I have 3 black bags: prada denim, fendi spy, & di camerino pony hair. I have 3 black evening bags...I think. I wear waaaay more brown than black. I agree with the others, you can't have too many if you use them. I'm on the hunt for another black bag as we speak.
 
I love black with gold hw and for the longest time, couldn't find one that I loved! Now, I think I have too many and may let a few go.

1. Botkier Medium Sasha Duffle (lambskin)
2. Botkier Large Bryant Hobo (lambskin)
3. Botkier small Roxy satchel
4. Ferragamo Marisa (lambskin)
5. MJ Stella (?)
6. RM MAB black cat
Clutches and small bags...

10. HH Oryx clutch
11. Kate Spade (name unknown)

toni dear, if you ever get tired of that lovely black med. Sasha (the lambskin version is always on my wishlist), I know of a lovely home for her on the East Coast...:graucho:
 
I only have one and it's the best thing ever to be able to grab a bag and not worry about it going or not going with what I'm wearing. I agree with the people that say that it's only too many if you don't use them; if you can rotate through one hundred black bags then you don't have too many! (You're also my idol! :p)

As for me, I see more black bags in my future... :graucho:
 
Black bags never betray me. (Or even brown bags.) They always manage to work with my outfits. I even carry in summer. Sometimes I get tempted by color bags because some of them look so beautiful. But I often end up not using them. Hey, I'm living in NYC. We love black.
 
4 blacks in my closet: Mulberry Roxanne, Mulberry black cracked Bays clutch, Balenciaga 2009 PT and Dior cannage drawstring - oh, and then I have a black/gold striped Prada :D = 4½ ... Definitely not too many, more like not enough!
 
You have too many if you aren't using them. Otherwise, bring on the black bags baby!!!

I have 6:

3 are working week/day bags: Anya Hindmarch Carker, Bally shoulder hobo, and La Marthe Audrey tote.

2 are evening: black YSL satin Muse clutch and satin YSL cigarette case

1 is travel/carry on: Bally o'night bag.
 
My feeling is you can never have too many black bags. I occasionally go for brown, but always feel more comfortable with a black bag. And one with a shoulder strap!
 
I don't think you can have too many black bags. They are always in fashion. However, I just added a black bag after not having one for years. My only black bag is a Linea Pelle Dylan Zip Tote. All my other bags are brown. I really need to add some color!!
