When you're having a downer of a day, turning to chocolate or a nice cup of tea are usually the way to go. But I find popping into a Cath Kidston store is an equally effective pick-me-upper. The pretty vintage floral prints just have a way of making life seem more bearable - the colours and the rosy cheeriness make me feel like a little girl in a candy store, surrounded by delectable sweets.
Obviously, if you had a bookbag or Cath Kidston bedroom furnishings you could be surrounded by these pretty prints every day. But I like the idea of this little coin purse, which will pop out at you from the depths of your handbag in amongst all the junk and scrunched up receipts, giving you a sweet little reminder of all that is pretty. At just £6 from ASOS, it's a pick-me-upperer of the best kind!
