Do you speak Prada?

If so, Confessions of a Shopaholic should totally be on your to-do list for Valentine's Day weekend. Isla Fisher (love her) plays Rebecca Bloomwood, a girl obsessed with brand names and designer finds. Says Rebecca, "You know that thing when you see someone cute and he smiles, and your heart kind of goes like warm butter sliding down hot toast, well that's what it's like when I see a store."

The forever fab Patricia Field (of Sex and the City fame) is the film's stylist so we can expect a ton of quirky looks, from vintage to high fashion. Ms. Field describes Rebecca's look in the film as "a little eclectic mix of something cute, something designer. It was an opportunity for me to create a different look for people to see that they haven't really seen before. It's fashion-forward but also a little exaggeration for this extreme character who can't stop shopping."

The film was shot in New York City, using stores such as Henri Bendel, Catherine Malandrino, Barney's and Prada as the backdrop.


Methinks this movie will definitely hold me over until SATC 2 hits theatres! You can see the trailer, here.

I like her anyway, so I would love to see it just because of her. The movie does look hilarious.
