shopping with buddies!

so i did end up going shopping in the city on tuesday. :)

first, me & 3 other friends dropped by martin place to get free manicures (yay!) and i got red - we got a base coat, then 2 coats of the colour of our choice (there were 6 colours, 2 reds, a fuchsia pink, black, grey and neutral, i think) then a top coat. since the event was sponsored (or whatever) by sally hansen, the nail polishes were [obviously] sally hansen. the colour i got was called sonic boom. (epic, right?)

i forgot to say that before our manicures, they offered us a bottle of either diet coke or vitamin water. i got diet coke (gasp!). i hadn't had a soft drink in a while.

while we walked to pitt st westfield (while being careful of our newly done nails), we talked about random things; most likely one friend's obsession with omegle (and a guy she met on there). we went into valleygirl first and i, being semi-broke, bought a necklace that was 5 bucks (on sale; yay), even though i really wanted to buy the entire shop.

we left after about 20 minutes of browsing and then went into diva, sportsgirl and jayjays (not necessarily in that order) and i bought 2 pairs of sunnies from jayjays. i had no idea they gave free cloth cases for them. i got a red one with a sesame street design and a yellow spongebob one. i like sesame street and spongebob. :)

and in sportsgirl, we were looking at the shoes and it was cool. i like shoes. they are, like, my life. just kidding. though, i really do like shoes. and i love shoe shopping...especially with my mum, since, you know, she has the money and all. i put on one of the display shoes. it was blue and polka-dot-ty and pretty. :) luckily they put a size 7 on the shelf. glo has a picture of it somewhere on her camera's memory card.

after browsing outside, we went into the actual westfield and i was dazzled by the classiness of it. definitely too sparkly and posh for me. ;) as we were walking, one friend eventually led us into guess. i was like, "why are we even in here?" it's not like we could afford anything. oh well. we could always browse and window shop and marvel at the stuff (was there really anything to marvel at? i've seen better in cheaper shops).

we then headed into zara which i remember thinking to myself was very "hustle and bustle"-y. glo led the way down into the kids and women's section (the floor below where we entered) and we stood around, looking at the stuff and waiting for catherine to arrive.

by then, we were starting to get hungry and decided to head down to the food court, but got distracted and went to myer instead. we headed up to the very top to get to myer basement (weird, i know) and went around looking at the racks.

we didn't do this very long, because people were getting hungry. so we left cat there and the rest of us went all the way back down to the food court. eventually, we finished eating and cat came back down to meet us.

we turned into zu shoes and wowed at the pretty shoes (not so much annie), while daph commented on the high heeled-ness and cat got excited over a pair of lace-up booties with a slightly chunky heel (they were pretty).

we also went into dotti, which i also like. in here, annie and i argued about the difference between clothing and accessories (which is absolutely ridiculous, because they are totally different). i do not understand her, i really don't. oh yes, and gloriana bought a pair of $20 jeans which look absolutely fabulous on her (she has skinny legs!).

after we left pitt st westfield, we walked around, into cotton on, where i [again] fell in love with clothes. however, none of us bought anything (being slightly broke and wanting to save money) and we then walked into priceline, where annie compromised (i had a deal where i said that we wouldn't go home until she had bought one new article of clothing) and bought a covergirl eyeliner for $13.95! expensive, i know. she promised me she would wear it on the next civi day. if she doesn't she will die. i also found the sally hansen bottle of nail polish that i used - sonic boom, remember? - it's $14. :O lucky the manicure was free.

the last shop we went into was the body shop, where all of us tried out the scented fruit body butter. the strawberry one smells exactly like strawberry-flavoured hubba bubba gum. i had cravings for it after trying out the body butter. the pink grapefruit one smells nice, and so does the mango one. :) i really wanted to buy one BUT it was $28 for a 500mL one. freaking NO. i am not spending 28 bucks on 500mL of body butter, no matter how nice it smells.

we then walked to town hall station and i picked up an mX, which i read on the train, while i sat by myself and listened to music. ha.

i forgot to mention that glo got excited at the sight of sugarfix and that i have an obsession with sunnies and hats. i really want a big, floppy, coral or fuchsia coloured hat. :(

in other news, earlier today, i got my expanders off, and i can now say 'cute' and 'thank you' properly. exciting, i know!

i think that's it for now. (that was pretty long)

laters everybody! xoxo

hugs and kisses for everyone! taylor zimmerman? two for you. glenn coco? FOUR for you, glenn coco! you go, glenn coco...and none for gretchen wieners, bye.
