5)What bag are you dying to get next?
L.A.M.B. Mandeville in leopard, or really anything in their leopard line, MbyMJ Dr. Q Groovee, and a Bbag in one of their lovely shades of pink or purple. But I doubt I'll be getting anything (unless my mom buys it for me) until the spring because I just bought a Betseyville silver large frame satchel (from Marshalls), and I got a MbyMJ Lil Riz hobo for my birthday, so I think I'm done... for now!
 
1) i am 22, and i first got a bag as a gift from my grandpa at around 12
2) black gucci backpack (for travelling)
3) Coach, Chanel, 3 LV, 2 Gucci, Burberry, Chloe
4)matching wallets for most of the bags (excl Chanel and coach), 3 sunglasses, a Chanel necklace, key chain cardholder thingo, shoes, glasses, and i dont remember the rest
5) i feel like i have officially fulfilled my needs, so i dont really have a bag that im desperate to get, but if i had the choice, i would chose the Damier Canvas Trevi PM, just coz i dont have a bag which looks obviously LV. im still waiting for the Chanel red caviar flap, its sooo strikinggg~~

I'm 38 and my mom bought me a coach bag at age 19, but sadly I didn't really consider that a designer bag because I had been pining for an LV or a Gucci since my early teens. My mom bought me my first Gucci at age 20 and I bought my first LV at age 30

Can't remember what style the Gucci was, LV was a speedy

Have sold many, including the speedy and first Gucci. Now have 5 LV's, 3 Gucci's, 1 Ferragamo, 1 YSL

4)How many accessories (wallets..etc)?

I have 4 monogram LV - wallet, checkbook, accessories pouch, agenda

5)What bag are you dying to get next?

Hermes Birkin - I can't believe I'm even considering spending this much on a bag, but my husband keeps telling me to do it!

1. I'm 21 now, will be 22 in march.

I'm not really sure what constitutes as a designer bag.
I personally don't really consider Betsey Johnson to be designer really just because her bags are really affordable , but I know others would really consider her stuff designer. so ive had plenty of her bags since about 19 on

When I was in highschool I used my moms stuff occasionally. When I was 19 I was given my moms vintage LV satchel I don't know what it's called but I love it.

2.


I personally bought myself the balenciaga giant work bag in white with gold hardware last year, feeling guilty to return it for a grey marc jacobs stam bag

3.

2 balenciaga
2 marc jacobs
1 chloe
2 LV (vintage)
1 gryson
bunch of betsey johnson

3 balenciaga wallets
1 chloe
