I had one picked out and everything (peach and sparklie) but chickened out. Funny you mention it though, because waiting for a plane to come into Frankfurt today, I had to wait through a plane from New Dehli, and it got me thinking. I spent the hour's ride home telling myselfto just buy the stupid sari- even if I only wear it at home. And PS- if you enjoy BUST you whould check out my all tim fav chick-mag BITCH (http://www.bitchmagazine.com/). It rocks my world. I went through that phase a few years ago.

It's weird. You want to embrace diverse cultures, and be all "we are the world", but then you realize that you are an overprivileged white girl and you presence is really just a reminder of financial and social inequities that you would like to combat. I'm not sure how to get past this. Shopping certainly doesn't seem to be the way. Yeah. It’s weird.
