So I went to see Confessions of a Shopaholic last night. Oh my gosh!! I read the first two books in the series (which are the ones that the movie is loosely based on), but it was so much funnier with Isla Fisher playing Rebecca Bloomwood in living color! She even ends up going to Shopaholics Annonymous (which was not in the book). I don't really know if this is sad or not, but I so identified with a lot of the things she did and said...though I didn't just go out and buy like she did and most definitely not from upscale boutiques...I would love me some Prada and Christian Louboutin heels though!! This movie was so hilarious!!
It apparently got poor reviews from the "critics," but I guarantee you that if you are female there is going to be something you relate to and if you like shopping...you will definitely find this movie amusing. I did really relate to her attempts at "de-clutter" by putting everything in space bags and sticking it in a closet...then something happens and they slowly become "un-sucked up" and bam...when you open it...everything comes popping out!! I'll post a few pictures of some areas of my closets (yes...I did mean to put closets plural...I have three...all walk-in...one used to be a guest room and then a storage room...it is now my shoe closet and I am only showing you a small portion of my shoes). I have already gotten rid of and/or removed about ten garbage bags of clothing from my closets and they are still full, but I am severly attached my shoes and clothes...yes call me materialistic if you like, but I don't care I still like them no matter what you or anyone else says. However, I do find my self having too many pairs of things such as sunglasses, scarves (why do I need so many scarves in Florida??!! But I like them!), etc. Anyhow, I just thought I would share my materialistic side with you. :-P It really sucks that we are moving and I will have one teeny tiny little non-walk-in closet!! I have ALWAYS had a walk-in closet!! I guess I'm going to have to get a storage unit!!
