Brickview Apartments
Mandy's Room
September 27th
11:32 p.m.
Mandy stood in front of her closet, wondering what to wear. She needed to get ready by 12:30, when Massie was picking her up. She wanted to look extra special because this was the first time she went somewhere with the Pretty Committee.
She browsed through her clothes and realized all of her clothes were Abercrombie, Hollister, Gap, Old Navy, or something like that. She didn't have any clothes that were name brand like the Pretty Committee's. She decided to wear clothes without any logos or anything, so she wouldn't disgust them with her other clothes.
Mandy picked a baby blue wife beater from Old Navy and Abercrombie jeans. This was the best she could do without wearing anything that advertised any companies. She then slipped on the Lacoste white and blue flip-flops that were Claire's that she still had from the party and grabbed a denim purse.
Mandy was ready to go. Although she had no idea, today was the day that would make or break her.
The Block Estate
Massie's Room
September 27th
11:32 p.m.
Massie stood in her walk-in, wondering what to wear. Today, the Pretty Committee might have a new member, and she needed to look great in case that happened. She grabbed a pink tee from Guess? that had Guess? written on it with rhinestones. She also took a pair of Citizens of Humanity stretch Colorado wash jeans. She grabbed her BCBGirls pink bag. It was dark pink and light pink. BCBGirls was written on it with rhinestones. Massie also slipped on some DKNY pink mules. To complete the look, Massie slipped some burgundy, crystal, and pink Dior Strauss sunglasses onto her nose. She spread some strawberry shortcake glossip girl gloss over her lips. She was ready to go.
The Block's Range Rover
First-class Section
September 27th
12:34 p.m.
Massie smiled and laughed with all of her friends. So far, Mandy was acting pretty cool. She was actually wearing name brand shoes, but her clothes had to go. Massie made a mental note to buy Mandy a lot of stuff today if she was In.
Meanwhile, Kristen was texting Dylan and Alicia.
KRISTEN: DO U LIKE MANDY?
DYLAN: SHES RLY NICE.
ALICIA: YEAH. SHES COOL.
KRISTEN: SAME. BUT I DON'T WANT HER 2 BCOME ANOTHER CLAIRE
DYLAN: DEFF.
ALICIA: YEAH. MASSIE'S LOOKING SUSPICIOUS. LETS STOP TXTING.
All of the girls snapped their phones shut. Massie was talking about how she was going to take down Claire. "We need to take her down. Otherwise, she can ruin our social status by telling people she's still friends with us."
"Yeah. She needs to learn that she's not a charity case. She was definitely using you for your clothes, money, and popularity, Mass." Alicia rolled her eyes.
"Totally. Kristen never used me in the entire three years she was poor and knew me. She didn't even want me to buy her stuff!" Massie said, smiling at Kristen. "But now she doesn't need us to buy her stuff."
Kristen beamed at Massie's praise. "So how are we going to bring Claire down?" she asked.
Dylan smiled. "I have an idea." Minutes later, the girls were smiling. They had a plan.
Kristen yelled, "What's a six letter word for LBR, EW, and dead meat?"
"Claire!" The other girls shouted back.
"Girls, we're here." Isaac called.
The girls piled out of the car and stood on the street of 5th Avenue in Manhattan. Their shopping adventure was about to begin.
They fanned out in a straight line, with Massie slightly in front. She led them towards Louis Vuitton. When they passed Abercrombie & Fitch, she expected Mandy to ask if they could go inside. However, Mandy just kept her mouth shut and ignored her used-to-be favorite store. Massie smiled and gave the other girls a look that said she's-doing-good-so-far.
Finally they reached Louis Vuitton. The girls spread out, each going to different sections. Mandy, lost in the unfamiliar place, followed Massie to the handbag part of the store. The girls looked at many different purses, and in the end, both bought one, each paid for by Massie.
About 45 minutes later, the girls headed into Coach. Once again, the girls spread out. While Mandy was looking at the sunglasses, Massie flipped open her Motorola.
MASSIE: WHAT DO U GUYS THINK ABOUT MANDY SO FAR?
ALICIA: SHES ACTING PRETTY COOL.
DYLAN: I VOTE HER IN.
KRISTEN: ME 2.
ALICIA: YEAH. SHE DIDN'T EVEN ASK 2 GO TO A&F.
MASSIE: THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT. BESIDES, SHE KNOWS OUR DESTROY-CLAIRE-PLAN. SHE'S IN.
Massie closed her phone. The Pretty Committee had a new member.
At the end of the day, each girl besides Mandy had at least 15 bags. Mandy had eight. Massie smiled. The day had been good.
