About 40. Of that, only about 5-6 are really high-end (Burberry, Prada, LV), the rest are mid-range (Be&D, Bulga, LOTS of Coach, Kate Spade, etc.). I would love to have more high-end bags, but I get side-tracked by the cute, functional mid-priced stuff, and don't have the blasted self-control to wait for the more expensive bags & save my $$! UGH!
I'm going to say 11 
.....
not counting a JCrew straw tote, LV Keepall 55 (isn't this luggage?) and a Coach wristlet

Way too many. I probably need to pare down, but I find it difficult to part with them. Over 60 bags.
31 Marc Jacobs, 3 Chloe, 14 L.A.M.B. and the rest are a mix of Isabella Fiore, Furla, Betsey Johnson, Cyhthia Rowley, Ellen Tracy, Bulga and various others.

Hi Ladies
Don't know about you, but I get on a real guilt trip when I own too many bags. I live by the motto of one in, one out. I currently have four bags that I am using all the time, not including a LV and chloe that I don't use, but can't bear to part with and two evening bags.
I am currently tempted to buy two more which will retail at about £700 for both, but with clothing aswell this seems like a lot of ££ for one season! I have been obsessing about them and I hate it!!! HOW MANY BAGS IS TOO MANY, REALISTICALLY!!

27 and yes, I use them all! (I'm including tokidoki backpacks, Timbuk2 gym bags, etc.)
I have come to the conclusion that while I am very organized, thorough, and even unsentimental about many things, my bag collection not one of them. I have come to terms with it. I can consign or donate everything but the DH, kids, and the bags LOL!
To answer your question: "How many is too many bags?" If you are feeling guilty, uncomfortable, or unhappy about your current number of bags - that's when it's too many....I make concessions in other areas of my life (no make-up - seriously, I buy it every 10 years for "special occasions", barely any shoes, and no expensive hobbies/habits) to make me feel okay about my collection. DH teases me, but he supports me since he knows I make good choices. Although lately he's raised an eyebrow about the JCrew thing...

Yikes. Maybe I am like Becky Bloomwood. Is it just coincidence that I'm enamored with the 'shopaholic' books
