Confessions of a shopaholic!!

Shoppinggggg!! I guess all of us just love to do that(atleast most of us). The joy of getting brand new clothes, shoes and accessories gives us immense pleasure. And the feeling that we get after buying these cannot be explained.We just feel that the world is a better place to live in to quote the words of the protagonist of the movie "Confessions of a shopaholic". That's a pretty good movie. A light hearted, enteraining movie but comes with a message. A movie that's is most wanted in times of recession and pink slips.

The movie shows a journalist who is addicted to shopping and keeps buying whatever nice things that she sees on the shop window and ends up with a huge credit card debts. She is such a big fashion freak that she wants to become a columnist of a fashion magazine and applies for a job in her dream company.Since the position that she had applied for had alreday been filled she ends up attending the interview of a finance and savings magazine. To her surprise the inteviewer is the same guy whom she had seen in a hot dog shop and who gives her a 23 dollars for buying a green scarf as she had exceeded the credit limit in all her cards. Though she was the wrong person for the job , she gets an offer from the firm and is forced to accept it to repay her credit card bills.
But in contrast to the expectations she becomes a very popular columnist of the magazine by writing a column on credit card usage titled"The girl with the green scarf".The story is all about this shopaholic girl and how she finally comes out of this addiction to shopping and in the end wins the heart of her magazine editor. My rating for this movie is 4/5. I had awhale of a time watching it. So what are you waiting for ...?Grab your pop corn and enjoy this movie. It would be a good weekend watch!!
