I am going to aim for a bag-fee 2009! When I went back and counted, here is my '08 damage:
1 Rebecca Minkoff Nikki Hobo
1 Coach Zoe
1 Dooney safari
1 Coach Carly
1 Chanel
1 Prada (sold already)
1 Anya Hindmarch
1 LV epi (gave to my sister)
1 Vera Bradley (sold already)

I might have forgotten some but I don't feel too bad because I also sold about 5 bags this year, so I don't think I have increased my supply too much.
 
I've purchased 6 so far, I'm hoping to add one more before the end of the year.. sigh.

1.LV Suhali LEpanoui
2.LV MC Trouville
3.LV Amarante Bellevue GM
4.LV Damier Azur Hampstead MM
5.LV plum Le Fab
6.LV Watercolor Speedy
 
I've bought 3:
Prada ombre glace zippers bag - on sale
MbyMJ posh punk convertible clutch - bought in NYC at the time the dollar was way down, so I consider this to be a sale price :smile1:
Mulberry Ledbury - not on sale, but not that expensive either

and I also bought a whole bunch of shoes and boots, 2 prada cosmetics bags (one nylon, one leather) and a mulberry wallet :yes: And that's just what I can think of now.

I thought I had bought a lot (which I have!). But I'm not alone in the world. This is what I have bought:

1 Linea Pelle Piper Speedy
1 Coach Legacy Bridget
1 SHIH Abra Satchel Medium
1 Botkier Bryant Hobo
1 Franco Sarto
1 BCBG Maxazria
1 Rachel Nasvik Penelope
1 Silverlake convertible clutch

Not counting one Coach I bought for my daughter and the two I talked my mother into buying.

Those are not premier designers, but very good-quality, good-value, classical bags. I have a couple premier designers on my wishlist, but not in this life, I think (Anya Hindmarch, Chloé Heloise, Marc Jacobs and yet another Botkier - this last one, perhaps).

1. LV Keepall 55 w/ Strap
2. LV Watercolor Speedy 30

I am banning myself from shopping for 45 days. I've made it for the past 14 days already. 31 days left to go. I went to Nordstrom half-year sale on Sunday... I spent 1.5hrs debating whether I should get the Mui Mui bag or not. Yes, I won the victory of overcoming the temptation! Kundo for me!
 
-Maxx New York Shopper
-LP clutch
-Via Spiga hobo
-LP crossbody (intended as a gift but thinking I'll keep it)

I bought my wife a coach, Jimmy Choo Saba and a Jimmy Choo Ramona (2 days ago that she will have for christmas). I really want to get her a Jimmy Choo Mahala but financially I cant do it this year. I guess you have to keep something to work for and look foward to.
 
Joining this forum has literally caused me to go on a handbag shopping spree (well, this is a spree by my standards/budget)...

- Joe's Jeans Round n Round Doctor Satchel
- Gianni Bini Cheyenne Hobo in Navy
- Jalda Lamb Mini Annette in Snow
- Whiting and Davis Metal Mesh Evening Bag in Antique Gold (for mom...but I'll probably borrow hehe)
- Ruza vintage rose pink leather evening bag
- Guess Los Angeles South Beach Satchel in Black ---:confused1: I call this my mystery bag---as it has different features than the standard SB line and is made from leather (otherwise I probably couldn't justify buying a Guess bag)

Technically, if I had bought all these bags at retail value I'd have spend about $1000...but due to my obsessive bargain shopping habits, I'm only out about $266 :nuts:....:faint:...actaully, that's still a lot for me...BUT look how many decent leather bags you can get for under $300!
