I just want to cheer myself up a bit. I'm back in work and have spent a while economising. Now I just want to buy some new things but the question is what to buy!

A new handbag will perk you right up.

dior creme de rose lip balm is a lovely treat. or one of the dior nail polishes. each time I buy a little treat like that they add in further freebie treats like foundation samples serum samples etc
a lovely scarf
or just wander round tk maxx and see what you may find!

I was at the Estée Lauder counter yesterday and laid it on thick about being at home with the DCs for so long, bought a couple of things and they threw a gazillion samples and freebies at me.

Well what do YOU want OP? I never have that problem, I'll just go into one nice shop and then I want approx. half of everything they're selling.

I've spent so long economising that I find it really hard to spend money - I know it sounds ridiculous. I think I'm in the mood for accessories or a handbag!

Well the sales are coming soon so maybe browse handbags that are about twice what you want to pay, make a shortlist and when the sales come, stalk and splurge! I am currently doing this... How much do you want to spend and I'll find you something lovely Smile

Ooh and look at Becksondergaard scarves too, there is little more cheering than his scarves with stars or hearts all over Smile

Hi, I'm not a big spender but I'd spend up to £100 on a nice bag.

Love those scarves by the way - they are just my thing!

I would buy perfume and nail polish.

What I really want to spend my money on at the moment though is a Chinese massage. But I don't feel as though I can justify the expense!
