15 Highstreet splurges under €100 just in time for payday

Mentally, we've already spent the money.

Is it just me or has August been an expensive month? Our final chance to drink in the last of the summer wine, I’ve pretty much used that as an excuse to justify my spending habits over the past few weeks… but I’m very, very happy that payday is imminent, because beans for dinner has not been fun.

A quick browse through the new-in sections of our favourite highstreet shops will tell you that summer is all but over though. Warm neutrals, charcoals and chocolate browns dominate the colour palette with cashmere, leather and thick Aran knits also reemerging for autumn. Spend your money wisely and your purchases will get you (and your winter wardrobe) far.
