Happy Birthday to
87wt2gxq7!
The obscure The Nanny quote speaks truth, alas.
Coming back from Paul's, I discovered myself in Birmingham, and decided to go hunting for a new purse. Which naturally involved a spending spree in the process because the shops were all empty at 9.30am...
But since I'm no longer going to be spending the money in Derby, I might as well spend it on something more lasting anyway.
So.
H&M
~ Black and white striped top with off-the-shoulder rouched thing and button. It's hard to describe. The website's bloody useless or I'd post a photo... (£14.99)
~ Cerise mohair jumper with wide turn-down at the neck, and two big bobbles hanging off it. It was the bobbles that sold it, really. ;) (£19.99)
~ Six little butterfly clips in black, as they work better than hair grips in my hair. (£1.50)
Total: £36.48
Primark
~ Leather belt, blue, filigree/jewel buckle (£3.00)
~ Canvas belt, dark pink, holes punched all the way down. (£1.00)
~ Ditto, but grey. (£1.00)
Total: £5.00
(Oh, come on. I paid about £12.00 for a similar buckled-belt from New Look in February...)
Topshop
~ Jeans. Coloured stitching and interesting back pockets, otherwise fairly ordinary. I just had a jeans craving. (£30.00)
Stall on New Street
~ Purse (£3.00)
Grand Total: £74.48
Uh, yeah. It was an accident, I swear... Shopping makes me happy. I can't quite pinpoint whether it's the getting of new things or the general spending of money, though. Or perhaps a combination of the two. My shopaholism actually declined when I started getting the bus home from work on a regular basis in January and wasn't being picked up, because we'd inevitably go to Asda or Matalan and I'd buy things. But anyway, it's been a very long time since I splurged, and it's all very pretty...
Photos maybe later if I can be bothered...
Edit: ( Photos! )
No, I have no idea why you people would be interested in my purchases, but it's easier than describing them... and yes, I'm bored.
