How do your bags make you feel?

Happy ... excited ... guilty ... hope no one notices how many I have ... hope no one knows how much I spent on them ... but totally in love with them. Like someone else said, like a guy feels about a car - but I feel that way about my car And my bags!
Put together ... stylish. Did I say happy?
And hoping no one sees me and my bag as I'm getting out of my car. That's like a double-whammy guilt feeling (if that makes any sense to someone).

This pic sums it up for me:

Absolutely gorgeous! I know that gult feeling allllll too well.
 
I feel guilty for like a week... and then I feel proud carrying around my bags! I work hard so it's nice to see the result of my hard work on my arm! I also feel savvy because I've gotten great deals on every designer purse I own :o).

And I agree -- also put together!
 
When I carry a good bag, I feel pulled together, especially when I get a real great price on a handbag such as my D&B Janine flower satchel. I purchased this lovely bag 1-1/2 years ago on sale for 132.00 it is still currently being sold on QVC for 204.00 an is on trend with the structure an the print.
 
Different for different bags..., for example:
- chic and classic when I just carry my LV pochette mono
- cool when I carry my speedy B DE 30
- happy when I carry my pastel leather new G line Tods
- stylish when I carry my MK Hamilton in luggage

Well.. You get the point.... Maybe I have split personalities? :p
 
My handbags make me feel fantastic, special, put together, happy and lucky. Not everyone can afford these wonderful pieces of art that I carry every single day.

I, also have given up buying super expensive clothes. Now, all my hard work saving up for the special item goes straight to a handbag or SLG.

They also comfort me. I have fallen in love with larger handbags as I've aged so I can carry anything and everything that I may need during my day. This in and of itself brings me great joy.

I'm a very happy girl and I think that's the whole point. :cloud9:
 
Ahhh i love reading the replies on here. I haven't bought a new bag for 3 months & I still love the feeling that I get when I wear a bag that I've not worn for a while. They make me feel special & seeing as I have put on weight since having my son I don't feel pretty in clothing. I hate having to purchase new clothing & I'm really conscious of what I'm wearing a lot of the time. A nice handbag helps detract from my insecurities & gives me a confidence boost X
 
Happy! But I realised I have an addiction :( I thought I would be done with Buying bags after buying 4 Chanel bags this year but now I am thinking of H.

I have wanted a career change & refused to take job offers from my previous industry.

My bag addiction has to stop!! I am not going to buy anymore bags till I get my career change!
