H&M sales



Offers have already begun last week (at least in Portugal) but, as usual, awful clothes, never ever ever seen before, come out of the dark! I love H&M but their sales are not fair. You cannot expect to buy the piece you so much wanted on sales because they'll just not put it on sales. The only stuff you get to buy on sales are clothes that have been in their basement since the 80's or clothes from this season: the ones nobody bought because they made you think "OMG, who's gonna wear that?!".
I've seen some girls working there while putting the clothes on sale and one of them picked a skirt and asked the other "where did this come from? It doesn't even seems like our stuff!" - i told ya!

* available only for old stuff

sex and the city 2



Last weekend i went to finally watch sex and the city 2. Altough i've been reading some really nasty reviews i couldn't wait to watch it myself. I'm a huge fan of the tv series and as the serie's over i was hungry to watch another piece of Carrie and her girlfriends.

I have to say i enjoy it, not as one that likes cinema, but as one that likes sex and the city - the series...because it is an episode with 2,30 hours! So for a huge fan, who has already seen it all but can't have enough, it's a gift! For a cinefile, it's a movie crime to call that a movie!
Carrie and her friends are fun and wise as usual, what's changed is their age. They can no longer ignore that they're no longer fresh. And photoshop isn't helping...this movie's poster was a photoshop disaster, considered the worst movie poster ever by Sky Movies.
I liked very much the initial credits, you can watch a bit on the official website of the movie, better with the interactive trailer to get clothes' tips. (About Carrie's stripes t-shirt, i have it, i bought it like 5 years ago, it's from Zara, but they don't say it on the interactive trailer!)

Clothes. They changed it more than a lot of times. It's almost a fashion show. I think it's way too much. There are some changings that are way too ridiculous, like when they went to the desert in high heels! And then Miranda suggested going for a camel trip, and they all said they weren't dressed for that so Miranda said the arabe shake had thought about that and picked them some changing clothes. After that we see chanel bags coming out and them dressed all differently...the shake picked some personalized clothes...yeah, right. Carrie (except for the stripes t-shirt) is always dressed with red carpet dresses, even for being at home, laying the couch. Even if it's a very expensive, isn't that too much or is that what we're supposed to do to keep the flame alive in a marriage?
