There must be a reason why girls grow up to love shopping and men can’t bare a trip to the local shopping mall. And that reason has been revealed by new research that found that mothers will splash out more than £1,338 on new clothes, accessories and school uniform for their little girls - £126 more than they do on their sons. The study found that parents will splurge £212 on outfits for their daughter to wear on special occasions and just £170 on their sons, a hint at perhaps why girls love getting dressed up for a big event.
