A cute pair of shoes will always brighten my day. You don't have to spend a fortune, either; when it comes to colorful pick-me-ups you can buy any time, there are lots of places where you can buy shoes on the cheap. Here's one, Payless is another; heck, I've even been known to pick up a pair at Target. It doesn't matter whether they're heels or sandals or sneakers, either, as long as they make you feel good.

Bright colors make me feel better than anything else, and bags always look nice in bright colors. Right now I carry a hot pink bag with a gorgeous fleur de lis motif that the Better Half bought me for Christmas, and every time I look at it, it makes me smile. If you're feeling down, pick out a bag you might not normally buy, something bold and dazzling.

Not all of the colorful pick-me-ups you can buy any time are wearable. This one will do more than pick you up – it will lift you up. Pick out a colorful journal in which you can jot down your thoughts, because then you'll get a pick-me-up every time you actually pick it up!

New makeup almost always makes me feel great. I like to buy eyeshadow, especially, because you can get away with crazy colors. Again, pick out something you might not normally wear, and then try it out when you go out on the town. There's no harm in trying something new.

Sometimes funny, goofy, or uncharacteristic things function as the best pick-me-ups. A pair of bright, bold, cool looking sunglasses can do wonders for you. Once again, you can buy a pair that aren't exactly your style but that you really like. Dare to be different!

A lot of the colorful pick-me-ups you can buy do have to do with wearable things and accessories, though. For instance, try buying a cool belt, maybe with a funky buckle. Do pick out something you can wear, though, even if you only do so when you want to be in a happy-go-lucky kind of mood.

Finally, jewelry always picks me up, even if I'm just buying bangle bracelets or a colorful, clunky necklace. You can get a ring, some earrings, or anything you want, as long as it makes you smile. That's always what counts the most.

There are tons of other colorful pick-me-ups you can buy any time, these are just a few of them. I know they always make me feel better. What do you buy when you're indulging in some retail therapy to pick up your spirits?
