My style ~ Louise
I love shopping! I go shopping every weekend.
I really like wearing different styles. Today Im
wearing jeans and a T-shirt. Ive also got a
ring and some earrings. The ring is the most
expensive thing Ive got.
I also go shopping for my brother Pete because
he hates shopping. He likes polo shirts and black
trousers, and he always wears trainers. The
shopping centre has the best clothes, so I always
buy clothes for him there. Sometimes he buys his
own clothes, but its not a good idea. Yesterday
he bought a horrible tracksuit!
Today Im looking for a new bag, so now Im out
shopping again!
