Any of you guys really good with controlling the spending on yourself all the time and instead doing it to others who mean a lot to you in life?

Not to sound judgemental but unless you have an income level to pay cash for any of the things you described above then you have no business buying them.
Seriously, a $750 cell phone? There is no way you can justify that in any way. Hell, you can get a free cell phone just by signing a service contract. $400 for glasses when you just want new ones? Time to prioritise your spending a bit. $400 skirt? You are just paying for the name, you know, right?
Emotional spending is probably one of the worst things you can do financially. It's one of those things where if you don't keep it in check could lead to shopping addicition.
