(704) Prada!

A few years back Elizabeth picked up a second hand wind breaker. It is made of a transparent grey material, has long sleeve and a snug fitting hood. It is so thin that one can fold it into 2 cm cube little block. She keeps it and uses it because of its compact nature as well as its function as a rain coat.

A month back she wore it for the umpteenth time in the freezing university library. A friend sms about dinner arrangement. Elizabeth handed her hand phone to a companion and that sharp eyed gal exclaimed "Prada!" when she noticed the little brand label sewed at the cuff.

Last Sunday was the first time Elizabeth took her varsity bag to church, hence when it got cold out came the comfy grey windbreaker! Our fashionable dame, Veronica, straight away turned Elizabeth's wrist to reveal the little inconspicuous label. "PRADA!!!" Veronica exclaimed and it took her a few moments to have this piece of fact sinking in. After all, Elizabeth is one of the more practical females who does not pay that much attention to brand names. I suppose it must be that Veronica had not seen any new or old Prada items in our upwardly mobile new wealth crowd in church.

To be honest, if I had not watched the show "Devil wears Prada", I probably would be blissfully unaware that there is such a brand on Planet earth.
