I went to shopping yesterday to buy a birthday present for one of my friends. As she loves accessories and is very fashion conscious, I wanted to find something neat to wear for her.
I walked around the town about half and an hour and finally found a pair of gold earrings with a unique ornament of horn. I chose it as it would look perfectly beautiful on her.
It cost about 100 dollars and was the most expensive one I have ever bought for my friends. But I am sure it was worth to buy it and hope she would like it.

Hey very nice! Something late the review, but I only notice two mistakes.
I went to shopping... -- without 'to'
...town about half and an hour... --> did you mean 30 minutes or 1 hour with 30 minutes? Well if it is the former, it would be 'half an hour', if it is the latter: "an hour and a half".
thank you GRSCEric.
I always mistake the difference 30 minutes and 1 hour and a half.
That was very helpful review:)
Very Good, only a few grammar mistakes
