Be A Better Shopper IV: Know Your Limitations; The LOVE List

So you made your need list and all your needs have been met. You've paid your rent, have credit in your phone, stocked your kitchen with more than 'Pot Noodles' and suprise suprise, you've still got some extra dough! Yipee - time to break out your 'Love' list and do some shopping! Oh you didn't make a 'Love' list yet? Silly me! Your 'Love' list should be chock full of things that you love. The things that make you you and show off your unique style. Shapes, colours, accessories and even beauty products that may not be totally necessary for day to day survival but you adore, and having them make you happy. Maybe you like an insanely stylish embellished pair of jeans that doesn't really translate into your daytime wardrobe. Buy one pair anyway for your nights on the tiles! Maybe they don't go from day to night but you love them and you deserve to have them! Perhaps you can't make it through the week with out some crazy expensive eye cream or highlights from FAV colourist. Go ahead and get them. What are on my personal Love list? Great red lippy, statement heels, my signature scent and more!
