[Maggiesgirl]

Mine are 2 Audible credits a month and Ancestry Subscription.

I dont wear make up, not fussed over clothes, shoes or bags but woukdnt give up the above unless I really had to.

A really good quality planner. Expensive but I use it all day every day so it is nice to have something that feels good.

Which planner do you have. I bought one online and it’s disappointing to say the least. Thin paper, smaller than indicated etc. I’d love a good quality one.

Oh yes also in the market for a good planner!

I want one that is:
Week to view
Has a month planner at the start of each month
Preferably a tab for each month also
Somewhere for notes
2022 and 2023 year planner included
A5 at least if not a4

Not sure if that even exists!

Coffee pods, flowers and eco cleaning stuff , oh and chocolate

Oh! Dear!

Having read many of the interesting responses, I'm far too ashamed to mention mine now!

Kindle books - I buy what I want when I want with no regrets
Archer & Olive journals

As many kindle books as I want and a box of milk and dark coffee cremes from Audreys, every month without fail!

Really nice knitwear - wool, alpaca, mohair.
Candles from White Company or St Eval
Perfume
Flowers - I have a Bloom and Wild subscription and also just bought pots of hyacinths for every room

Dr Martens, Wool, Books and 'back in the day comedies' like One Foot in the Grave, Keeping Up Appearances etc

Tom Ford perfume
HD lashes
Clinique skincare
Glossier brand make up
I pay to have my ironing done
Nice tea bags!
For all those who have said luxury towels? Where on the high street does luxury towels?
Mine are all from Asda! 😆

Oh and a lovely navy blue radley bag 💼

Monthly hairdresser for my roots and my bean to cup coffee machine.

Diptyque perfume and candles.
A very nice piano
1000 thread count bed linen
Cashmere clothing
Audi soft top.
Great hotels

But, I don't have a cleaner and rarely visit the hairdressers. Do my own nails and never drink takeout coffee so I figure it's even.

Oh I love this thread.

Neom candies
Monthly manicure and pedicure
Eyebrow thread and tint

My pony. Technically 2 but one is a family pony outgrown by the dcs but kept because no one could bare to part with him. But the big one is very much mine.

Nice coffee, kindle books and amazon music are my others. And nice bed linen.

Typing that makes me sound like a grown up.

Yeezys

I buy expensive teabags, get my nails done every 3 weeks and pay £4 a month to have no adverts on itv!
What an exciting life I lead!!!

Cleaner
Nice coffee beans
Tesco home delivery
Working part time
Clarins skin care
Mac make up
Magazine subscription
White Company bedding
Silk pyjamas
Cashmere socks

I can't think of any.

Audible
Les Mills subscription
Hideously expensive bedding (which feels like heaven)

Other than that, not much. I am quite minimalist by nature and don’t tend to have expensive tastes.

@coodawoodashooda you are a better woman than me! I was looking at my list and thinking is anything I do not a luxury! Department store make-up, £28-50 dress (from Boden/joules/Gudrun sjoden), Salon dyed hair (£100), contact lenses, synagogue membership, eating out twice a week, nice groceries (DH just spent £14 on caviar today; we went to Waitrose yesterday). Carry an expensive backpack

I mean our furniture is cheap , we don't have a car, we own a flat so it's not like we can spend lots on loft extensions/home improvements/lots of furniture (which is what the British middle class seem to spent lots on), we don't have cats and dogs (only a tiny hamster) so I suppose we save money on that front... I have a cheap phone and don't care about hotels- stay at premier Inn/budget hotels.

I like nice bath stuff - salts, oils etc

I get flowers delivered once a month, but that's from a birthday present from DH. When the subscription runs out I'm going to carry it on though, I love it!

I don't drink, smoke or go mad with clothes shopping etc though

Expensive tea bags
Expensive butter
Luxury hand wash
Magazine subscription
Luxury candle
Rituals toiletries

@seekinglondonlife

It's only really now in my 40s I'm starting to enjoy paying a bit more for sonething that will give me some joy. Nice towels, Egyptian cotton bedding, food stuffs from Fortnum & Mason. Zero interest in clothes, hand bags and shoes, or stuff for the house. I also travel as much as possible.

Yes I'm exactly the same! Hit 40 a couple of years ago and suddenly started to realise that I deserve treats too

Oh! Dear!

‘Having read many of the interesting responses, I'm far too ashamed to mention mine now!’

Not at all! Please do share.

Luxury is totally subjective.

Dunelm do a towel which is made of cotton and blended with silk. About £40 for a bath sheet.

They are gorgeous.
