The hard part about shopping for Christmas presents is that I find so many nice things for myself as well! Most of the time I manage to resist the temptation but yesterday I found a nice deal on the scent Clean Warm Cotton and ended up buying it to myself. (And yes - I am actually going to try to get along with a perfume that is not from Dior!)
Have you bought any 'presents' for yourself?

Det vanskeligste med å gå rundt å shoppe julegaver er å motstå fristelsen til å kjøpe noe til seg selv også! Stort sett så klarer jeg å stå i mot men i går fant jeg et bra tilbud på parfymen Clean Warm Cotton og endte opp med å kjøpe den til meg selv. (Det stemmer - jeg har tenkt å prøve ut en parfyme som ikke er fra Dior!)
Har du kjøpt noen 'julegaver' til deg selv?
way to go! its always nice to splurge on yourself! :)

I feel the exact same way! I love Christmas shopping but I'm always coming across things I can't resist for myself as well . . . yikes! I looooove that perfume line by Ralph Lauren, I think I have Shower Fresh or something like that and it smells SO good!
SvarSlettoh gosh, you know i have :) that scent sounds wonderful! i'll have to check it out next time i'm shopping.
SvarSlettI tend to buy my pen-friends things that I like myself because even though you write letters to each other and know each other really well, I always get a mental block in what to get them. I do not always buy gifts that are easy to post either... yesterday I bought 2 gifts, bought them home and decided they didn't look right so I'm taking them back and today I bought one gift that I'm so happy with and some time in the week I'm going to have to buy the 2nd one... I'm crazy I know!
SvarSlettBTW I've sent you an e-mail I hope you got it as I created a new e-mail the day I sent it so there maybe some problems with it.
I ALWAYS buy something for myself so I understand you completely ;-) But I also love giving and wrapping, hoping that the gifts will be appreciated.
SvarSlettJa, det kan du sei - d e ikje lett :)Vi har vore fri for internett 1 uka så d va arti å se på alle de fine bildan. Vi ha kjøpt en SVÆR julegave tel oss sjøl - hytte i byen! Leiligheta e i boks og dåkk får sjå den før dåkk reis heim. Vi tar fri mandag så d bli litt lengre helg når dåkk e her, klem :)
SvarSlettClean er deilig! Er sikker på at dere kommer til å bli bestevenner :)

Yes, yesterday I went to the Renegade Craft Fair and bought myself a dress and a necklace even though I was looking for Christmas gifts. I just couldn't pass up the opportunities, you know?
SvarSlettI swear at xmas time I buy more for me than anyone... this year I have stayed away from stores as much as I can.

I have Clean warm cotton myself - it´s really fresh and yummy! I try to buy small gifts for myself once in a while, just because it feels so good... :-)
SvarSlett(writing in english because it feels natural to do so since you too have many english speaking readers)
I've resent it hopefully its a case of 2nd time lucky.
SvarSlettI try to avoid buying things for myself during the holidays, unless its a small purchase. But i love giving presents, so I tend to indulge in wrapping paper and those sorts of things.
SvarSlettOh my, I just bought my mom a sweater and could not help myself from buying a dress for me along with it! Curse shopping.

Well I may have done a little clothes shopping...I mean everything is on sale right now :). Merry Christmas to me. Hee hee.
SvarSlettI like you.
SvarSlettI got a sample of Clean Warm Cotton with some things that I bought online at Sephora and absolutely love it. Its on my X-mas list :)
SvarSletthaha i agree. so many temptations when shopping.
SvarSlettno. i haven't buy any for myself.
SvarSlettprobably i'll get that during my holiday in HK this xmas. sometimes i get so confused too. heheh
Not lately:-) I tend to buy everything for Baby Z, but i have splurged on myself before though...That Clean Warm Cotton sounds like it should go on my shopping list:-). XX
SvarSletti definitely suffer from the "one for you one for me" mentality...maybe even "one for you, two for me"?:(
SvarSlettright on sista! totally! I'm having difficult times on getting presents for people because I always ended up buying one for myself :P suffering so bad :P
SvarSlettClean warm cotton? Well that in itself sounds like it smells divine!

warm cotton sounds delightful. this time of year is so treacherous - there are so many excellent deals and I SHOULD be buying gifts for others!!
SvarSlettxo,

Today I went to the mall to buy Christmas gifts - but ended up buying more of those wonderful candles the pizza guy likes for myself! I did get some good stocking stuffers though!
SvarSlettthis is so true for me too! i keep finding things i like too much to stop me from giving them away as gifts! that perfume seems to be very crisp and refreshing...enjoy sweets!
SvarSlettIts so true..I often find stuff for myself while shopping for gifts! That sounds like a great perfume and its lovely to treat ourselves from time to time:)
SvarSlettHappy Monday, sweetie pie
I couldn't agree with you more Signe. It's hard not to shop for yourself while buying for others. There's so many wonderful and sweet things out there.
SvarSlettxoxo
I confess, I asked John to at least letter the gift tags on my presents-I bought all of them! But at least I showed great restraint and wrapped them!
SvarSlettI agree with you. I end up spending double the money because I buy stuff for myself too. It's dangerous on my wallet! That cologne looks so pretty. Is it Ralph Lauren? I imagine it smells great, and I'm on the hunt for a new cologne.

I have not given in to the temptation of my own satisfaction this year. Yeah, I'm super surprised too.
SvarSlettThere are SO many things I want. So whenever I go into the stores I make it a point to get out as fast as possible!
