I feel in the need of treating myself to something special. This summer, I have no holidays plans so with that saving in mind along with the dullness of staying put (and probably enduring more rain), I think I need to buy myself a staying at home present. Yes I am trying to be logical about buying things for myself – it’s a gift!
I have a few ideas of what I should buy but thought I’d test opinion out on here to make sure my treat is the right treat. So over to you guys to vote for what my purchase should be 
- A new handbag - I’m liking this Juicy Couture one …
- A new piece of jewellry - my top choice would be an evening watch with some sparkles on it (I only have a black leather one) or some diamond stud earrings.
- A pair of designer sunlgasses (I currently wear a £15 pair from River Island)
What do you think?

/ June 8, 2011I like the watch or the sunnies idea….!
I’m not going abroad this year… you could go on a city break to somewhere in the UK!

/ June 9, 2011Sometimes that costs as much as going abroad!
Julia (AKA Jules)
/ June 9, 2011I’m going on at least two this summer. Really, it doesn’t cost the earth!
Actually, i’m going to cornwall too. But that’s a freebie holiday so doesn’t count!!
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Freebies are the best! Especially as you can’t guarnatee the sunshine here
Julia (AKA Jules)
/ June 9, 2011the freebie one’s free cos we’re staying with family plus daddy gets his petrol paid by company. And my 2nd city break is rather cheap (i hope!) as am too going with dad so only have to pay for hotel….! x

/ June 8, 2011I’m liking the watch the most for sure. Sunnies and bags can be very seasonal whereas watches can last a lifetime. Happy decision making! x
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Good point, thanks!
tinkerbelle86
/ June 8, 2011id go for the bag. sunnies get broken so easily x
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Yeah I’d prob smash them!
egills
/ June 8, 2011Handbag! A girl can never have too many bags
( Also being of the 4 eyed variety sunnies are a waste of time for me..). Never wear a watch.. my mobile tells me the time.
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011So true!

/ June 8, 2011The bag—the bag—I have an outfit made for that bag.

/ June 8, 2011How ’bout all three?
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011I like your style!
Sophia @ Raven Waves
/ June 8, 2011Go ahead and treat yourself!! I think you have some great picks there. I’m especially loving the purse! I think I’m going to treat myself to a new one too. Most of mine are black/brown and those dark colors are not going to work during the summer!
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Ooh good plan, go for it!
SuziCate
/ June 8, 2011What would bring you the most pleasure. I’m personally very rough on sunglasses, and don’t like wearing a watch unless it’s beaded like a bracelet. Now, purses? I’m a sucker…I’d go with the purse! I like the one you picked!
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Good suggestion!
elvishjesusfreak
/ June 8, 2011I completely relate to justifying what your buying! I’ve done that several times, but I think your justification makes perfect sense! I personally would go with either the sunglasses or the purse!
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Yay glad you think the same way!
nrhatch
/ June 8, 2011I wouldn’t get any of them.
I never try to cheer myself up by buying stuff.
I would take the money and buy an “experience” ~ a class, a day of museums and lunch, a boat ride, etc.
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Ah you should treat yourself – you’re worth it
nrhatch
/ June 9, 2011I am worth “it” . . . but I don’t want “it.”
The more stuff we buy, the more stuff we have to take care of. After years of de-cluttering the “stuff” I bought in my younger years . . . the happier I am.
Less is more.

/ June 8, 2011The handbag!! You will use it more frequently….and, like shoes, you can never have enough bags
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Good point!
countingducks
/ June 8, 2011Well I’m a manso the watch would be the only possibility !
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Haha you’d look good with the bag
Deborah the Closet Monster
/ June 8, 2011The purse! My only “but” is that I think you ought to by two of them, and send the second one to me.
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Haha good suggestion
simplyshaka
/ June 8, 2011I love the idea of designer sunglasses. Unfortunately, I lose everything so I buy the cheapo kind but I say splurge and buy yourself a nice pair!
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Yeah I’m a bit worried I’d lose or break them!
seegirlsmile
/ June 8, 2011you deserve to treat yourself.
on an unrelated note…were u ever a Madonna fan back in the day?
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Yeah love Madonna, saw her live once she was great!
Mindy@FindingSilverLinings
/ June 8, 2011The watch all the way!!!
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Tien
/ June 8, 2011Love love love the bag Vix! And its got your symbol, the butterfly! Too cool
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011I know!!
D...
/ June 9, 2011Ooooohhhh the diamond earrings all the way. Whenever I am blue I go with diamonds, they’re an investment. I’ve had my studs for almost ten years, changed the settings once but they are a staple. Or get a necklace, if you are willing I would get a stone and have it set. I got one from Diamonds on the net, and you get the GIA certificate. GIA certs are nationally recognized authentication, so you’ll know what you get. It’s cheaper and you know everything about your diamonds. If and when (because all girls deserve diamonds) you do decide on diamonds let me know, I could give you pointers if you’d like.
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Diamonds are a girls best friend
Souzapalooza
/ June 9, 2011Get ALL of them! You deserve it!
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Excellent idea!
Tipsy Lucy
/ June 9, 2011I love Juicy! You can’t go wrong with their high-quality items.
vixter2010
/ June 9, 2011Yay!
Surrey gal
/ June 10, 2011Get all of them!
If you have to choose one, probably the bag will give you most use. Or actually invest in nice sunglasses, they add the glamour instantly!
Bonnie
/ June 13, 2011I love the handbag, and a nice new pair of shades always makes me feel better (unfortunately none of mine are designer). Actually all three of those items spark my interest as I love watches as well.
Nice choices!
vixter2010
/ June 14, 2011I know, it’s hard to choose between them
