Synopsis of Crazy about shopping has a sister
After a luxurious honeymoon that has lasted ten months, Becky Brandon — the world's most famous compulsive shopper — returns to London with her new husband. As soon as he sets foot at home, the problems begin, as two trucks appear in front of the doorway loaded with "souvenirs" that he has secretly bought during the trip: dining tables, giant wooden giraffes, silk robes, masks... The bills are not long in coming and, very soon, the credit card that Becky hides in her powder case becomes a useless piece of plastic. The crisis erupts and Luke imposes a strict budget on her, but the bad news never comes alone: Suze, her inseparable friend, has found another more inseparable friend, and her parents, just now, decide to confess an explosive secret: Becky has a sister. What a surprise! The idea of finding, at twenty-seven years old, a kindred spirit with whom to share her passion for shoes, sales and manicure sessions opens up a promising panorama, full of interesting prospects, which does not prevent Becky from having to find out the tastes and consumption habits of her new sister Jessica before launching the bells in the air.
