I have the taste for finer things As most of you do who are in this forum. Everyone around me doesn't understand. So the point of this is my boyfriend (dating 5+ years... This time.... haha) HATES when I purchase items from designers. Needless to say that sucks for me since we are in a committed relationship looking for a house and what not. So it serious and I have to consider his opinion. I REALLY want some Belle 85mm Boots. He says no like aggravated no. I'm not strapped for cash I have plenty of savings, stocks, mutual funds, very little student loan debt from college. I started my Etsy business to help me pay things off and it sure did now it's turning into a huge success and I want SHOES!!! Should I wait till after I work my BUTT off for the Holiday rush and reward myself or should I just buy them and say whatever it's my money. Either way i'm sure he will get mad but my logic is during the holiday time I work my day job from 7-5, make my jewelry from 5:30-11 for probably 2+ months. So I think saying it's a "reward" for my hard work might be a little way to sneak it in there
