Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous

For those fello AB FAB fans, you will understand why Harrods was an absolute MUST see. Seriously, I never had even the most remote interest in London until I became freakishly obsessed with the BBC Masterpeice, "Absolutely Fabulous". After that, it was Harvey Nicks and Harrods, "all the way, babes." And of course, those who know Drake even in the slightest, know that she has three serious passions in life: 1) puppies, 2) beef, and 3) shopping. So shopping at the 5 story high super mall (for lack of a better word) was quite possibly a dream come true for her. This establishment was opened in 1849 and it has since become one of the many grand sites in London (and other locations). It literrally takes up an entire block, and is swimming in over priced, trendy-urban-sucker fare. My personal highlight was not the strip mall of restaurants avaiable for our dining and drinking pleasure, but the sincerely surreal toy store on the 5th level that happened to be the lucky retailer of this kid's toy Hummer vehicle, at the humble price of 22,000 pounds, which roughly equates to $38,645.00 And I have the photo to prove it. This was a TOY CAR, ladies and gentleman!!! Granted, it did run... sorta, but it was meant for children between the ages of 6 and 12 to run around the street at a whoppin' 10 miles an hour. I could have and should have puked in my shoes when I saw this, but you know... didn't want to screw up the RED SHOES for future photo opps and all.

So we browsed through Harrods; don't think we actually bought anything, which is a small miracle in and of itself, but we did purchase a cool cashmere scarf a few days later for 16 pounds or something that the owner told us was selling currently for 65 pounds in Harrods. :) Drakey is a girl that can shop her arse off... but she's always been a great bargin shopper!!!
