My DH will never understand why i buy LVs. He had a fit when i came home with a brand new mono speedy 35, bought with my own overtime check!!! I worked my butt off that week and felt like i deserved a new bag. I hate my job but it pays well. I didn't ask him to buy it for me, it didn't come out of our savings or tax refund nor i used a credit card. I don't tell my mom either because she always takes his side. So i envy you lucky ladies!!!

It doesn't upset him but he doesn't quite get it, but he knows he can't say much as we had to have an extra closet fitted for his trainer/sneaker collection, he entertained my habit xmas and for our Anni so he supports it I guess!

My DH is OK with my LV habit just as long as it doesn't go on the credit card. If I save up or sell some unwanted bags for a new purchase he's even happier. I do get an LV for our anniversary since he knows that's what I want.

Here's the way I explained my pricey purse habit to my boyfriend:

"You know those electronic gadgets and remote helicopter and airplanes you and your friends buy? To me, the price you pay is crazy for those, but somehow it makes sense to you. That's what purses are to me, though."

And when I gave him that comparison, it clicked and now he kind of understands lol.

My husband to be is understanding of my bag habit, as long as it doesn't get out of control. He bought me a Balenciaga last year for my birthday (which then had to be returned- long story) and he accompanied me on my LV purchasing trip a few weeks back. He knows I've got my eye on some other goodies too and he's cool with that, as long as I pay my way with the stuff we need to buy obviously, and our wedding.

my BF knows that I have a big obsession with high end designers...especially handbags. he even bought me a few handbags. he knows that I'm expensive and accepts that. along with that...he also has expensive taste in high end designers. so we're on the same float. as long as we know we can both afford it and we're not in debt, we're fine.

If it does, he has never said! I'm basically a SAHM (I work 1 day a week, we own our own businesses) so when we go to LV, he usually tells me how much I can spend. I'm cool with it because he is very generous! Like Thursday I didn't even plan to go into LV and he said let's go you can buy something small! who am I to argue? Lol

It makes mine angry when he thinks about how many bags I have and what theyre worth. He doesnt say much but occasionally he will rant. Thing is if I buy one and go to sell another he wont let me sell because he knows I love them all, yet at the same time hes angry about the cost... Hes not completely against it but at the same time he doesnt encourage!

I have to say, I am very very lucky :cloud9: . DH is just as bad as I am. He likes to go and buy most of my bags and shoes for me. Last year, I fell in love with the ST TROPEZ Neverfull and he went to ST TROPEZ ( there and back in a day, we live in Barcelona, Spain ) just to get me the bag !!! He is starting to get the bug now with wallets, LOL !!!!
