I love Fashion but hate Shopping

^agree with you on everything.

I always go shopping alone or with my sister who understands me and gets my mood
 
It's not that I hate shopping but I don't like other shoppers and SAs much. If I didn't have to interact and even look at other ppl shopping would be my favorite thing to do. And because the internet provides such circumstances I prefer online shopping.
 
I cant stand SAs they are so mean nowadays and unhelpful... so so unhelpful to the point where its like "um i would have bought this if you didnt completely ignore me the whole time i was in here".

what about when they talk to you while your in the changeroom - SA: "Hi so how did that go?" - okay fair enough question i will answer "Not happy, the strap looked funny on my elbow and it was supposed to sit on my groin wasnt it?". SA: "Oh thats no good, no good at all, we've had alot of people say the same thing. Can i get u something else?" - U struggle and get stressed trying to put ur actual clothes back on while trying to reply to SA - "No really, I am good." - SA: "oh thats too bad, can I get you something else"....


VICIOUS CYCLE REPEATS until you walk out of shopping centre and forget where you parked your car

me: AHHHH

I would compare how frustrating this is to bookmarking the page for a dress/top/skirt etc. from an online store and going back to the link the next day to find the item has sold out.

You made me chuckle. Know what you mean.

I love shopping and in the current state dont have much money to spend so happily window shop... and I'm a guy :)

I love shopping, be it for myself, my sister, my mum whoever! as long as I know them.
 
I love shopping and wish I had the money to 'shop' couture, tbh haha. Good customer service thrills me. I think that's what it comes down to, really.

I am writing about this exact issue in a book I am releasing in about a month, and have found most people hate it purely on the social/communicative front.
 
Another thing that I hate about shopping is how many stores don't educate their sales people on the brand/product. All my trust goes away when I realize that I know more about a product than the person paid to sell it to me...
 
Add to MimiV's, I also want to add Sales people who are not motivated.

I was feeling a bit horny and went to La Senza store and the sales assistance was least interested in the display... and that resulted in me not liking anything... it was a bit of a downer save for one mauve set.
 
I hate handing over money...I nearly always want to snatch it back. But shopping can be fun only for me, I tend to take a long time agonizing over what I will purchase. So I never shop with friends or family.

I love the idea of shopping-everytime I go, I have a list ready and whatnot. I feel that what influences me the most is how I look in the clothes. Of course, it always looks good on the models but seeing an item on myself can often be very disappointing, so I end up getting discouraged and not buying anything at all.
 
I realised that I rather want to shop by my own than with friends.
I mean I like to look through the stores with my gfs and tattle about outfits but if I'm really searching for something certain, I rather like to be on my own and take my time. Otherwise I always feel under pressure to find something so that the other one doesn't feel bored in any way.
