After the shoe hunt was over, I spent a little time perusing the aisles of the very posh Hazelton Lanes shopping mall.
I cruised through the stores pretending that I could, on a whim, purchase anything I wanted. Clerks with exotic accents told me they had the "perfect" belt or jeans for me, all grossly out of my price range, but the clerks seemed oblivious! I sauntered between the racks and laughingly admitted that I would "have to consult with my other half before I came home with yet another designer belt!" The clerks happy about the potential sale, giggled as though they knew how that felt, never realizing that I had no ring on my finger.
After doing this for a while, and seeing how outlandish, extravagant and downright pretentious it all was, I realized.... I wouldn't mind this. I wouldn't mind truly walking into a store to buy a belt without giving it a second thought, even at $425. I would love to own multiple pairs of Manolo Blahnik shoes without wondering where I could get a loan to pay for them. I want to be able to shop at Holt Rentfrew. Buy Jimmy Choos when they are NOT on sale AND damaged! I WANNA BEAT IMELDA MARCOS!!!!
Ahem... but now that I know what I want, I just have to figure out how I can get it. Any ideas?
