I bought my first Michael Kors 2 years ago, an Astor Hobo in Luggage. I have received so many compliments on this bag!

My next purchase (about 9-12 months after the first bag above) was the MK Gansevoort Rouched Tote, black leather with gold hardware. This is a workhorse of a bag!

Now, here's where it gets out of control! The following bags have all been purchased since November 2010!!!! I can say that every MK bag I have was purchased on sale!

Bought this Brown Astor Studded Satchel in November:

Purchased this Colette shoulderbag for myself for Christmas. Love the Gunmetal leather as it matches everything!

Beautiful! I am just getting into MK, i never paid them too much attention before, but now i'm loving them. Where do you get the best deals and sales on them? I love the astor studded satchel, gorgeous!

I went to Nordstrom Rack over the holiday also, haven't been there in quite a while. Lo and behold, they had several MK bags! I saw this Layton bag and thought the color was beautiful and something different besides blacks and browns. Here's my Layton bag in Oassis!

While I was waiting in line (and a very long line it was), I was checking out the wallets and found these two Rebecca Minkoff pouches! I've always wanted an RM pouch. So I brought home the Splurge pouch and the Trustfund pouch.

Now for the last 2 bags! First, I bought a Hamilton when they first came out, but we weren't aware that they were supposed to slouch and I was really worried about it, so I returned it. Well, I could never get that bag out of my head! So I went for the large Hamilton in Luggage! I really loved the black w/silver hardware, but I think Luggage is such a neutral color and will especially be great for spring/summer too!

Someone posted in the MK deals thread that the Erin satchel was on sale at Macys.com. So of course, I had to check it out, it was sold out on line. I've seen this bag IRL and the leather is so, so soft! I called one of my local Macys but they only had Barley and Yellow (I was looking for black). The next day I was at the other local Macys and they had it in Black! It was ringing up full price and I asked why because it was on sale at Macys.com. So I showed her the picutre and price via my iPhone (gotta love walking around with the internet in your pocket!) and she matched the price! I also had $60 in gift cards so I brought it home for around $170 out of pocket! I haven't even tried my stuff in it yet, I'm hopeing it will work out just fine. Oh yeah, after I got home, I realized that mine has a zip closure! Bonus!!!!

Thanks! I got the Astor studded satchel at Macys - it was on sale and I had a 20% coupon! I've bought from the MK Boutique (although I'm not thrilled with their return policy), Macys and 1 bag (Colette) came from eBay new with tags. I find Macys is the best place, especially when I have a coupon!

Nice collection! We are bag twins, I have the Layton and Colette as well!!

I had a couple of LV's but really were afraid to carry them so I sold them and use my MK's! I love how durable they are and the price point is fantastic!

Thank you ladies!
I just tried my stuff in the Erin bag and it takes on a totally different look with your things inside. It makes it look taller, but fat at the bottom. When it set it down, it totally puddles. Not sure I can handle my stuff falling over in the bottom. I ordered a purse organizer from QVC, I may wait for that to arrive before making a final decision.

What a beautiful collection! I love all the colors and styles - perfect for every occasion! I, too, have a number of other bags from other designers, but I am just infatuated with MK right now.

Thank you. I'm kinda over Coach right now, things show up at the outlet way too fast and most of the bags I like are $700 which I'm not willing to spend on a single Coach bag.
I'm really loving MK. I think he makes great handbags with beautiful detailing and the leather is just fabulous!!!
I have the Layton all ready to carry tomorrow. I love the color, it's something really different considering I have most black/brown bags.
