Haha, MNG is GREAT. And they have the most awesome catalogs (sadly you can only pick them up in stores). But they feature people like Penelope Cruz and other famous Latinos.

Ok yes I have a problem I just changed the above post 3 times because I have so many places I shop! Shabby Apple is one of my faves love the stories that go with the dresses. Mod Cloth I get sale prices and my cousins wife writes the descriptions and works for the company so I get very good deals. I always have a excuse to shop LOL. It is very good for the soul:)

Haha that's so awesome...I love to shop too and this is the closest to "designer" that my budget can really afford. But they are such cool stores and the models are like REAL models...not like JCP or whatever you know? I'll check out your sites tomorrow. Just got in from being out with my friends and now its bedtime.

They are my 2 fave shops especially when it comes to more dressy stuff. I love Zara most I think. I think Penelope designs for Mango with her sister! They also feature people like Scarlett Johansson and Sienna Miller, people who are generally known for being stylish beauties, and happily, a variety of sizes (still all with killer figures) I have to shop for my sis who's up for an award, I will post pics (Monroe's figure, Pete Wentz's dress sense... she's my living Barbie doll!)

Hey that's really cool! Where I come from we don't have designer available like this...Mango and Zara are just coming to the US and only to really exclusive places. But Mango has a line thru JCP now that you can only order online or in special stores (MNG has their own store inside JCP) and they have some sweet stuff that's actually affordable.

Just got back from fruit shopping at the "feria" (farmers' market). We got so many wonderful fruits and veggies...I'll have to post pictures of some of the more exotic stuff. The flavors are amazinggggg

I get excited shopping at the market too! If I go into the pharmacy I am always really happy taking my little basket around smelling the bath products or picking up a new remedy. My girl friend is the same way we sometimes meet to just shop together for our bath products. I also found great ways to save while shopping I discovered coupons LOL I know its sounds dumb I never used them before. So when I save I put the savings into Jacob's college fund. Any type of shopping is fun if you like it. I do not CAR shop tho. I send the husband for that and he brings the paper work home for me to sign that is one sort of shopping that annoys me beyond anything~

I hear you about the car shopping...is the same for me with furniture shopping...boooooring. But clothes I love, good food(like going to Trader Joe's), books, girly things like bath and body...Victoria's Secret...that kinda thing. And shoes are my ultimate weakness. You know when I need therapy when I buy lots of shoes.

So I fell in love with Anthropologie...so cool. Tomorrow I am going to MNG at Multiplaza Escazu. I was in Zara at Multiplaza del Este which is a lot closer to here (its in Zapote and I'm in San Francisco de Dos Rios) than Escazu. Tomorrow is our big shopping day. YAY!

Anthropologie is the best place for home decor too:) I throw little shabby chic things in from there in my bedroom. The bath products are amazing too and the candles LOVE THEM! Have fun shopping:)
