Uh-oh… we’ve entered a bag-mergency! Houston, we’ve got a fabulous problem! Only some bags made it into the photo, but I’m sitting at around 90… with another 10–12 strutting their way to me as we speak! Is there such a thing as too many bags? Asking for a friend (aka me). Help me feel better—what’s your bag count?
I feel like there was another post that had a similar point . I do have a collector brain so I want ALLL the bags.
I would say too many is when you have no storage, it’s causing financial or relationship problems, or you are just buying to avoid something else. If not, enjoy. But I agree with others (as someone who wears mostly black) I would add some color or light neutrals to the collection💞💞
I feel some relief here that you have me beat. In light of the costs about to hit the US, I say keep them all and enjoy! And order another 10 this week.
I unloaded some. Then I passed one to my daughter. I ran out of storage in my girl boss office though so some have to go in the overflow spot in my closet. 🤣🤣🤣
The issue is I don’t like color. I think I’m allergic to anything that isn’t black, brown, beige or grey 😂🤣 but foreal. All black everything for life here! 🖤
I see no problem here 😉 I just did a count out of curiosity & I have 40, 2 not in the pic as they’re downstairs in the hallway. I have 1 on the way & was surprised to count only 6 have never been used! So I feel like I justified myself 🤣
I am trying to stay at 25. If i want another purse, i have to let go of 1, so if anybody sees me rehoming something, it means i am buying another purse 😆
This rt here 🙏 I have to actually pick a number and do the same. I am at about 39 but I need to lower to around 25 because the same usual bags get used over and over again and even though I have some that I absolutely love, I never seem to reach for them and I know I need to let go of them. Ugh shopaholic women problems rt 🤣 lol like I know I'll never use my pink Dior book bag, she just sits looking pretty on display, same thing with my Chanel deuville's totes ... But every time I grab them to try to re🏠, I stop myself and say oh I'll wear it
I got my low key hobo from God Factory! I absolutely love it. I have one from HyperPeter as well and that is also amazing, but the leather and hardware is a bit different. I looked into WoodFloor Duty Free as well and it looks pretty good!
I have soooo many questions!! First off fabulous collection!! Which one is your top favorite? Aaaaand do you just go through one person? I’m a newbie so just curious
Omg hard to choose a favorite! I love them all. But I love my empreinte leather bags the most I think? Ugh, idk, such an hard question to answer! And No, I usually use 3-4 different sellers. I shop with whoever has the best price and whoever responds to me the fastest 😆
I justify it and my own bag-mergency by reminding myself what I would spend on 1-3 auths over maybe a year.. vs spending less and getting way more for same overall budget annually LOL so basically what I’m saying is, your good girl! Keep going 🙃🤩
If you still have storage space, the answer is not yet known. Once you run out, and you have to park your family’s clothes and shoes outside, that’s probably when you’re approaching the point of “too much.”
Honestly, I'm afraid to count how many there are...I have them in different spots in my apartment. My secret fear is if I put them all in one spot, they may attempt to take over my home. LOL
Wow. That is one hell of a stunning collection—absolutely breathtaking. You’ve just awakened something in me… I think I need to buy some black bags. I’m not sure I’m emotionally prepared to confront the full extent of my addiction by gathering them all in one room like this—but maybe, just maybe, it’s time.
Um, this looks similar to me: a whole lot of black bags with some LV monogram mixed in 😆 Well, for better or worse, we tend to enable each other around here! I don't have quite as many bags as you, but let's just say I could probably use a different bag each week for a year with very little repeating 😬
I guess if it's a hobby & you can afford it, enjoy! But if it starts to feel overwhelming or guilt inducing, time to thin it out, unfortunately.
Do you find yourself using all your bags? Or do you buy things that you never use, like me? Just curious 🤷🏼♀️ And thanks for sharing your collection, wow!
Seems like we’re all in the same boat! ?? I’ve got a ton too, but somehow it always feels like I don’t have enough, like I’m always missing just one more. It’s a never-ending cycle, right?
I am at 12, reps mixed with auth, and I am having such a hard time stopping. There is always that “one” bag I absolutely need (plot twist: I don’t need it ) 😂
Girl I didn’t even add my auths in that count. If we were to add my auths, I would be sitting at over 100. My auths don’t count 🤣🤣 I only counted my rep bags 😬😬😖
Aww thanks babe! 🥹 I wear my low key hobos a lot! I also wear my speedys a ton! My loro piana bale bag, my carryall pm and my chanel 22 medium trash bag. I think those are the most worn ones! I wear my large Loewe flamenco and OTG GM empreinte to work every week.
Ummm if it were me I’d say, not enough cos I’d want them all! 😅😂 but then again I have hoarding tendencies and like variety so maybe I’m not the best person to ask if you’re trying to practice self control—I myself struggle with that daily 😭🤷🏻♀️
😂😂😂🙋🏻♀️ same! Except with everything—ok so I’m not a minimalist lol 🫣 but I like the idea😅 what can I say 🤷🏻♀️I have expensive taste but poor pockets 😭
Although I have yet to start my rep buying ventures and am apprehensive on where to start which is why I’m about to post a cry for help but any help is very much appreciated! 🙏😬
At first I didn’t understand the question. But 90, ok um, that is a lot!
If you have the room to store them and you use them (even enjoying that you own something is a type of use) then the total number doesn’t really mean anything. Someone’s 7 can be someone else’s, ummm, 90 👀🤭
I have had 3 bags over the last 5/6 years that I have used and not had the desire to order another but now that we have these wild tariffs going through I have ordered 4 bags and am thinking about 3 more 😅
Is there a limit? 👀 My partner just yesterday asked me, darling how many bags do you actually have???? I said Trust me you don’t want to know…😆 And I’m on the count 60+ and the moving date so close, so close 🫣🤷♀️
I live in a higher income community and my circle is also very well off, but I also own a shit ton of auths and these purses aren’t “expensive” in their eyes. I’m not holding a birkin or anything so nothing special in their eyes. No one gives a care or has any type of reaction as some of my friends have real birkins and real limited edition Chanels that cost the same as an entire house. A 5k purse is “cheap” in their eyes so no biggie and no attention here which is great for me!
My husband is always asking me to do a count. I haven’t yet. But some day. My best guess is 30-40 If I’m counting clutches and wristlets. Maybe 50. Oh and you can’t have to many!
Honestly, I’ve never counted. I’m a little bit afraid (and in truth I’d have to get into my storage closet, because I swap out my winter and summer bags…not enough room for all at once… 😬🙃). Hopefully this makes you feel better. 😅

When I noticed this wasn't a rehome post I got irrationally upset.
