For most people who get paid monthly, tomorrow is Payday and what better way to celebrate than a spot of shopping. I'm not usually one of those that goes out especially on payday to buy something, but when there's a sale, I hate to miss out on a few potential bargains. House of Fraser, one of my favourite department stores have just announced their 40% spring sale and as I've just received a bonus from work and it's payday, I'm eager to treat myself.

Top of my list right now has to be a good swimsuit. I don't have any holidays planned at the moment, but I regularly go swimming at the gym and recently I've lost a fair bit of weight so my usual swimsuit no longer fits me. Swimming is really good for my arthritis and has been helping me keep my energy up whilst I have been poorly lately. A good swimsuit is something I really need to invest in right now and House of Fraser has a great variety of swimwear. I'm in love with this Seafolly Kabuki Bloom Maillot swimsuit as the pattern is summery and I love halter neck style swimwear. The ruching around the waist helps deter from any muffin tops and the busy pattern gives the illusion of a slimmer waist.

Next on my list is a small handbag. I own lots of handbags but most of them are large totes used for shopping or carrying around things for work. I'm looking for a casual handbag that I can use when meeting friends or those days when all I want is my lippy, purse and a car keys. I love Michael Kors and cannot live without my other MK handbags. This Michael Kors small Selma handbag is aqua blue looks perfect for the summertime and would add a lovely burst of colour to any outfit. At £112 down from £140 this is a bargain and I can see this selling out rather quickly.

Perfumes are one thing I have no shortage of, but I do love collecting them. I'm looking for a summer fragrance to add to my collection and this Viktor & Rolf bonbon sounds perfect. Fruity and floral with a hint of caramel, these scents sound like a match made in heaven and the bottle is feminine and pretty.

Finally a new outfit wouldn't go amiss and as the summer is drawing nearer and the weather is getting brighter I'd really like to buy a new dress and a comfy pair of wedges. I really like the look of the Millie Mackintosh Long Sleeve Lace and Tulle Mini Dress and this would look perfect teamed up Dune Jaxon block sandals.

Do you have any shopping planned?
