I have really mixed feelings about today. I made my final handbag purchase. I have a collection of approx 23 premier designer bags and I have reached a point where by I have a bag to go with everything in my wardrobe and so I don't feel im justified in purchasing anything else. If I was to purchase more bags just because I liked them I don't feel if be able to do them justice as they wouldn't be able to be used as often as I'd like them to be.

I'm glad I have a collection I love but I'm also sad that I won't be adding to it anytime soon. Not spending money on bags will help me save for other more important things such as luxury holidays abroad and that should please me; It just doesn't excite me in the way purchasing a new bag does! X

You're allowed to change your mind in time, and you may decide to sell some that aren't working for you when and if something new catches your eye.:graucho:

Wallets, key cases, scarves, jewelry, shoes...I could think of so many things to move on to! :D
It's a great thing you have your perfect set of bags together, must be a nice feeling! I'm still looking for the perfect large tote and crossbody bag. I've managed to get rid of many bags I don't use or don't love anymore, now it's only a question of finding the perfect duo to complete the collection...and don't worry, traveling is just about ALWAYS the best thing you can put your money into. You get memories, experiences, photos of you and your bags in exotic places - certainly worth investing in!

I feel the exact same way right now. I have +-20 designer handbags and keep wanting new ones but I just don't get to enjoy my collection and use them as often as I want if I keep buy new ones. So I decided to stick to what I have and get more use out of them since I still love every single one.. And if I really really want another one I will sell one of my bags if it's worth it :)

You must be firmer than I am then! When I'm at 18, I thought that was the last one, and bam a new design came that became my holy grail, and now I'm over 30 :sweatdrop:. Have fun enjoying the other things in life!

Saving to travel abroad is an awesome thing to do and you can bring your lovelies with you. Maybe you can "trade" bags. Let's say you find another clutch that's goes even more perfectly with the one you already have you then sell off the older one for the newer one? I do love scarves. :-)
