Music Speaks: The Musings of a Teenage Girl: woolworths

Hey guys!
So today, day 10 of our South Africa trip, was shopping day numero dos. Although today was not nearly as spectacular, to say the least, as the first I still enjoyed myself.

Another picture in heaven a.k.a Woolworth's shoe section(check Wednesday's post here)

My outfit today was a little more tomboy-ish than usual(which was what I was going for). I wore the floral shoes(see here) with this outfit.. I pretty much went Au Natural with my make up today(don't you just love the random touches of foreign languages in this post?) and threw my hair up into a cute, messy bun. Getting ready today took me like 5 minutes...it was great. While shopping, I just couldn't resist trying on the "Lady Gaga shoes" (or so my mom calls them) that I have been eying for our last 3 visits to Woolworths.

After returning home my sister and I began making dinner(my mom instructing me what to do every 5 seconds because I can't cook if my life depended on it).

Perfect bonding time for us

Hey everyone!
So today was the day I had been looking forward to all week. My mom, sister, sister’s fiancé, and I went to one of Joburg’s many malls. Let me just tell you now that you haven’t been shopping until you have come to South Africa.

First of all, I have never seen so many malls in my life. If I were to take a guess I’d say there were some 10 or 15 malls within a 60 mile radius. They are everywhere...I’m not even joking. Last time we visited this lovely country we went to like 5 of them.

Also, they are huge and each one is unique. Some of the malls have up to three or four stories, now that may not be that much… But coming from my town, that has one mall that is one story and probably only has 50 stores, it is amazing. Every mall has at least 3 stores in common (Edgars, Woolworths, and Mr. Price) but all of the little boutiques are different.

These malls are seriously like heaven for me. I could spend days just browsing through all of the stores. I found a couple of really cute things today. But since I am running on a pretty small budget I tried to shop only on sale racks. Sadly, I still spent $70 on only three items (it was worth it).
