I have 3 waves that started my purse obsession.
When I was young, I am already into pricey handbags (I am not a millenial where Gucci are the definition of an expensive bag). My mom would splurge me some “pricey” bags to stand out and I am proud of it. It continued all the way to college until I started working.
When I started working, I started noticing fashion among colleagues and that’s how I got into designer purses... Then, all the love died down when I got my Chanel Bags (my priced possessions when I was 23) stolen..
Years passed until 2018, when I gave birth to my late son. My husband knows that the LV Speedy MC Blanc is my HG bag so to keep my spirits up, he gifted me one as a push present. Til now, still into bags!

Dooney & Bourke Small Lucy in Chestnut Florentine leather. The smell rising from the vachetta leather was intoxicating and the patina that developed sealed my obsession with italian leather. That bag still makes my heart pitter-patter 10+ years later.
My mother started my bag addiction. She didn’t own expensive bags, but she always had a lot of them.
Now, so do I.
Now, so do I.
When I was 5 my favorite babysitter gave me a miniature version of her bag and I was hooked!
