shopping with friends?

Definitely alone. None of my female friends share my comfort with higher price points so we bond over other things. I have also never felt the need to get advice on clothing, and I would get bored waiting for someone else to try stuff on or shop in stores that I wasn't into.

I think I could deal with my mom, though. We have similar attitudes when it comes to shopping and have an accurate sense of eachother's taste.
 
It depends on what I'm shopping for, but for clothing/shoes/handbags, I prefer to shop alone. I'm a very methodical shopper, I will look over things carefully before I even try them on, and I don't like to be rushed.
 
I know this is going to sound crazy, but I love shopping with my husband. He's not into fashion, but he is my best friend. He always gives me an honest opinion, and I have taught him quite a bit about shoes and bags. He usually picks out 2 or 3 perfectly cute items every few months. I know I'm making it sound like he's homosexual, but I swear, he's straight and just loves me enough to put up with it! :smooch:

Haha I wish my DH was so patient and gave me input! We always split up when we go to the mall. I used to shop with my best friend (she's such an enabler) but now since I've got little ones, the hubby drives us there. I would much rather shop alone..sans DH lol. However now I would also much rather shop without friends too since it adds more time in the mall when I need to get home to my boys (DH can't handle them alone for long haha).
 
When I'm serious about shopping, definitely alone (or with my parents). If I want to have a fun day and just joke around, then with my besties for sure.
 
it depends where im going and who im going with, most of my friends don't spend like i do or even shop at the same stores, so i shop mostly alone.

i do shop with my mom quite a bit though
 
With my mom only. All of my friends don't get my love for high-end shoes, clothes, handbags. They all just shop at H&M and don't even know the designers I'm obsessed with. It's okay though, my mom's very much into high end fashion too.
 
WHen I was younger it was all about shopping with friends but now that I know myself and my likes I like to shop alone and not many of many friends have the disposable income I have so i dont' like anyone to feel bad.
