New mamas need bling As my buddy Liz informed me when I got pregnant with my firstborn, in certain neighborhoods in New York , giving birth is an event worthy of jewels. I have a birthday gift basket for him site. It pretty much covers birthday gift basket for him related cards and gifts.
Consider the handbags of the wardrobe. There is the grotty one you picked up for £5 from Bags-U-Like but where the strap nearly broke after the second time you tried to carry a book in it. Then there is the £10 one (sale price) from a shoe shop which is very comfy, just about right, but actually a few weeks of using it (and remember, the litmus test of a handbag is can it fit a bottle of wine in it) is looking rather shoddy. There is the £20 sparkly one from Monsoon you bought cheap because it looked pretty and you thought you were bound to use it at some other time. And then there is this one, at £25 a bargain of predicted longetivity, stylish enough to go with a dress for a wedding, no less, but also suitable enough for day to day. If it lasts 12 months that's only 50p a week and considering it's emotional value, that's bargainous.
I'm 29, female, and a successful professional. I have a good job, a fantastic boyfriend and wonderful friends. I also burst into tears and want to hide from all of those things on a regular basis.

Yes, that's reasonable. Buy it.

£25 is fine for a special handbag.

Well in that case I'd better buy it... :-)
yay! :-)
If I leave work on time I can get there tonight...
Also, I'm a bit concerned about comment no. 2 that seems to be implying that a bloke has got pregnant...
