Over at Stirrup Queens today Mel is asking her readers, “What was your last splurge?” I had to laugh when I read that question (especially after reading about her splurge!), because anyone who knows me well will almost certainly guess that my own indulgence would be something in the bag/purse/wallet department… and, predictably, they’d be correct!
I don’t know what it is with me, but every now and then I find myself on a quest for The Perfect Purse (and, slightly less often, The Perfect Wallet). As it happened I was recently in search of both at the same time, and since I was actually able to find them within a week or so of each other I’m going to answer Mel’s question in the plural with a photo.
My Latest Splurge(s) – Fossil Purse & Wallet
Aren’t they pretty?!
Now remind me how much I love them in a few months when I get restless and feel the need to go on a new quest. 😉
What was your latest splurge?
Please share!

Cute purse and wallet! I know what you mean about getting bored with your purse. I grow tired of mine after a while and need a change. I didn’t splurge and buy one this time though and just switched back to another one.
What did I splurge on this week? Hmmm. Probably Starbucks coffee as I could buy cheaper coffee or only make coffee at home. That is my biggest splurge as I try to be frugal most of the time but don’t like to skimp on coffee. Can’t stand that Tim’s crap except for ice caps.

I’m with you on Tim’s! I give it another chance every now and then, since Peter likes it, but no… just too watery and weak for me.

They’re both fab! I have a weakness for great leather purses too. Now I hold back. You’re tempting me to get a new one. 😉

Pretty wallet and bright to draw other’s attention 🙂 My latest splurge is buying clay diyas for Diwali as I am learning to paint them a lot.

Nice splurge. My last little splurge was having a tote bag hand made for me – a chicken fabric pattern, special pockets I requested, and handles measured for the length I needed. The woman I purchased it from is a local woman raising five children while her husband is seriously ill, and she (and one of her daughters) does excellent work.

We are such sisters!! For me it is usually between a purse and foundation… sometimes, um, both . This last time was foundation.
