I heard that expression when I was younger and it rings through no matter what currency you use

So, taking it a little bit to literally, I bought a new purse.

I've always thought that expensive clothes and accessories should be the ones that you use everyday.

At about 7000 yen this Cath Kidston purse isn't cheap. But if you see it and enjoy it each time you open your handbag, I think it's worth it.

For some reason Cath Kidston products seem to be in every shop right now. I suppose the floral prints are perfect for Spring. I chose the blue Bath Flower print because it's a little different to all the pink that the label usually pushes.
