Agree that balance is the key. Living like a monk and saving everything no matter how much you make is almost as silly as spending beyond your means and saving nothing.
Commit first to a savings rate that will avoid the need for a lifestyle cut when you retire (outside of assuming that you'll slow down when you're 80), then beyond that there's nothing foolish about spending today to enjoy today, as long as you're not borrowing to do so.
