80 is a strange number to aim at - why not go for the whole 100
I'm taking the baby steps. I'll have to sneak up on the 3 digit mark. I don't think I'm brave enough to set a 3 digit handbag goal at this point.

Luckily for me my boyfriend lets me have the spare bedroom of our house to use as I want. Seriously not only is the closet full, but I actually have a couch where I put the rest. Now if we had kids I'b be in trouble. The house is old for Florida (built in 1923) so you know how much closet space they have....LOL
finzup has a boutique and Ms. Liz has a department store! Ladies, I am in awe. I guess the next natural line of questioning is where the heck do you keep all of those bags!?
BTW - I use to hide my bags from my hubby, but he's become too smart. The other day he got home and I was upstairs so I hollered at him to bring me the cute little turquoise bag on the table. He comes upstairs and says, "Here's your clutch." "No wait, it's a wristlet!" Then he took the strap off and said, "Now it's a clutch!!" He was so proud of himself and all I could think is "...good golly, pretty soon he will be able to tell a Chanel from a plastic sack." My days of handbag subterfuge are coming to an end.
I would say about 4 or 5 major designers. I have some names not familiar, here from my travels to Spain, France and Italy. I'm a sucker for nice leather.
I need to thin the herd, but when herd thinning consists of pulling them all out and trying them on, I usually don't get very far.....LOL
Oh...and I didn't pick the number...it just picked me.....I honestly thought I had around 50. I was floored myself.

So true Jenova....I have 7 Kooba Lucy's that I bought during the Kooba rage and they all lie flat, so it's easy to pack a few colors and still travel light.
The thing about the BE's, except form my SM's...is I always am so worried about crushing them during trips.

I do want to see pictures of your cobalt LMMidi 
and would love to see the Sasha. Do you mean the chocolate color or is this a new color? I have a few Sasha'a. One is a large pudding, and there is a new color that is quite close to it. Oops...sorry wrong forum.
Can't wait to see your pics.

LOL I "own" the spare bedroom in my house to ... I really do need to declutter. Besides purses, I have shoes, clothes, scarves, etc.. just too much!

New spring colour - cocoa (similar to pudding I think).
I know how you feel:ninja:... I have no hubby to peruse my receipts, but sometimes i get paranoid as what to my family would think if i suddently died :devil:and they found a) my stash of secret bags:weird: b) a pile of custom tax receiptsc) my CCs' statements
- The ladies in your family would probably fight over who gets to inherit your collection! 
No, they like bags, but not so expensive... I am already writing a living will as to what to do with my bags... My daugher has already asked to inherit my choco baby paddinton and i have a few friends here that would love to get other bags... I will also state which bags should be sold in order to pay off my CC debt... Sorry for being so gloomy, but a good friend of mine died of cancer and i am rethinking a few things....
At one point, I had about 20 Coach bags, a bal city, a Cole Haan bucket bag, a couple of clutches and tons of accessories. Then I had fewer Coach, but was up to 7 bals and a bal cp along with the clutches, accessories and cole haan. I freaked - for me, that's just too much $ tied up in bags. So I'm down to 3 bbags, a bal MU, my Cole Haan, a couple of clutches, a miu miu and my first BE which is on the way and only accesories I use on a daily basis. I'm actually happy to have downsized, though I will be honest and say if I had the space, and more importantly, the moolah for it, I would have a huge collection!
Ha ha ha! For the deals they had I can't blame you!! I had a few in my bag and had to keep clicking off the website before I finally restrained the finger.
I swear, I shouldn't look at handbag websites without taking a Valium. I feel my heart rate speed up and just want everything...more more!
Great haul rachaelmb!
