Short description

In the glamorous world of New York City, Rebecca Bloomwood is a fun-loving girl who is really good at shopping - a little too good, perhaps. She dreams of working for her favorite fashion magazine, but can't quite get her foot in the door - until ironically, she snags a job as an advice columnist for a financial magazine published by the same company.

What's left behind the scenes

The novel by Sophie Kinsella (in this project, she also served as a producer) is set in London. The film's setting was moved to New York for the American audience, and specifically for a female demographic (a trend that began with the success of the series "Sex and the City" (1998-2004)).
In preparation for her role, Isla Fisher attended sessions with psychologists who work with people experiencing an irresistible urge to shop without need, for the pleasure of the purchasing process itself.
In one episode, an employee of the magazine where Rebecca worked, after viewing a webpage, excitedly exclaims: "The Chinese are reading us!!". However, the text on the webpage is in Japanese.
In the episode where Rebecca is riding in a taxi, posters for the films "Prince of Persia" and "Darwin's Mission" can be seen reflected in the window.
