× So I decided to stop buying online and to go to the shop and buy offline.
✓ So I decided to stop buying online and go to the shop to buy offline.
The phrase 'to go to the shop and buy offline' is awkward due to the unnecessary repetition of 'and' and the preposition 'to' before 'go'. The corrected sentence removes the second 'to' and combines the actions more smoothly. Also, 'buy offline' is better expressed as 'go to the shop to buy offline' to clarify the action.
× However, for work or meetings with client, I prefer fashionable shoes.
✓ However, for work or meetings with clients, I prefer fashionable shoes.
The word 'client' should be pluralized to 'clients' because 'meetings' implies multiple meetings with multiple clients. Also, the preposition 'with' is correctly used, but the noun should be plural to match the context.
