Struggling with her debilitating obsession with shopping and the sudden collapse of her income source| Rebecca Bloomwood unintentionally lands a job writing for a
financial magazine after a drunken letter-mailing mix-up. Ironically writing about the very consumer caution of which she herself has not abided| Rebecca's
innovative comparisons and unconventional metaphors for economics grants her critical acclaim| public success| and the admiration of her supportive boss Luke. But as
she draws closer to her ultimate goal of writing for renowned fashion magazine Alette| she questions her true ambitions and must determine if overcoming her
"shopaholic" condition will bring her real happiness.
This middling romantic comedy underutilizes a talented cast and delivers muddled messages on materialism and conspicuous consumption.
