I Need to Accessorize More

Rating: 9/10 (9 August 2006)

I loved The Devil Wears Prada and found it thoroughly entertaining as well as beautiful to watch. Fashion is not for the faint at heart and this movie exposes the frontline in creating looks that change the world as well as the sacrifice of fighting for image and notoriety.
Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestly was a perfect steely commander of fashion, pushing the boundaries of her troops doing her gruntwork to such specification that you see the dedication or addiction to fashion.
I loved Anne Hathaway's character and related to Andy Sach's awkwardness in stiletto town but like her could've easily been swept away by a hot outfit. She had unstoppable ambition and watching her rise above each crisis without the slightest bit of encouragement from anyone.. I wished she lived next door so I can have a coffee with her and a good laugh sharing triumphs and failures.
Zero is the new 2.
Caution: Watching this movie may compel you to go on a massive shopping spree... and still not sell yourself to the devil.
I sooo need to buy some accessories....
