I’ve always been a material girl. Being the youngest of three girls my youth was showered with hand-me-downs. My childhood was filled with an excess of Barbie’s, roll on glitter, and funky key chains. And so it’s no surprise that silly material things make me feel better when my day is down.
Taken from the all time 2009 classic, Confessions Of A Shopaholic
Here is a list of things I’ve bought recently that I don’t need but I needed to buy:
- Over expensive posters. This includes a “doughnut worry” poster that I could have painted myself and a poster of stick houses.
- Non bras. You know the kind. The ones that look so cute and sexy on the hanger but, on, make your boobs look kind of sad.
- Coffee table books with intriguing cultural photos. The only problem with this is that I don’t own a coffee table.
- HUGE candles. Hey John, Winter is coming and these floral scents will out ward off the white walkers and keep us warm at night.
- Crop sweaters and crop tops. You really only need two crop tops. Max. You never need a crop sweater. If you need to be wearing a sweater it means it’s too cold to be wearing a crop top, and if it’s hot, you will be wearing a crop top, not a sweater. But alas, the store got to me and I have several of both.
- Boy underwear. I am ill. I need comfort.
- Lacy underwear. Just because I’m ill doesn’t mean I need to be a complete slob. I can be sexy for me!
- Bubble bath and bath salts. All well used.
- Journals. There is something calming and beautiful about buying a fresh journal with a cute urban cover. Even if you have 4 other fresh ‘urbanish’ journals collecting dust in your small bedside table.
- Tea.
- Tea cups
- Tea tumblers.
- Tea pots
- Ice tea
- Ice tea Jug
- The David’s Tea Enterprise
- 3 star movies from itunes
- Scented body lotion
- Face masks
- A hand held face massager. Seriously obsessed.
- Glitter. Eye shadow glitter. Blush glitter. Art supply glitter. Glitter Paint. Glittery nail polish. Glitter makes the world go round.
That’s all I can think of right now – I’m sure there are some weird items I’m missed but I think you get the gist.
Stay Gutsy,
