese, fresh chicken fillet, homemade sauce... yum~. Anyway, the first thing I bought was Mario Badescu's Seaweed Night Cream from Kit; something I could afford. Maria Badescu has a very thorough and effective skincare range at a reasonable price. I like its Seaweed Night Cream, Silver Powdwer and Lip Wax.

After that we went Dakota and I bought this Trovata shirt plus a flipflop; something I could barely afford. Dakota is still on Sale, up to 60% off! Oh and everything on the rack at Cactus Jam, QV is now 50% off! After spending an hour or so at South Yarra we came back to the city and went browsing at Myer. They have D&G at Myer now! I bought the D&G tee that I shouldn't have; something I couldn't afford. This seems to be the circle I go through everything I go (window) shopping. Argh ~ I need to find myself some cheaper addictions to get hooked on.
