Hello!

Im 22 years old, turning 23 soon. Im graduating in June and starting grad school in Aug. My bf doest understand why i want the same style/same brand in different colors but he helps out funding my bags here n there , which is really nice. My sisters said im crazy but I dont really care, they just dont understand! I love going on here becuase I feel "normal" when im on tpf lol I enjoy reading about people with similar obsessions like mine

Hi everyone! Glad to see other younger ladies here. I'm 21, graduating in June and starting my job as a trader/research analyst at an investment bank in late June. Hopefully bonuses will come back into season for bankers and I'll be able to buy a few more Bals (I have 2 now )

Up until last June I was a one bag a year max girl, and the most expensive bag I had ever owned was a $175 black hobo from the coach outlet.... how far I've come since then. In addition to Balenciaga, I am gaga over Rebecca Minkoff, and have also been looking at Miu Miu and YSL. What other brands do you love?
I also love Rebecca Minkoff. Marc Jacobs will always hold a place in my heart although since my bals I haven't been carrying MJ as much...still can't get the courage to get rid of them though.

Hi ladies! Glad this thread exists! I'm 22 and I've been working as a tax consultant for the past 2 years. I've always loved designer handbags but the thought of splurging heaps of money in one go used to put me off. But recently I've decided "why not buy the B-bag that i've been drooling for?" besides, I've been working hard and I deserve a reward, haha, and it's not like I never save my money :)

I only have 1 friend and 1 acquaintance who understands designer bag obsessions, but now I've got you guys too, haha!

Hi there,
I'm also gonna work for family business after graduation and internship,
I came from a family of veterinarians both my parents and even my grandfather are all vets. My parents now own several vet hospitals.
I can't wait to work full time, I'm so tired of being a student all my life!

Just want to wish you all the luck with your business.

It's nice to meet all of you here on tPF, I tend to hide my addiction of bags from my co-workers and friends, some of them judge me for purchasing expensive bags that are made of animal skin....can you believe that?

I'm 22. I am currently studying for my second degree. Not married but i do have a boyfriend who understands my obsession with anything designer (he rather pays for the bag that i want rather than hear me nag about it all the time). I have a supportive family who understand my addiction too, especially my mum. I borrow her YSL and Chanel, she borrows my Dior and Balenciagas. so happy happy times!!=o)

Besides Bal, I also love Chanel, Dior, Chloé and Gucci.

Oh, and I'm also very much into shoes right now. I'm a big fan of CL (I have a small collection of 3 pairs), YSL and Gucci shoes.

I'm 24, a print designer/art director in the dc area, working for 3 years now after getting my BFA, I am actually very new to balenciaga. my first "expensive" bag was a classic black chanel, and it moved on to prada, then ysl, and now I have bought 3 bbags in the past month-I know it's not that popular on here but i am in love with the covered giant hw. Definitely have to cut that out. No one I know gets paying over 1k for a handbag :( which is why I come here :)

I'm 24 and will soon purchase a bal work bag. I graduated almost 2 years ago and I work in IT for a major bank in Toronto. My bf kinda sorta understands and I appreciate that... Although no one else quite understands my infatuation with Bal bags!

I barely make the cut, I'm 29, from OK and work in the oil and gas industry as a Landman. Basically I negotiate the drilling of natural gas wells. Love bbags, and have an automne flat clutch on the way!

I am a 25 year old registered nurse. I got my BSN in 2006 and I have been working as a labor and delivery and postpartum nurse since 2006. I am currently studying for my RNC. I want to go back for my masters someday but I am not sure what I want to get it in so thats why I am not in school yet. I still live at home with mom. Thats how I am able to get my bags. When I move out on my own, I probably won't be able to get as many bags.
