Shopping in the city is very fun!

So, to treat myself for my birthday (and because I desperately needed some winter clothes), I went to San Francisco by myself for the first time to go shopping. It was kind of scary, but also exciting, to be in such a big city with so many people by myself, but I liked the anonymity of being in such a huge place where nobody cares who you are. I bought some cool stuff and spent a lot of time admiring the sights and sounds of the city. I was amazed by the vast number of people spending huge amounts of money on designer fashion stuff. I went into Bloomingdale's to use the restroom and I passed by a coat priced at about $ 1,900. I'm surprised there are so many people that can actually afford to shop there. I kept myself confined to cheaper stores yet I still managed to spend a lot. My biggest purchase was a beautiful black, wool trench coat priced at about $100. The next biggest were the real Levi's jeans from the Levi's store for about $58.

This is only something that I allow myself to do a couple of times a year. I'm a very good saver, but I thought I deserved this especially after all of my hard work to gain this weight. I'm now officially a full size 2 in jeans! I wouldn't have been able to say that a year ago. Zero is a sad size for me. The number 0 makes it seem as though I don't exist or something. Now I am a quantifiable size! Yay! I'm also filling out tops and I have a more female looking upper body since I gained a full cup size. Yay for the bench press!

So I basically just wanted to inform everyone of what a great time I had shopping in the big city. Now I have to work on art homework.
 
lol @ zero makes you feel like you don't exist.

Glad you had fun.
 
Oh cool. SF is my favorite place in the world to shop! I just love the feeling of walking around downtown. The city has a great vibe and great stores all located in one convenient place!

Congrats on the size 2 and all your new birthday goodies!
 
Since I hear San francisco is supposed to the Gay capital, did you see any gays walking around and making out in public?
 
I'm from SF and honestly, I don't think I've ever seen a gay couple making out in the middle of downtown. But, you do see many couples holding hands and sometimes a kiss here and there.

Why do you ask? Just curious?
 
No I really don't see many gay people making out in public in SF just like I don't see many straight people making out in public there either. It's interesting to hear that you say it's the gay capital, I didn't know many people had that conception about SF.

And yes, it's a very fun place to shop it's much better than the mall in my community. Everything is so much bigger and more exciting. Oh and at Abercrombie and Fitch (no I don't shop there) they have live male models standing outside of the store. They're pretty hot. That's something you don't see in my neighborhood mall.

LMAO, that reminds me so much of a South Park episode where Cartman says that Africa is a bad place because 'my mum says there are lots of black people in Africa'

And Spicy, SF has that reputation globally, not just in the US. I have a gay friend who flies over at least once a year, it's like his Mecca and he makes the pilgrimage with a group of friends very regularly

If I had to make a pilgrimage to anywhere in the US it'd have to be the deep south because of all the cool dips, sauces and relishes that come from down there :)
 
I went shopping and bought some jeans from TJ Maxx for $15. Big spendin' this weekend...
