1. Just get a load of stuff the same as what you've got already
Tee-shirts, jeans, sweaters, pants, socks - everything else is just superfluous.

2. My dear graywarrior.......
I hear ya!

I much prefer shopping from my catalog......

I have one vendor that I trust to get me good fitting and reasonably priced clothes.....

And I've stuck with that one.....Lands' End.

Going in stores makes me tired very fast!

Good luck, sweetie...... :hug:

15. oh me too!
I hate clothes shopping. When I was a teenager I was very into clothes but not anymore. If I do actually go clothes shopping (and not from a catalog but in a store), I don't try anything on. I just hope it fits and looks good or I'll return it. There are too many bright lights and mirrors in those damn dressing rooms.

17. Are you sure you're not male? That's a very "guy" feeling.
Choosing death over shopping.

20. I love shopping...
and I'm a guy.

Actually, it's quite a problem since I make nearly crap when you factor in all my deductions. I need health, vision and dental though. Pension is pretty necessary too.

24. I hate shopping too
shoe shopping especially.

The only place I don't mind shopping is in thrift stores such as Goodwill or Value Village - but then, I'd just be moseying around, rather than looking for something specific.

The only time I consider shopping time-well-spent is when I find a killer bargain. And clothes shopping is the worst. (I have a 14 year old daughter who begs me to take her to the mall. Poor kid.)

However, I just shopped for you. Would this work?

29. Might I suggest Old Navy?
Even if you're a chubby chick, they have stuff for you...sometimes. It's hit or miss these days. If you ARE a chubby chick, I recommend Lane Bryant. They have a kick ass sale going right now. (I'm a chubby chick, and I'm writing what I know. IF you're not a chubby chick, this is not meant to offend.)

32. No offense, even if I were chubby. I'm average.
Which is why I have trouble finding stuff...too many average women take it all before I get to it.

You can sit on your butt all day in my livingroom and I'll go out clothes shopping! You gotta give me your credit card, though, otherwise it won't be nearly as much fun.

34. I love clothes shopping
Every time I emerge from the fitting room I'm a different person.
And yet I always leave myself.

35. I love looking at designs. Never go to stores because
I don't have try stuff on. But, love looking at colors and lines and in general, am easily amused.

But, if you marched me into Macy's, yes, I'd just rather be shot.

lol

36. Yes...
I can appreciate fashion as an "art," but don't feel a huge need to participate since that would require actual shopping. I know what looks good on me and that's my uniform, with seasonal adjustments.
