Aside from the vanity, we need a new shower head for it has accumulated enough lime scale residue in the shower holes to cover the whole of Japan.  Bathroom tiles have got to go.  I would love a darker shade of tiles this time around and much bigger, too.  It’s so hard to clean smaller tiles and the gaps between.  Do you know what I mean?  Of course, lighting is crucial too.  I think the range of modern vanity lighting available today would definitely help set the mood for longer baths and showers and make the bathroom look more upscale.  Aside from the bathroom vanity lighting, a bigger toilet is essential especially the ones which you can control the water flush.  And please, I prefer the ones with a bidet included.  I hope my mom remembers all this when she goes accessory shopping during the renovation.

For vintage treats, Manchester and Leeds are two of the country’s most popular shopping destinations. Packed with quirky stores selling clothing and accessories from a range of eras, there’s even a choice of vintage fashion fairs to visit. These touring fairs are a great way to find unique vintage gifts that nobody else will have, whether it’s a 50s floral frock or a classic set of pearls.

If you’re keen to get out and about on the high street in search of that ideal birthday gift, there’s a range of great shopping centres across the country. In the south of the country, the Bluewater Centre in Kent and the Westfield centre in West London are packed with major department stores and high street favourites offering heaps of gift inspiration.

For Midlanders, the Bull Ring centre in Birmingham is a popular shopping choice, with plenty of tempting high-end shops to browse. Up in Manchester, the Trafford Centre remains one of the top indoor shopping spaces with its range of stylish boutiques, and – if you’re stuck for ideas – you can always opt for a Trafford Centre gift card, which will be accepted at most of the centre’s 200 stores and eateries.

Alternatively, if you’re buying for a designer clothing fanatic, pay a visit to one of the many outlet villages situated across the UK: Cheshire Oaks in the north and Bicester Village in Oxfordshire are two of the most famous, both offering a great range of high-end products at vastly discounted prices.

Wherever you take your shopping trip, a credit card or charge card is essential if you want to avoid carrying around large sums of cash. With the Platinum Card charge card from American Express, you can also earn rewards points on virtually everything you buy, which can then be redeemed in exchange for a special treat for yourself – you’ve earned it!

Anyway, happy weekend to you all. See you back here on Monday.
