The thing I NEVER want to get into, is having purses sit unused in my closet - "museum pieces" I call them.
I want all my purses in regular rotation, a rotation for me is 2 weeks. I don't change purses by outfit or anything, I just carry one for 2 weeks then switch it out.
I would like to get three 2 week rotations in every year, so I need to know that every purse I have will get at least a 6 week exposure (which still doesn't seem like enough at all).
So based on that formula, that means at any given time I should have no more than 8 or 9 purses in my collection.
Right now I am at 8 and I love each of them dearly. I started collecting Coach last July and have painstakingly chosen each one of them.
Now I feel like I have one more to add and then I have to stop or else the rotation has to go down.
I'm not talking about wristlets and swingpacks which may get taken out for a weekend or evening, I'm talking more about the purses I carry every day.
So that kind of makes me sad. I know Coach always has a ton of gorgeous stuff, but until I'm ready to start letting go of what I have, I don't want to just add to the collection and start piling the purses up in my closet in their dust bags.
I guess I'm too practical.
Anyway, just wanted to share. Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
