Our aim in this article is to study the interaction of \textit{boundary layers} and \textit{corner singularities} in the context of singularly perturbed convection-diffusion equations. For the problems under consideration, we determine a simplified form of the corner singularities and show how to use it for the numerical approximation of such problems in the context of variational approximations using the concept of \textit{enriched spaces}.
