i now have 21 couture handbags in my collection, as i have located & bought the chloe hampton handle & also bought a larg gucci shouler bag from the gucci outlet in NJ last week. it's basic, but perfect for traveling (& it's gucci)!

next i'll add the LV damier azur galliera pm to my handbag collection (it's absolutely gorgeous!).

i also now have a missoni scarf. forgot to mention that i already had the following accessories: a LV iphone case, a gucci make-up bag, a burberry ipod holder & a tiffany business card holder, a pair of chanel sunglasse, a pair of versace sunglasses (i also have a pair of burberry pajamas, not sure if that counts under accessories or not). my dog has a burberry sweater.

next i'll add the LV monogram canvas wapity case to my accessories collection and use it as a camera case for my digital camera.

i now have 22 high-end designer handbags in my collection, as i've added the LV damier azur galliera pm to my handbag collection (contemplated on buying the gm, but didn't like it because thought it was too large). bought her yesterday & she is gorgeous! i even bought the cutest LV charm to go with her. this is the perfect spring/summer handbag!

not sure what i'll buy next. maybe the LV grafitti (that comes out 2/2) or a LV hampstead, or a LV epi in ivory. oh....i'm not sure. it will probably be a while before i purchase another.

I don't count my two Liz Claiborne's from the mid 90's because I got them at outlet with my employee discount and they did not give me the fine bag bug so...

1) I am 38 and I was 34 when I fell in love with a friends bag and HAD to have it.

2) it was the Michael Kors O.C. east/west flap bag

3) 9 so far (if I don't count aforementioned L.C.'s)

4) 4 Coach wristlets,1 wallet & 2 charms (not even going to begin to count shades)

5) I have no idea what year or style name or even cost but it is a Chanel black leather fairly large tote/hobo with silver chains embedded in the sides up into the strap. (belonged to a former client) If anybody knows this bag please name it.

I'm 27 yrs old. I bought my first bag when I was 17.

2)And what was it?

It was a Prada leather tote.

3)How many purses do you have in your collection?

I have around 50+ high-end designer bags (only Chanel, LV, Fendi, Prada, Dior & Gucci). I'm starting to slow down on buying LV bags though. I guess I'm just over LV. I bought almost every bag LV & Dior made. Now, I'm going to try other brands like Jimmy Choo or Valentino.

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

100+. I have matching wallet, coin purse, planner for every bag.

5)What bag are you dying to get next?

Hermes Birkin or Kelly bag. Almost bought 1 in Hawaii a few months ago but they didn't have the color I want. Urrggg...
