When LO turns one, I plan on treating myself for surviving the first year as a new mom. I can't decide if I want to splurge on expensive new shoes or a new handbag.
Which would you choose?

Shoes. A lot of women need bigger shoes anyway after carrying a baby!
Also, you'll probably be hauling around a new diaper or toy bag, so you really can find reasons for both.

I would get a purse! Because I have a shoe addiction that I constantly feed anyway. The fab purse would be a bigger treat for myself!

I buy shoes more often, so I think that a purse would be a bigger treat for myself. I think you can't go wrong with either choice!

a handbag! i would only splurge on a pair of classic shoes like nude/black pumps that i know i would get a ton of use out of. but a purse i'd use much more often!

I would go with the handbag because I haven't been doing anything special where I need new/fancy shoes.

I'd get more use out of a handbag so I say handbag!

I voted handbag! Something you can carry with you every day!

I'm weird, I don't buy things unless I need them. I would get a purse though since you'll get more use out of it.

Oops! misread the OP I would probably go for handbag, since you can use that more often!

I'd go with the bag! After constantly lugging around a diaper bag, it's SUCH a treat when I actually get to carry a nice "grown-up" bag. In fact, just thinking about breaking an old Kate Spade of retirement for an afternoon makes me as excited as getting a new bag used to! I can't even imagine how exciting a new bag would be...

Bag, you can use it all the time and it will last longer.

What a great idea! Wish I thought of that, is it too late at 16 months?
I'd get some super cool boots, so my vote is for shoes.

I splurge on shoes because a comfortable pair of shoes is priceless - you don't want something that will damage your feet or hurt to wear. So I spend a big on my heels! Oh, and boots. I loooove my leather boots and definitely want a new pair.

Definitely the handbag!! As all the others have said, you'll get more use out of it and it will last longer!

Handbag! It has the potential to last a lot longer than a pair of shoes.

I totally beat up my shoes so I never splurge on shoes. I would love to splurge on a beautiful handbag! But I have no idea what I would want! Have fun treating yourself and I can't wait to see pics
