Shopping Girls: Ashley Tisdale and Vanessa Hudgens
Returning from a trip to the Rome International Film Festival for promotional duties, Ashley Tisdale has got busy with her activities in the United States. The 23-year-old cutie was spotted leaving her home in Toluca Lake, California on Tuesday, October 28.

Ashley looked pretty in a teal party dress as she made her way to the car for an evening outing. Accompanying the young actress was her mother Lisa, who was spotted following behind her.

Later that day, Ashley, casually dressed in jeans, was seen with her "High School Musical" co-star and BFF Vanessa Hudgens on a mini-shopping spree at Treat for the Face. The two appeared to be a bit camera shy as they tried to hide their face during their outing.

Ashley previously revealed about her friendship with Vanessa, saying "With fame and success you do lose friends because of jealousy and competitiveness. It's different with Vanessa and me." She told the Daily Mail, "Nobody else can understand what we've been through in the past couple of years. I can go to Vanessa for absolutely anything and I can always trust her. We both grew up in musical theatre, both have recorded our own solo albums and both love performing - yet there's no competition between us."
