A girls favorite thing to do, right? Go to the mall with a group of friends, try on clothes, buy things!!! Not for me! Don't get me wrong...I love shopping for clothes just as much as the next girl but not usually with the girl friends. Its hard shopping with a bunch of girls with different styles than you, that won't give you honest opinions on your clothing and will talk you into buying something that you know you will never wear. We don't realize we are being pure pressured into buying certain things until we get home and realize we will never wear what we have boughten. Maybe this isn't how other girls feel but this is how I feel. My favorite shopping buddy is my husband. He tells me when he doesn't like something, he knows my style very well so he is very helpful at picking out clothes and he understands my anxiety of spending money so he understands when I like something but don't buy it and understands I will return it a day later if I do. This isn't the case on all things but there have been very little times that I have gone with my husband and came home regretting anything I have bought. He is the perfect shopping buddy(except for the fact that he hates malls and has turned into quite the complainer.
Anyway, back to the point of this whole thing. I found a girl who I actually enjoy shopping with! This has only happened a couple of time in my lifetime. Donna, my sisters, caroline, mary and my mom are all actually very good shopping buddies. Well, now I have to add Lauren to that list! We shopped for a couple of hours yesterday and I found it actually enjoyable! Lauren respects my fashion sense and gives me her true opinion when I try things on! It was a good way to start off my day off! There are some things I bought and actually won't be returning :)
