My first designer bag was in High School when my ex worked at Gucci. I was 15 and got a black monogram GG bag. I still have it and had it repaired at the Gucci store once because one of the handles broke. I used that bag every day and wore it out! But I still have it! I haven't used it since I graduated HS in 2000. It's considered super old school! From that experience I never wanted to sport a fake bag because if your authentic bag breaks or gets worn out you could take it back to the store and they'll repair it for you. In my case they repaired it for free but it depends on the severity! Plus, I think its cheesy sporting a fake bag in my opinion. You can't resell it later and it would be dishonest to do so.

1)How old are you and when did you get your first designer bag?
I'm 35 and I got it when I was 9 years old. I did not ask for it. My Dad just decided "it was time". I still remember the day we got it like it was yesterday.

2)And what was it?

LV shoulder bag (long strapped with a big flap that had a gold horseshoe shaped buckle at the end). A few years ago, I had to have the strap changed due to wear. I still have it and hope my daughters will want to keep it. :-)

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

I've lost track but I'm guessing more than 30.

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

Probably 8. I'm not big on accessories. I use them to death before I buy a new one.

5)What bag are you dying to get next? A BV Cabat or another Birkin.

23 & 21
Had to save up for it myself, and when it was time, I actually snagged a really good deal for it too (peak of the bag's popularity as well)

2)And what was it?
Coach Parchment Sabrina

3)How many purses do you have in your collection?
I'm still in the midst of purging but 27. Only 3 are remotely designer though: Coach, Miss Sixty, and a pending MbyMJ. The rest of them are mainly brand name but not designer (Puma, Harajuku Lovers, tokidoki, L.A.M.B. for lesportsac, adidas, matt & nat, etc)

4)How many accessories (wallets..etc)?
5 designer (prada, 2 coach, 1 juicy, 1 bcbg), 5 non-designer

5)What bag are you dying to get next?
You know what? Surprisingly, none. Well...MAYBE a Gucci Icon Bit Medium shoulder bag in either black or that oil spill patent (don't know official name), but I wouldn't say I'm dying to get it...
