have you ever brought anything ridiculously expensive that you didnt really need, just because you liked it?
i spent £795 on a handbag a few months ago (i dont even use it now!), wondered if it was just me who did it?

I spent £400 on a Jeager coat, but i love it and wear it lots!!!!! At first it was for best but now I wear it when I want. It has lasted 4 winters so it was quite a good buy!!!

Terry bought me a lovely huge leather handbag that I said i would use as a baby bag before Tate was born, but I never did...!! It was too heavy and I was worried about ruining it! What pushchairs have you had then? and what do you do with them all. I was eyeing up a new one today a mamas and papas ziko buggy for Luka. Not that I need it!!!

They look nice but im still using the double. its just that tate starts nursery next week (only two mornings, plus i have a single maclaren which is fine!) I just like getting new ones!!

I spent 110 euros on a pair of shoes in France last year and now that I'm pregnant I can't manage the heels any more, SIGH...

They are waiting for me at the bottom of my wardrobe.

I keep looking at buggies and prams but to be honest I can't find another one that does all that the current one I have does and therefore can't find an excuse to get a new one. Sad I know...

Not that hubby has said anything but I have a cupboard full of change bags, a wardrobe full of handbags (90% from Tanner Krolle and cost, well, don't want to think about that) that I don't use and I am wandering around using the freebie change bag from Boots! I justify it by telling myself that I collect Tanner Krolle. With around 15 of them I think I probably qualify! I have a Tanner Krolle change bag but it is just soooo heavy that I don't use it.

I too have an expensive handbag, but do feel guilty about cost. My hubby bought it for me for Valentines day, never would have bought it for myself, I use it everyday though.
