today, i - the eternally insatiable and always underfunded shopaholic - took a little trip to square one.
i was thoroughly unimpressed.
since when did major shopping malls have so little appeal for papa's-visa-card-carrying girls like me? i knew what i needed, and had money to burn. and somehow, i was totally disinterested, and found NOTHING.
maybe it's the born-again urbanite in me, or maybe i'm just picky, but i found the rows of mundane, look-alike stores to be utterly depressing. why doesn't anyone take fashion risks anymore? why are there multiple stores in a row sporting the same, jeans and t-shirts, fleece sweaters and immitation uggs look, circa 5 seasons ago? where are the trend setters? WHERE IS THE STYLE?
this is a call-out to the shopping mall brands. step. your. game. up.
you too, aritizia... you are undoubtedly fashionable. but you NEED to update your collection. i can still spot the wilfred dress i bought 4 years ago, and those oversize sweaters have got to go sometime. you're lucky i found those wilfred pleather shorts today, even though you priced them at 118 benjamins.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: club monaco, BCBG, FCUK, and banana republic, you are exempt from my rage. your ruffles and sparkles and assymetric cuts still suck me in.
PS. H&M, please hire a new visual merchandiser and re-organize your store. i get a headache just walking through your door.
