A-lotty-a-dotty-a-we-like-to-party! Bee-bop, hip hop, we also like to shop!
I constantly fantasize about combining my greatest passions in life into one megalopolis extravaganza affair that‘s just too-too. Whatever could be more clever than a Vulcan mind-meld shopping-party, yeee-haw? I‘d like to know. What mad, magical, woman-centric, PR genius came up with this endeavor? Seems that TopButton and Clear Channel are putting the dream into action at the upcoming STYLE STAGE NYC on May 5th & 6th… a scheme so brilliant, I can‘t believe I didn‘t come up with it first. There will be 60 designer sample sales and deeeeep discounts (go deep ladies, go deep), too sweet.
I have this quandary: every time I step into a fetching store slamming jamming beats, I find myself grooving around in a shopping haze, grabbing up tons of stuff to the rhythm and motion. And all of a sudden, I am immersed in the changing room, clothes piled high, shimmying in and out of slinky outfits like a woman possessed. When the credit card bill arrives, I plan my defense of temporary shopping insanity. But then I wouldn‘t get to keep the fab designer bag, the pointy-toed shoes, the teal embroidered blouse, the skinny jeans that I cannot live without… you know what I‘m saying. The shopping dance is the most basic, the most pleasurable, the most elemental of womanish pastimes, on par with eating and sleeping and bragging. There‘s just nothing like the pleasure of carrying home new treasure in a sweet petite little brown bag, sassing and swaying and boasting, what a trip!
We all have our own unique shopping dance, our purchase wiggle, our buying prance. We love to flaunt our new digs, try them on, model them for the rag dolls. What is it with this obsession? Aw screw it, why try to deconstruct it, just shop till you bee-bop! And get down to live musical performances by the insatiable funky music white boy, Nick Lahey, go on, Sean Paul, it‘s your birthday, it‘s your birthday, Lucas Prata and Jagged Edge, it‘s your birthday, it‘s your birthday.
And one big giant shout out to the esteemed arts of shopping and partying cleverly blended together, may they live long and play hard!
