I just finished purging my handbag collection and right now have six Baggallinis, three Dooneys, and six Vera Bradleys. That's 15 altogether, but only seven of those are actually used as everyday purses. The others are for travel and storage (jewelry, paperwork, etc.).


It wasn't so long ago that one purse at a time was normal for me, but I just can't keep myself down on the farm now that I've seen Pareee. Smiley Very Happy it's nice to have a few to choose from.




@BrandNewBag   LOL! I totally get that reference and I'm right there with you, sister!

Re: How many purses do you own?

I own one crossbody that I use year-round.  I like the organization and have no reason to change bags.  For me a purse is utilitarian. It does what I need it to do.  When it wears out, I will buy a new one.

Re: How many purses do you own?

I own 6 purses, which is about 7 too many for me. I HATE carrying a purse, but it seems like a necessity most days.

 

I have a couple of Coach totes, one black and one navy, that I use when I travel.

 

The other 4 are all Brahmin bags. Camera bags in black and pecan. A slightly larger hobo type bag in pecan, and a floral print on a cream background hobo that I use in the summer. 

 

I figure that if I have to carry one, it's a least going to be something decent looking.

Re: How many purses do you own?

Where do you sell yours? I've never had any luck getting more than $5 for name brand bags.

I have a bag in each of the normal colors- blk, Barn, red, cordovan, cream, navy, and blk patent. I may have two in the dressy colors, one large one small for dressy occasions. I have a few novelty bags as well. I'd say I have 20 all together.

Never underestimate the power of kindness.

I have two purses, a light and a dark. I bought them at JCP. I will replace them when they fall apart

So many that I gifted my daughter with some of my coach and Dooney purses to make room for new, She was thrilled as they were very gently used.
