The best teenage school film plot: Cher and Dionne are the most popular girls in the school and their looks are envied by all. However, they can be insecure too. And obviously, they have to go shopping often. 'Clueless' has everything but a clue: there's style, color, and, most of all, attitude.

Holly and Paul are two neighbors eager for success (which is not forthcoming). They decide to spend a day doing things they have never done before, like browsing the jewelry collection at Tiffany's. The store front is Holly's favorite place and she always goes there to feel safe when she has a bad day.
The successful Disney series 'Hannah Montana' was turned into a film giving birth to one of the most entertaining teenage films. In this scene, the characters played by Miley Cyrus and Tyra Banks were fighting over a pair of shoes in a shop. Who would win?

Of course, this classic belongs in this list. It's not necessarily about shopping itself, but the world of fashion and advertisements for shoppers is at center stage.
