I am in the same scenario, my spouse earns slightly more than me but he pays for most of the household expenditure.
The wife (me) pays for tuition, enrichment and electricity/
pub bills which is very little monthly. I estimate less than $300 a month, I don't even bother keeping track as it does not affect my spending.
Any holidays we have, we tried to split 50/50 or 40/60, me 40
I do splurge on branded bags and shoes, but seldom or never buy at retail. The bags and shoes I buy are often sold off after I tire of them. I do feel guilty my spouse pays for most of the expenses, but I brush it off since his parents and his childhood was in a similiar situation. His father is the sole breadwinner of the family.
Spouse annual - 120k
My annual - 110k
I may commit to more fixed expenses in the near future
