When the going gets tough...

the tough get shopping:-)

Recently someone told me this statement and couldnt believe anything was more true than this!

Last weekend I shopped for some clothes....and i thot then that..this is it...now all my shopping from Bombay is done...dont "need" anything more...!

Realised I spoke too soon...just yesterday I realised I "needed" more shoes....my old shoes have...well...become...err....just old i guess....and yes thats reason enugh!!

And just when i finished shoes i realised there was yet another "need" of some more clothes since the wardrobe wasnt complete yet!...sigh!!....See I told ya...Its soooo hard to be a women!

Well the interesting part is the way I have managed to convince everyone that all this really is a "need" and not a "want".....err..for that matter "all" shopping for a women comes out of only needs.....right?

And of course after a hard 5 day week...we all deserve some way to recuperate and what better way than to flounder the money we have slogged sooo hard to earn...satisfying our "basic needs"...

Sigh...did i mention its tough to be a women??!

LOL. You had to convince people your were "needs" not "wants". How dare anybody question a woman's shopping excuses!

Funny that your shoes are old. I think in case of women "old" is more psychological. In my case "old" is physical. A shoes has to have physical holes in it for me to call it old and change it :)

Ah we all need new shoes, but that doesn't mean we don't need the old ones any more! did you throw the old pair after buying the replacement? Thought not :D

Hehe...funny. Nice marketing strategy this could be, with companies using blues to boost sales.

As a self respecting woman, you're bound to find it hard to supplement your shoe collection. It's great being a man. I have four pairs of footwear.

Trainers, which I wear 90% of the time.

Black formals, which I rarely wear now.

These speedo slippers, I've progressed beyond the blue bata chappals

And some generic nike sandals.
