You know you are a bag lady when.....

[mzbaglady1]

In your will which handbag goes to a specific loved one. You lost count of how many hand bags you own and you are in denial of the possible number. When Erykah Badu Bag Lady song first aired I swore she was talking about me.

I think about bags a lot, look at bags a lot and buy a lot of bags!

...when you know you'd be happy in a designer bag and very simple outfit but would be hysterical if you were told you could have any designer clothing you wanted but could only carry a cheap plain bag the rest of your life.

I think this is the defining one.

...when you realise there's no hook on the back of the toilet cubical door so have to put the shoulder straps around your neck and wear your bag like a necklace while you pee rather than put it anywhere else.

But then, don't you worry about the natural oils (and/or any moisturisers/conditioners), from your skin/hair, getting the bag greasy?

What you should probably do, is get paper towels/toilet paper and make a little bag nest, on the floor, instead.

Or, ideally, bring a plastic bag, or something, with you to put your bag on.

Of course, then you would need another plastic bag, to put that plastic bag in, because it will have been on the cubical floor...

So, yeah, you would need to carry around two large plastic bags, all the time.

...when you train adopted street stray to pose with expensive designer bags.
Because he makes them look even prettier.

Love this so much


..... When you have no organization in your house AT ALL but you have set up a tagging system so you know each bag in each dustbag

...when you'd rather go thirsty than carry a bottle of water 'just in case'.

...when you take your coat off to wrap up your bag in an impromptu rain shower to protect it and get wet yourself.

...when you ask for a table for 4 for just the 2 of you (+ 2 bags)

...when you wear gloves because it's ostrich/croc (and not because it's cold)

I love all of these hahah - this is so great.

Putting your bag on the stall floor is really risky, because there have been incidents where a purse has been snatched. Thieves reach in from under the door/cubicle wall and strike when you really can't run after them...

When this happens.

your 4th grade class of all boys says "is that another NEW bag...?"

OMG.... I just thought of this idea yesterday and thought that this will be a great way to edit my collection and understand my style better!

She said she envisions "PurseLand"
like DisneyLand but instead of being Mickey themed, it's designer bag themed![emoji173]

it is a great thing... allows you to easily see what you do/don't use often, and helps me rotate them better

 

[Sparkletastic]

Your purse budget keeps rising and rising... when you've told yourself many times that $x is the ceiling! I keep breaking that every time.

I've given up. I've "raised the roof" so many times that I'm looking at clear sky. LOL!

Oh man, the bag on the floor makes me want to scream!!

I don't want to scream. I do scream. AAAAAGGGGHHH!!!!

when you take out a separate bag insurance policy

Well, of course!

when you have an Excel spreadsheet to keep track of your handbags and how often you wear them

Wait...this isn't standard? LOL!!
