Fashion Is Pain
Thursday, August 27, 2015
While
the rest of the world get all excited from the word “Shopping” I am that one
person out of the group of friends who sighs and has no choice but to drag
herself along. I know, how is it possible for a girl to hate shopping! Well I’m
going to point out 5 reasons as to why I dread shopping…
1)
Too Many Choices: Nearly all
clothes shops sell similar items. This really frustrates me. So I can’t
just go to one shop and buy what I want, because there is this tiny voice in my
head saying “What if some other shop sells one much more prettier than that” so
then I’m in a situation where I’m holding an item and having second thoughts. So
most of the time I end up spending hours going from shop to shop searching for
that perfect one! Then when I’ve found THE ONE, I realize that I’ve spent hours
searching for an item and just wish I could’ve spent those hours more wisely.
2)
Hijabi Problems: Okay so let's say I’m not really bothered to search from shop to shop. I’ve picked out a few
items that I really like! So I’m carrying all the hangers in one hand, my bag
in the other and walk straight to the fitting room! If I’m lucky and I don’t
need to wait 30 minutes (in which case I just walk out the shop without the
items). I head into a fitting room (hopefully one with a lock). The first thing
I have to do it take my scarf off, because the big fat flower clip under my
scarf makes my head too big to go through the neck hole thingy I now have to
take out all my pins, the scarf, the piece under the scarf and the big fat
flower clip lol. So in addition to all that dressing up, I now will be spending
a good 5 minutes putting my scarf on again lol.
3)
Waiting In The Queue: So let’s
say todays my lucky day, I’ve chosen what I want to buy, I’ve tried it on in the
changing room plus the extra 5 minutes and now I walk proudly to the till. The next mission is actually paying for the
items, because sometimes some shops just want to torture their customers by
opening only 1 or 2 tills out of the 9 tills, so we have no choice but to wait for around 20
minutes to pay hahaha.
4)
Carrying The Bags: They say
beauty is pain, and I guess fashion also gives us pain, because now we have to
carry our handbag along with the heavy bags of shopping, we have no chose but
to walk around with all those bags for the rest of the day, what enjoy!
5)
Different Tastes: Finally
arriving home, with my fingers marked with white lines. It is time for the home
runway, this is the part of the day where my family sit in the living
room and a very proud me cat walks from my room to the living room stopping
infront of them, doing that side pose and wait for a reaction, let me just say
me and mother have different tastes so 80% of the time I get the “OMG I can’t
believe you bought that” look from her. I’ll let you guess what happens next
:D !!
Until
next time
