Hi Josi-
Merry Christmas, hon. And thank you for the nice post. Girl, I would love to go shopping with you, anytime, any place. I love shopping for clothes and accessories, and while not as good as some, I have fairly decent fashion sense and can put together an outfit. The picking and choosing is most of the fun.
And Josi, you do to have class and elegance, you have shown it many, many times in your posts here, so I know what you said isn't so. Fashion sense is another thing altogether, though. It is so true, Josi, fashion sense is not genetic, not at all. Many, many men, in fact seemingly most of them, have no clue at all. At all! Though to be fair, some do and not necessarily gay men only. And likewise, lots of girls don't either or at least don't bother to show it. But it's something that can be acquired and sharpened. All it takes is keeping an eye out for what you like on someone else or in a magazine and putting it together for yourself but not just copying item for item. So yeah, I'd love to go shopping with you. I'm sure you have lots of ideas that I would love to know about.
Hmm. Maybe this is an idea for the forum. Virtual shopping. For us girls who would like to go shopping together but can't because of distance or other factors. We can choose a store with online shopping, which nearly everyone has nowadays, and compare choices including accessories, shoes, etc. Of course we can't model them but we could help each other out with ideas and helpful comments. Hmm. Thank you, Josi, for inspiring what may be a great, fun thing to do.
Merry Christmas, girl.
Hugs...Joni Marie

Although I only shop on the high street Joni, I do love the idea of virtual shopping with others, it could be a good bit of fun!!
The reason being, when a guy wants to buy a shirt, he walks in the store, buys a shirt and walks out.
Now when a girl shops, she usually takes others with her and the whole fun is trying on different outfits, getting the opinion of your friends, partners etc, trying something else, recommending things to them too and just making it a whole better experience.
As you might have guessed, I love shopping!!!

Hi Nikki-
Girl, you make such a good point about the difference in how men shop and how women shop. In fact I was thinking about starting a new thread...and maybe a poll as well...on just that topic. And despite it's drawbacks, I think maybe someway for there to be feedback on clothes we are thinking of purchasing might be fun. Two or three TW girls on a virtual shopping spree. Hmmm.
Hugs...Joni Marie
