Default my obsession
Well, I'm finally going to get around to posting pics of a few pieces from my collection (thank you to everyone who has already done so: your collections are all amazing). I basically purchased all of them within the past year, and I blaim the Chloe Paddington for this gluttony. Although I never did get the paddy (after hearing about the quality issues with the padlocks, I decided against it), when I googled for the paddy, thefashionspot.com forums and the PurseBlog (no forum back then) came up. And since both forums have introduced me to even more lovelies than I could ever imagine! Before this obsession, I only purchased handbags that were $200 and under, mostly from indie designers. I still only purchase handbags based on their design, and quality, but unfortunately for my wallet, I've discovered some gorgeous designer handbags. Sigh... DF thinks I have a serious problem... he's discovered that I receive a steady stream of packages when I was away on business and the doorman mentioned to him that he has me on speed-dial!

Here are pics of my Fendi spys: sequinned, petrol, and green. It's the first bag that I have the same bag, but in different colors.

Next up is my Balenciaga collection: anis city classique, black twiggy, and magenta foldover clutch. Oops, maybe this machine doesn't have any pics of my clutch, but I'll post it later.

Here's a bag that I carried proudly through most of F/W 04: the Oiliy rose handbag. It isn't high end designer, but I think it really represented the embellishment trends of F/W 04 in a very stylish way. And I got a TON of compliments on it.
