Debtonista

Indebted slaves to fashion. Blend of Debt and Fashionista

“Are you a debtonista?” Miranda Smith asked in Emirates 24/7:

Do you feel a compulsion to buy the latest runway fashions? Are you a slave to the hottest trends and do you put all your purchases on plastic?

As a new round of fashion weeks begins, one British debt advisor has coined the term debtonista to describe people possibly like you, who need to stop being slaves to fashion debt.
