Shopping in British

Dear fellow readers,

No, I haven’t forgotten about you, how could I?
As I mentioned in my previous posts, I’ve been busy exploring the campus of Winchester College, while I was there on summer camp. I’m sure you’re all dying to know how it turned out for me, so I’m going to spare you from the boring parts and get straight to the most important stuff:

Yes, it is true, Westfield’s truly is the best shopping mall in all of London I’ve ever seen and I’ve been to quite a lot of places. If you’re looking for the top designer stores you now know where to go. It’s massive, but, of course, I would say that, as the biggest mall I’ve ever been to before this fantastic moment three weeks ago, was in Prague and I was done there after a good two hours. Lame against Westfield’s where I naturally spent two hours alone in the awesome Hollister shop there. Now, as a Hollister-Newbie (don’t ask me why they can’t get that one to any part of Europe besides Britain) I wondered, whoever is the manager of those stores is an unmistaken genius, because it seemed to me they hired effing hot guys ONLY! And here’s the best part: All of those tasty boys walk around in the women’s section all of the time which leaves me wondering again, are they paid to stay in the women’s section just to dazzle us and make us come again as soon as possible? Not that it would be me dazzled (rather the other way around, I think) but well, if I had it my way, those clothes wouldn’t have been the only thing I’d have taken to the fitting room with me. However, it’s brilliant and whenever I break through with my own clothing line I know I’ll be stealing that plan for my own stores. The staff would be men only, hot only and dressed in my clothes only. You know what I’m selling: Lingerie.

Joke aside, I’d make them wear a bit more, of course, you wouldn’t want them to get cold, would you? But if I’d only get half of the shoppers that were in Hollister that day, it’d be so stuffed they wouldn’t be cold anyway.
I spent the minimal amount of 94 pounds on three items only. Whoever invented summer sale was a genius.

After I’d successfully purchased a tank top, a blouse and a gorgeous sweater at Hollister and laughed at the people waiting in the queue in front of the shop. I headed off to TOPSHOP to continue my collection of comic print underwear, Dune to buy the most adorable pair of high heels for only 36 pounds instead of 76, HMV to get some Gossip Girl Season 2 on DVD and Boots to make a wonderful discovery:

Ladies and gentlemen, the eighth world wonder exists and you can find it in most drug stores near you, I guess: The very first vibrating mascara.
It’s by Lancôme and I suggest you check it out NOW! It makes the freaking most voluminous lashes I’ve ever seen! Since my parents only gave me like a hundred and fifty pounds I couldn’t afford the 28 pounds but I regret already that I didn’t use my card to pay. That’s what you get for counting it to be cheaper on the airport.
However, I used the next few days to visit another Boots store and do my make-up properly with this gift from god himself.
