Though greatly outnumbered by my shoe collection, my purse collection has always been and will always remain, my first love. I can't really tell you when or how I first fell in love with purses. I just know that in 2002 (vs 2006 when I bought my first 3 pairs of CLs), I walked into Louis Vuitton and so began my love affair with purses. Presenting my colorful purse collection:
Family Picture
Big thanks to my mom for helping me out with this one :) As I started to take each purse out of its dust bag, it quickly became apparent that there was no good way to display all of these purses together. The above mess you see was the best we could do :P One quick note before I go into each designer family; for a lot of these purses, I have no idea what the official name is. I'll try my best to fill in the blanks but for now, enjoy!!

my fave is the Zagliani and the Purple Ostrich :p
i love all your chanel and cl shoes, if you sell some of it, you can have your hermes birkin. im currently saving for my chanel, got a couple of lv a neverful damier ebene and mono speedy 30. also like your mulbery in ostrich. keep blogging, it's inspiring to read your entries, i'm your avid reader.
Deb- yah, those and my flaps are my faves
anonymous- so glad you enjoy my blog!! writing this blog us one of my favorite pasttimes and the experience is even better when I know there are ppl like you who enjoy fashion just as much as do :) Good luck with your first Chanel!! I will work on trying to save up for a birkin but I have a few more things on my list to get through first :p
I'm obsessed with all of your Chanel bags and the Fendi Spy initiated my handbag fetish so I love the fact that you have one!

Thank you, Michael!! I'm basically addicted to buying flaps...too bad they're becoming sooooo expensive!! The new price for a 227 is 3600 :( I'm really attached to my Spy...for awhile, I wasn't really into any bags, then the Spy came along and just like that, I was back in it :)
OMG! *faint* Lovely collection!
I love the Chanels & the YSl Majorelle. We could have been bag twins on the latter as I almost bought that same colour last year!
And I was a tempete cousin with you as I had the Day GSH.
Thanks, T!!
Lol...I got the majorelle during the crazy saks sale of 08..love sales!!
i love seeing your purse and shoe collections! however, when i click on the thumbnails to view the larger image i'm directed to a nonspecific "photobucket" page. i even signed into photobucket but still there's no trace of your photos. am i missing something about how to view the full size images? thanks for having a great blog!!
awesome collection!
un beso,
Iridiai
Hi beautiful stuffz !!! :)

I'm a new blogger! nice to meet you

I wish I had enough money to afford them all.
And I gotta agree with Anonymous, your blog's really inspiring.
You must be a millionaire haha.. :P
I'm following you, hope you'll also check my blog or follow? :)
Best regards, T.Linh xxx
standby passenger - hi! Thanks for stopping by :) My albums are all private but I might resize these later so you can see a bigger image. Sorry about that!
Thank you, Iridiai!!
stylish girl - thank you and welcome to the blogging world!!
FashionAve - Thanks for following me, I will visit your blog in a bit :)
I don't visit for a couple of days and your blog becomes porn for women! LOL :) Lovely collection--both purses and shoes. I really like the Mulberry purple ostrich bag.
How do you ever decide which one to carry?!?
LOL, hi Manolo!! I finally got my lazy butt to take some pictures and hence the many new pictures you see :)
I have a 3-week rule for my purses (mainly cus I hate switching the stuff back and forth). I try to go through them all once before I repeat any one purse...so I guess the simple answer is, I randomly choose one that hasn't recently been worn yet...LOL
Just when I thought you got the best shose collection I've ever seen...you surprise us again with such stunning purse collection!! The most I like about your collection is that you got all these beautiful colors, not just black or neutrals, bags or shoses. the purple orstrich Mulberry is such a good buy, not mention all these colorful Chanel flaps!!
^^Thanks, hun!!
I know, I'm actually a bit surprised myself abt all the colors I have...LOL
The Mulberry was an incredible purchase...I think if you read back to the original post, I talk about how I walked in, saw the purse, and was then informed that it was on SALE because of Mother's Day!!!
Such a gorgeous collection! love them all!
The Dior is delicious
I'm in awe :)
Beautiful collection and nice photos! I love the metallic silver reissue, teal Muse, and the python bag!! I am going to have reconsider the Bayswater, it looks amazing in the bright colored ostrich. I actually got the same two bags from the Chanel cruise collection except got the bleu roi flap in lambskin. Of course I've still be too scared to use it because it's been pouring here!
what a great collection!
Thank you all so much for your lovely comments!!
WOW!!! I love your collection!!!
Thank you, Mia!
Woww, gorgeous! You're making me wanna go out and buy that LV I've been eye-ing...yikes! xoxo, holly in heels
Thank yo, Holly!!

Thank you, juznie!!

Thank you, haute girl and tam pham!!
That Dior saddlebag is stunning!

Thank you! I got her when I was in Milan during the Saddlebag craze :)
Absolutely love your Balenciaga family! You've got some great colors.
One of my favorite bags of all time, somehow I only just bought my very first, black giant brief with silver hardware <3
Have you heard THE news? Balenciaga is releasing suede bags next season. First time ever! So incredible. We've ordered them(I'm that fashion addict that works on Abbot Kinney in Venice).
Honestly, waiting for something THAT good is torture. Oh, the collection is never complete. That is at the top of my list for next season. :)
Hi Sara! Thank you and congrats on your first Bal!! Love the Giant Brief...I sorta, kinda want a Giant Day but I'll hold off for now :P
Suede you say?! I haven't been keeping up with Bal lately but I'll def keep that in mind :) I also must visit you when your order comes in so I can maybe drool along with you ;)
Impressive collection! =) I'm a Chanel and Bottega Veneta girl myself. I think the BV bag that you don't have the name yet is called 'Sloane'. I have the same, in black.
Thanks for the intel, Shazz!!
This is the first time I've seen your blog and I think I'm in lurve! Your bag collection makes my mouth water, bags are my first love too, and I love the family photo.
Keep the photos coming. Thanks
^^yay, so glad you enjoyed this post! Hopefully I'll be adding a few more in the near future :)
hello there! i love your blog! its so fun reading, i only just discovered it last week. your louboutin collection is amaaazing! i've never seen anythng like it, its like a store! you are so lucky!!! :) i totally understand how you feel when you are able to " find" a very rare item you've been looking for for a long time! next time if you want to buy a chanel flap thats sold out you can try ebay! i was able to get the chanel 2010C red caviar maxi on ebay , it was a lil more expensive than retail price but it was sold out everywhere i called!!! hope you update often and your louboutin collection keeps on expanding! :)

Hey lady!
I love your wonderful collection! Well I have to be frank I got your blog via searching for Chanel 10C bleu roi jumbo...I love the bag so much! If you ever consider selling it, do contact me!
Also a purse lover and collector.
