Author note: Thank you for all your reviews. I didn't expect so many the next day.

None of the shops in this story are biased on real shops! 'Filthy but gorgeous' is real but it is only biased on the name.

Gabriella closed the front door of her home and waved at her friends who sat in Sharpay's new car. Gabriella walked towards the car; her black high heels clicked against the red drive way. She was dressed in dark blue skinny jeans and a white and black flowy top with a strappy white t-shirt under it. She climbed into the back seat of the new pink SUV. Next to her way Kelsi and Taylor was sitting at the front.

"Sharpay new car?" Gabriella asked knowing it was but Sharpay always had a story behind her expensive purchases.

"Yes. Daddy said that I need a better car than my convertible, for when I am driving home from University. It's kind of a well done for my exam results." Sharpay explained as she back out of Gabriella's drive. The three other girls looked at each other with a confused look, Gabriella decided to ask.

"But Sharpay, You haven't taken your exams yet. How can you get a present for doing well?"

"I know but I managed to persuade daddy to give it to me now." The girls laughed at the way Sharpay had her father wrapped around her little finger.

"Gabriella what sort of dress are you thinking of getting?" Kelsi asked her friend. Today they were shopping for Gabriella's dress for Troy's première.

"I don't know. I think that it should be a summery dress. Nothing too posh, its not an award or anything."

"That makes sense. We can go to some of the independent shops in LA. You don't want to be wearing anything that anyone else can where." They all agreed that they wouldn't want to wear anything similar to everyone else.

Sharpay parked her SUV in a space outside the row of shops. They walked up the row and looked at all the shops. They walked into a shop called 'POP' it had a white canopy with the shop name written in colourful letters. The manikins in the shop window where dressed in cool, bright clothes.

When they walked in they saw the clean white shop with the rows of clothes placed around the edge and clear topped tables in the middle. They looked around at the dresses and Tops they had around the shop and the three girls sat outside the changing rooms on the brown sofa while Gabriella tried on the clothes.

The first dress she walked out in was a dress that came above her knee; it was white with spaghetti straps. There was gold sequined detail going from the top of the dress to just below the bust. The bottom of the dress puffed out in ruffles with a bow just before he skirt puffed out.

"What do you think?" Gabriella asked her friends subconsciously when she walked out of the dressing room.

"It fantastic, I love the gold detail." Sharpay said getting really excited "the white makes you look so tanned." Sharpay continued

Taylor was the next to talk "It is a lovely dress, but don't you think it is a bit too short to meet his parents in?" She suggested trying not to sound rude.

"that's what I was worried about. I think it is amazing but not for this." Gabriella said before doing one last twirl in front if the mirror and then walking back into the changing rooms.

The three girls sat in silence waiting for Gabriella to come out before Sharpay turned around to the shop assistant that was hovering behind them. "Excuse me," she said to the assistant trying to get her attention. "Do you have the dress she was just wearing in a 1" The assistant nodded and walked to the back room to try and find one.

The next dress she tried on was one that Sharpay had insisted she wore. She walked out in a halter neck, pink dress. The knee length dress had pink sequins under the bust. It was something that you would expect Sharpay to wear.

"WOW! It's amazing. So pink. So glamorous." Sharpay said clapping her hands excitedly together.

The three other girls look at each other, hesitant looks on their faces. The dress would be perfect for Sharpay, pink made her light skin glow, but Gabriella's naturally tanned skin was paled, her breasts where almost invisible from the cut of the dress. It didn't look good on Gabriella.

Taylor and Kelsi shook their heads and Gabriella simple turned around and walked back into the changing rooms, nobody apart from Sharpay said anything.

"Wait, what is wrong with that dress. It's perfect."

Taylor and Kelsi started a quiet convocation about school while waiting for the next dress.

Gabriella walked out of the changing room back in her own clothes, "Shall we find another shop?" Gabriella asked. She saw only two of her friends now sitting on the seats. "Where is Sharpay?"

There was no words, Taylor and Kelsi just lifted their hands and pointed towards the cash register. Sharpay stood handing over her America Express credit card in return getting two large bags filled with clothes and shoes. The black bag with white polka-dots was held in her manicured nails as she walked over to her friends.

"Ready to go?" Sharpay asked

They walked out of the shop and down the road to a shop called 'Filthy but Gorgeous.'

They walked into the stylish shop, The Gold and beige wallpaper made the wall sparkle. Pictures around the walls and dresses hanging off the wall, gave the shop an amazing look. The clothes for sale where displayed on dress makers manikins.

The girls walked around the shop looking at all the jewellery, shoes, accessories and clothes. Gabriella found the dress that she wanted. She quietly walked into the changing rooms on put the dress on while her friends were still looking. She slipped the dress over her head and smiled as she saw the dress on. She walked out of the dressing room and stood in the partition between the shop and changing room.

"What do you think?" Gabriella asked and her friends turned to look at her all smiling.

"That looks great gabs." Taylor said watching as her friend walked back in front of the mirror.

"I think it is perfect." She took the Pink, Black and white material with large flowers on it through her hands. The dress had an empire waist made by a black strip of material and was strapless. It was a floor length dress that was very summery and looked perfectly fashionable, casual and summery.

"It is Perfect Gabriella." Kelsi said looking at her friend. "What shoes would you wear?" she asked

"You should wear, Gladiator sandals and colourful bangles." Sharpay suggested and they all nodded.

They found gladiator sandals and colourful bangles and wooden bangles that gave the dress an African feel.

It looked perfect, it would be really nice at the premier. They all agreed
