NY Times names Frugalista a buzz word for 2008

The New York Times’ reporters are such wordsmiths! The alpha paper named "frugalista" one of the top buzzwords of the year.

Says the paper:
Frugalista is a person who is frugal but fashionable.

Of course! I need to become a modeling agent and book all of this blog’s readers! Swagger abounds!

I’m overjoyed that people are really getting the frugalista philosophy. It’s a hot word but shouldn’t be considered trendy. We are rolling the frugalista lifestyle right into 2009 and beyond!

Have a great Christmas Eve,
Fruga!

*If you are wondering why I have an afro in that picture, I went to a 70s party recently. I spent $20 on the wig, which is reusable. The rest of the stuff is from my closet. SHAZAAM! Foxxy Cleopatra watch out! Foxxy Frugalista is on the prowl!

I love it!
I enjoyed the other buzzwords as well.
Especially, “Mavericky.”

Yes! You ARE the word! Love the afro. It’s as becoming as the flat.
