As far as my collection goes...

People always say that when I talk about my bags or Leyla talks about her Birkin or whatever. But I always defend it by saying that a) most of us here are young professionals working in fashion or in fields very close to it, b ) we make a decent salary and don't have husbands or children to look after, therefore we can afford to spend it on fashion, and c) because we often have close friends who work in fashion, we are often privy to private sales, gifts, etc.

Everyone has their own stupid little hobbies (Beanie Babies, baseball cards, and stamp collecting, for example) which all equate to a lot of wasted money. I guess you could say that this is our way of wasting money. I hope this makes sense and that I don't come off as a fashion airhead.

Indeed.
Most of my friends think I am an idiot for spending money, but at least I have something to show for it. I don't waste it on drink or drugs.
I have designer and non designer bags.
Designer wise I have the Chloe logo shoulderbag, (www.cricketdesignerwear.co.uk)
Dior Punk saddle bag
Dior girly sac shoulder bag
A few Dkny bags
A few Paul Frank bags
A d&g clutch

And many high street bags.

Oh and I do organize my purses. I never use them but I like to put them inside the dustbag and inside its respective boxes (if any). Then I put them in order of brand, size, style, and color.

Ha! Me too! Thought I was the only person to do this!!

 

[princessgem]

I have bought quite a few and then resold them when I have got bored!
I must learn to be loyal to my bags.

A denim Dior purse, yeah. I haven't seen anyone with my kind, though which is kind of odd. Mom's pretty sure it's real, though.

A D&B Tote. I love my tote, I use it for half-days at school.

I also lay claim to my mom's Gucci tote that she doesn't like anymore.

 

[anastazja]

about 120 pieces...

these are most of my bags, i have a bit of everything

but the LV multicolor pochette is fake?

I think this is so true. All of my freinds think it's absolutley ridiclous how much I pay for bags, most of them keep it to themselves, but my one bestest freind is pretty critical about it. But, how much money does he spend on drinks ever weekend? It's not as much as my bags but relitavley I'm sure it's similar. I think my addiction is much healthier though...

 

[suvari]

Why does people look down on me because I buy theese bags? Its my interest. Why cant they look down at people who buys cars, computers, travels too? What is it that make them angels?

ITS double standard!!

Hey.. as long as you can afford it without being indebt, why not?

Thanks! It's 30cm and it's the Clemence leather. My grandmother bought it and gave it to me, so I dont' know exactly how much she paid.
