That's not mine!

I was in H&M yesterday and I went into the fitting rooms to try two things on. The sales dude went to give me one of those number tag thingies but there weren't any "2" ones left. He was like "We don't have any 2 tags so I'll give you a 3 one" and he then handed me a random shirt that someone had tried on to take in as well. I gave him a weird look and was like" Ah, can't you give me two "1" tags instead?" And his reply was "We can't give out more than one tag." Ok, is it just men, or does that logic totally not make sense?!?!? What's the difference in giving me one "2" tag and two "1" tags?!?! I ended up with having to take in some shirt that I did not want to try on (and incidentally, the two that I did try on looked really crap so the whole thing was a waste of my time).

Victor and Rolf recently designed a range for H&M and most of the items were sold out on the first day at their flagship store. But I guess after all the hype, they're starting to send out the excess stock to the other regional stores. So anyway, I usually go to the Wimbledon one and I happened to stumble on these Victor and Rolf for H&M black jeans. Not that I am in need of black jeans (my Tsubi ones are doing just fine) but I'm a sucker for designer denim so I decided to try them on (oh, this was the frustrating part cos I had just finished with that whole incident above and now had to go back to the fitting rooms again). When I picked them up from the rack, the jeans already looked like they were a bit high waisted but I thought they could still work. OMG, was I wrong or what?! Two words - granny pants!! I don't care how much and how hard the fashion industry promotes high waisted jeans, unless you have legs like Elle or Naomi, they look really really bad on. When I had managed to zip it up (man, I hate trying on new jeans, they're a bitch to put on), the pants came up to my belly button!! I was scared to look in the mirror and trust me, the sight wasn't pretty.

Shopping is a woman thing. It's a contact sport like football. Women enjoy the scrimmage, the noisy crowds, the danger of being trampled to death, and the ecstasy of the purchase.
