My mom complained when I spent too much money on something like clothes, shoes, or bags even though I spent my own money. She rather see big saving account rather than big bag collections and I don't blame here for that. My boyfriend is complaining lately that I want to buy Damier Speedy. But I still plan to buy it anyway but can't tell my mom yet :D

Funny this came up! I mentioned I was returning a bag to a friend and she said, "A bag? What do you mean 'a bag'?" I said, "A purse, you know!" I didn't dare say LV or anything. She said, "How many do you NEED?"

And, I didn't even tell her I planned to exchange, not really return!

OMG, definitely my sister. :rolleyes:

I don't know why she always throws it in my face. Its like its my money and I'm gonna do what I want with it.

*sigh*

My bf as well. He's always making comments, but as long as I have a J-O-B and he is not paying for any of them and I am taking care of my bills he can kiss my bags!

My BF used to really get irritated when I'd carry my designer purse on my shoulder. Now, he's sort of accepted my obsession. So currently, I'd say really no one. :girlsigh:

Nobody!

My husband even told me how cool he thought my new Linea Pelle shoulder clutch thing was the other day!

But, I currently only have about 6 bags, so I guess I have not developed a really obvious addiction yet :)

my mom thinks i am nuts but thankfully she lives too far away so she doesn't know the half of it! my dh is more or less o.k. with it but i avoid talking prices wherever possible. my mil would keel over and die if she knew but she also lives pretty far away. my two ear old dd is totally into it though :)

OMG! My friends! :yucky:I'm so annoyed at them! they're snippy and I'm not even spending thousands on Chanels...yet

My poison is Rebecca Minkoff :heart:, and an occasional LV epi leather. They'll all go on about how they won't spend so much on bags and what a spend-rift I am, but frankly, when they go on diving trips... they spend much more!

They're left with fishy ocean photos/memories, bad skin from polluted sea waters, and I'm left with a tangible soft leather bag I can hug to sleep at nights. So there! :supacool:

My DH is great, in as far as that he NEVER notices what I carry. He is clueless. But a couple of my co-workers really drive me crazy - "Another new bag.....???" That's why I am so happy I found this place - you guys totally understand!
