Alice, 35 years old
I like shopping, but shopping with young children is not a good thing. I have to look after them while I'm shopping. I go shopping with my husband only when I want to buy something for him. When I look at a cheap dress, he always says, “It's nice on you.” But when I have an expensive one in my hands, he always says, “I don’t think it fits you well.” So I often go shopping with my friends. It’s fun.
