12 to 14 Years.

It is officially freezing in Cairo. (Well – not actually, but 25 is pretty darn cold compared to 40). I am cold most of the time and although the four air conditioners in my classroom can transform into HEATERS (it’s MAGIC!), I didn’t bring too many sweaters from home to keep me warm at the bus stop or elsewhere. This matter required a trip to the mall.

To skip to the point, H&M (yes, we have one!) had many sweaters for the approaching season and I was able to find some very adorable sweaters for…………TOO MUCH MONEY. Unwilling to pay 100 dollars for a sweater, I got the clever idea of perusing the little kid section. My verdict? BRILLIANT!!!!

At H&M Young, I purchased one new coat (which can accommodate a hoodie and is very appropriate for the winter season), two new zip-ups (colourful and cozy) and a lovely white button-up sweater (which I sported at school today)! My total bill was less than one adult sweater and a quarter and my shirts included fun stickers that said “12 to 14 years”! My style completely.

I can now cope with the cold. And the finances of imported clothing. YAY! :)
