ok i 've two general wonderings about clothes shopping. 1.how many of your clothes do you buy on the internet?i 've never bought any clothes off the internet. i like the actual going shopping for them far too much and i never know if i am going to like sth until i've tried it on and then been round every other shop in town just in case there is sth better. 2. when you do go out to real shops to buy clothes do you prefer to shop alone or with a friend?

1. I have never bought clothes from the internet, not that I couldn't but I have a sensitive skin which would rash easily if I wear clothing with some kind of fabric. So I should touch the fabric to make sure it would be fine to be wear. And I need to try on a clothes before actually buy it, to make sure I wouldn't look silly on it. My partner bought t-shirts from the internet, just because the cute design of the t-shirt. Usually the unique and limited edition only. 2. I'd rather go shopping my myself. Going with friends would distract me from buying things I like. They would ask me this and that, they would started to suggest stuffs to me and either I wouldn't buy anything or I would buy everything. So, for me, for an efficient and effective shopping, I'd rather going all by myself.

That's true. Size from different factory might be different, and though buying clothes from the internet might be somewhat cheaper but it would be useless if it wouldn't fit you well. This is applied to shoes as well, I wanted to buy some shoes from the internet too, but the fact that my feet is easily hurt stopped me to do this stupidity. Surely, we can not compare ourself with the model who wears those clothes.

i seldom buy clothes but when i do, i usually buy it at the store just because i like to see what the clothes look like on me. sometimes it may look nice but it could cut all wrong for your body.

i actually am a constant ebayer. probably an addiction in a sense. the prices are great and if you need more info you can contact the seller. payment is with paypal so everything is safe. i hate going into stores for hours, trying stuff on, just to fall in love with it and have it be way to much money. and then start it all over again. ebay has stores that i can browse threw and way better prices. if i dont like it when i get it some dealers do refund or exchanges. if not well i bought 5 shirts for the price of one. so either way a 1 out of 5 ratio still puts me way ahead of the usual. plus i can do it all at night laying in my bed and dont have to waste my precious daytime on boring, frustrating, exhausting, mind numbing department stores. gross! ebay also has tip and articles about how to spot fakes if your a name brand shopper. and like i said there is stores that strictly deal is certain things like purses or bras ect. i love my sisters method. she buy all the women she knows cute purses and clutches for christmas. all brand names. but she saves so much money buying them on ebay that she can afford to get everyone one. i got a d&b clutch that in outlet stores was about $75 and she won it on ebay for $30. thats amasing and thats why i shop online. cause its amasing!
