What’s so cool about Abercrombie & Fitch?

March 25, 2008

As previously posted I came back from NY yesterday, we did a lot of sightseeing and quite a bit of shopping too, I’ll write about that later, cause I haven’t gotten my suitcase yet because of the plane delay-mix up shiz and I haven’t transferred my photos either. What I do want to mention though is the american brand Abercrombie & Fitch, before I left for NY everyobdy was going on about how I HAD TO go to Abercrombie & Fitch, and uhm well so I did…

First of all, when I entered the store down at Pier 17 I walked into a huge, gloomy basement with dusty (or atleast they felt dusty) wall-to-wall plaid carpets right behind the door a salesman stands welcoming everybody with a "Hey! what’s goin on?". Geez I’ll tell you what’s going on, obviously I’m shopping! Anyways the clothing at A&F are reeeally dull with polo shirts, shorts and tank tops in white, navy and yellow hues, so not my style. Anyways I found a couple of cute tops, but the only sizes that was laid out was small and extra small, in all clothing except the jeans…That might be okay for girls like my sister who’s a size zero, but most people aren’t, anyways it took the grumpy, stick thin saleswoman  some time to  trace down two tops in medium which I bought, one baby blue PJ like sweatshirt and a navy top, how controversial! :O

A few days later I walked past the A&F store at 5th avenue where people were waiting in line around the corner outside, I just DON’T get it! But the guys working at A&F are kinda hawt though! Yes, people should be able to wear what ever they want, and I don’t really have anything against people who shop at A&F, but I am also entitled to have my own opinion on the subject.

I "finally" gor back from NY today, should have been back on sunday morning but because of stupid ass Finnair whose plane didn’t work we were put in a hotel in queens and had to wait til the next evening, as standby passengers to Munic, and in Munic we had to run a marathon between the terminals to get the last tickets to the last Munic-Oslo flight today, luckily for Finnair they got us in and I got here in time to hold my extensive presentation on the economic situation in Mozambique tomorrow which I haven’t started yet…and now i’m jetlagged, I’ll write more on the trip later on :D

 I’m feeling a bit like a bird in a cage at the moment, sitting here trying to write a nynorsk article on the author/playwright Ludvig Holberg and his play "Erasmus Montanus" it sucks big time! I want to go to New york tonight! I’m leaving on saturday and promise I’ll make a new header when I get back with some birds or something, I found the photo above and other fascinating photos of male models and birdcages at fashion156.com today…I’m stressing before leaving for New York cause I’ll porbably have to plan all my outfits since I’ll bring a minimum of clothing across the atlantic cause Finnair allows us to bring two suitcases of 32 kg each per person! I’m going to be so broke when I get home!! Stress at school too, the mentioned article is due tonight, tomorrow its yet another french test, on thursday I’m going to court with the law class and on friday its an oral hearing in history…AND I have to write my columns for portrait mag before I leave…and I’m going out on friday night, no matter how early we’re leaving on saturday!! hehe *sigh* I also have to go to the gym an to karate practice this week…
