The first IT bag I fell in love with was the Mulberry Roxanne...

The first bag with a "name" I ever bought was a little black Liz Claibourne clutch... I'm not even sure if Liz Claibourne constitutes "designer" or not but I loved that bag - I was 18 and had just got my first job. I'm sure it was around £50 which was a lot for me back in 1994. I wish I knew what happened to it *sigh*

I've been a Mulberry girl for a long, long time and last year bought my first LV and just before Christmas I got my first Chanel..... I've come a long way since Liz :)

1)How old are you and when did you get your first designer bag?
I am 22, my first designer bag was given to me when I was 13.

2)And what was it?
It was a vintage Louis Vuitton Monogram Canvas Pochette Bordeaux Flap Bag given to me by a family friend of mine that was going to cosign/donate it.

3)How many purses do you have in your collection?
I recently have ridded of most (close to all) of my none leather/none brand handbags. I found that I was no longer using them considering I would always gravitate towards others. Right now my collection consists of around 8 bags.

4)How many accessories (wallets..etc)?
If this refers to small leathered goods than not any/many. I own a leather wallet from Barneys right now that I am looking to replace with an Alexander Wang.

5)What bag are you dying to get next?
My dream wish lists of bags is quite long and is definitely topped off with a 35cm black Birkin :loveeyes: however on the more realistic side I'd love to get my hands on a Alexander Wang Rockie and a Givenchy medium Pandora in the near future. In the later future I would love to add a Chanel Le Boy Flap Bag.

1)how old are you and when did you get your first designer bag?

I'm 25, i was 24 when i bought my first designer bag.

I bought it as a birthday present to myself. I still remember that feeling of having something so luxurious in my hands for the first time and i still feel it every time I pic one of my handbags up. I didn't know that it would result in me selling all of my other non designer bags so i could store more luxury. And the quality... i sometimes look at my bags and feel butterflies. I care for them and i sometimes talk to them. I really love them.


2)And what was it?

Marc by Marc Jacobs - Baby Groove in the color cement


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

9 bags
4 MBMJ
3 Mulberry (safe to say that Mulberry is my favorite brand)
1 Miu Miu
1 See By Cholé


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

1 Mulberry wallet


5)What bag are you dying to get next?

I'm looking to buy a balenciag a next but i always have an eye open for Mulberry, MBMJ and Miu Miu.
