If you actually had all the money you needed to buy whatever bags you wanted, would you eventually have all the bags you want and want no more? Is ther an endpoint to bag obsession?
And I wonder if we would really eventually actually be happy with our collections if we could have anything. Or would we still want more more more? If you sat down and made a list of all the bags you wanted, how long would that list be and how fast does it grow? It seems like if you end up with 50 bags or something, you'd start to lose track and have very similar bags. And at that point, speaking as an average person, you wouldn't even be able to wear all of them out - people would judge you for having 50 bags! Isn't that also a constraint on how much and what we actually buy? That others will think certain things... Maybe if you could afford that, then you wouldn't care either way. But I think you would.
Are we all trying to achieve our "perfect" collections or is it something else that drives our bag lust?? Sometimes when a bag gets stuck in my head, I wonder if it's really that I want that bag so much or is what I really want to be able to afford that bag...
A huge part of bag lust seems to hinge on price comparison and figuring out how to afford them, so if that was no issue, would the buying process be less exciting / painful? So in that sense would have enough money be a bad thing?
