by the way i love your dress
oh thank you where did you buy it
i bought it at the shopping mall last
month
i used to like wearing jeans and
t-shirts a lot but now i think i’m more
into dresses
why is that i feel like i have more
choices with dresses
and i don’t have to think about what
pants will go with what t-shirts
which saves a lot of time
i see where do you buy your outfits
i often buy my clothes online it’s so
convenient and it’s much cheaper as well
as for me i like to go to the store
because i need to try on clothes before
i can make up my
mind i guess we’re different then
