Very proud of my dd (s&b related)

Dd1 (17) got her first pay cheque yesterday from her part time job. She spent today pondering what to do with and has decided to buy herself a:

Westwood orb necklace!

She clearly takes after her mother. :)

The apple doesn't fall far...!

Well done her!

I'm Envy though.

Well done her!

I was very amused the other day to see my 18mo ferreting around in the bottom of my wardrobe, pull out a small yellow Selfridges carrier and hang it on the handle of her toy buggy, along with her pink handbag.

Now trying to remember what I spent my first pay check on. Horrible feeling it was a pair of baby blue cowboy boots. Grim.

I suspect I spent most of mine on lager and black and Smiths records. :)

DD1 was a very placid child but she did have a bit of an outburst in House of Fraser, aged 2, because I wouldn't buy her red patent Moschino ankle boots! She also coined the phrase, 'shoeboots' at the same age, as that's what she called her purple glittery wellies.

I would be so proud Grin My ds has the ring but i bought so not so impressive

I have just looked at those necklaces - love them.
I spent my first pay packet on a new peach bed set to go with my newly painted peach walls and peach border!

I would be very proud if my DD did that. I spent my first pay packet on work clothes in Penny's (Irish version of Primark).

I spent my first pay check on a sewing machine, which 20 years later is much loved and much used.

I'm not sure if this makes me a S&B disaster though.

I am in the process of losing loads of weight and have promised myself something lovely by VW when I reach my goal.

That's a beautiful necklace, very interesting looking! Does the symbolism mean anything in particular?

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 12/01/2013 17:06

The orb is just VW's trademark. Well, she's bought it and is one v happy bunny!
