Definitely jewelry ! Always looking for that unusual piece ! Love it all - earrings, necklaces, bracelets. Most mornings I decide what jewelry I want to wear and pick my clothes around it !!

Handbags and shoes for sure! Just bought myself some new cowboy boots this past weekend. I'm always buying new bags. It's very, very hard for me to pass up a cute bag. I'm working on losing weight so I don't love shopping for clothes, but cute shoes and bags don't discriminate.

It used to be purses, but I haven't really been moved by a bag for several years now. I rotate through my collection and still enjoy them, but my pulse doesn't race in the accessories section anymore. I have a fair number of shoes for someone who's not really into shoes, but I got rid of a lot of them when we moved. Clothes, meh. I like looking good but honestly I'm not going to need to dress up most days so I don't have an extensive wardrobe, unless you count pajama bottoms and scrubs Nail polish is my thing right now. They live neatly tucked away in three Ikea Helmers. *whispers* there are hundreds...don't know if I want to admit the actual number here.

Purses and shoes. Size doesn't matter with these. They always fit!

Bags - no, I gave away all but two of mine a couple years ago and never looked back. Okay, one found its way in. I now have a small black Coach hobo I paid $6.99 for at the thrift, a large tan Nine West tote, and a red faux leather bowler. Done.
Shoes - no, I have about six pairs and they are all boring, haha... But my plantar fasciitis is under control and I have all shoes that don't aggravate it. So I am happy with that arrangement.
I do like jewelry, but my taste is simple - I have a little collection of silver crosses that I wear most days.
I also like clothes, but I have a very small closet so I have to keep a simple wardrobe. I would love to rotate out some old stuff though, and add a few things to make it more interesting.
I think my splurge item is usually olive oil and good vinegar. I eat it on my salad most nights. I love to go to Sur la Table or Whole Foods or even Homegoods and try new ones.
Oh... But books. Oh my, the books. Yes, the books.

Jewelry, hands down. Especially rings because I can see those all the time. When I get compliments on my necklace or pendant, I always have to reach up and touch it to remember what I put on. My hair's getting longer so earrings aren't as fun, although you wouldn't know that by looking at my jewelry "case" which is also a stand-up mirror. Handbags are next on the list, although I have enough now that I can't even justify buying another.

Probably art. I've lost most of my vices but I do have some art stacked up like cordwood. :/ It probably would be watercolor supplies but I pretty much have everything you could imagine. A tube of watercolor paint lasts a REALLY LONG TIME so sometimes I look wanting for something awesome and I already have it all! lol. Paintbrushes are expensive, sometimes I get my fix with a new brush.

I was in the nail salon in the mall yesterday. I had 2 seconds to look. Lots, and lots of beautiful polish. I mean tons of it. Gold polish. Your nails would look like gold bars. OMG i loved it! Problem? I have ugly natural nails. So much nice stuff though.

Paintbrushes are expensive, sometimes I get my fix with a new brush. If I painted anywhere nearly as well as you do, I would be addicted to painting supplies too. You have an amazing eye for detail. Some people can just get their hands and mind to work together and come out with a masterpiece. I don't know how it works really. Something in the brain just connects and tadaaa!

I can't resist nail polish, even though I can't wear it to work. I also love pens.

Purses - it seems like I'm always in search of the "perfect purse" which I'm convinced they haven't made yet. Part of me is sort of glad I haven't found one because then what would I do? Last week I did order a Frye bag and I must say I love it! I'm not a shoe person, but I did end up getting Frye boots to match

It used to be scrapbook supplies, but I have way too much to ever use. I have always loved books. Since I have a Kindle, I now hoard e-books!
I would love to be obsessed with shoes and clothes but I am so overweight that going shopping for either one is a lesson in frustration. It is common to come home from clothes shopping in tears.

All of the above!
If I had to order them it would be : purses, shoes, clothes. I have a major Kate Spade addiction right now.

My thing is fragrances, and has been since I was around 10. My mom's BFF would bring me those little department store perfume sample vials whenever she visited. I was hooked.

I wish we had a Nordstrom let alone a Rack. I mean that would be heaven on earth! We have The Bay and that's it. Not a great department store...it is better but not great. We're getting the first Nordstrom in Canada here in Calgary in the fall My weakness is actually books ... I have so many on my e-reader I'll never catch up

In the city I live in we have a store for women who are more than average. The clothing in there is not available to smaller women in town. We are talking colour, design, style, more colour and these are beautiful designers. I would take a video of the store if I could. We aren't talking Lane Bryant or anything we are talking beauty here. I took a friend of mine there one day and she was in awe. This store used to have another store downtown too that was for smaller women. It had beautiful clothing. I bought the odd blouse here and there but it was where you got your clothes if you were a somebody in town. Unfortunately the owner wanted to retire.

Clothing, then shoes. Because I have to have shoes to go with the clothes, right?

I have a hard time finding clothes that fit right. I think I'm shaped weird. Purses are just aren't my thing. Buying shoes is a pain, literally. I have arthritis in my feet and finding ones that don't hurt can take forever. What's hard for me to pass up. Yarn! The closet in the guest room has almost no room for guests to use because it is so full of yarn and yarn crafty things. I do use it. I just buy more than I can use. It's so purty.

I think everyone has *something*. For me it's never been about things like shoes, clothes, purses, etc. It usually is whatever I'm "in to" at that time in my life. I'm a bit of a nut about gadget stuff. And stuff to make life simpler. Which in the way I apply that, it doesn't always appear to be the case. For instance, at one point last year I was so frustrated at always having trouble finding a charging cord for any number of devices we/I have. When B&N put my Nook HD+ charger on sale for 1/2 price? I bought two so I had a total of 3. This allows me to have one in the LR, one at my work desk and one by my bed. Right now, I can only find one. I ordered extra cords for my iPhone 5 from Amazon. Their cord is sturdier than the one that comes with the phone and it's longer. I finally found both of those again but can only find 1 of my 2 Apple versions. We do finally have enough micro USB cords. Lots of gadgets we have use that. And then of course, all the blocks that go into the wall go missing. I should have 3 different Nook Simple Touch blocks around. Only one is currently is available. And for a while after getting our horses, I was obsessed with buckets. I know, weird right?

Bags (not purses) - Filson, Fjällräven, Qwistion, Sandqvist - they are my crack.

Shoes, but have a hard time finding them.. I am not a medium, however wide is to wide. My feet always always hurt even in a little heel. Maybe I need to buy shoes a little more expensive and they would fit better? I typically buy at Kohl's or Penny's. But I love looking at cute high heel shoes, or cute flats.
Clothes.. if I am on a roll, I love buying clothes, but I can go forever without finding a thing.
Purses.. love love purses.. I don't spend to much on them, but I do love them. My most expensive bag was $100 that my dh bought me for Christmas.
If money was no object, well I would be spending MUCH more time finding cute stuff!

My vice is buying nice purses. My husband and kids give me a hard time but it is the only thing I spend $ on. I am very particular about the size and straps on a purse.

All of the above! Il have more purses then I could ever use, more shoes then I will ever wear, and clothes also. Although I did purge quite a lot with the move coming up.
