An Informal Poll

Yall are cracking me up over your comments on this post.  It seems the general consensus is that a woman really cannot have too many purses.

Which leads me to my next question.  How many purses DO you have? 

I went and counted mine.  I have seven.  And I definitely use them all.  Some I only use in the summer and some only in the winter, but if I haven’t used one in a season, I sell it or give it away.  I’m like that with clothes, shoes, and well… just about everything.  I’m pretty much the polar opposite of a "pack rat".

Just for the fun of it, I’ll show you my current favorites.  I’m pretty much alternating between these two this winter.

So.  How many purses do YOU have?  Do you use them all?

I’d throw in a Mr. Linky and call it a Photo Tag, but I think one Mr. Linky in a week is my quota. 

But hey, feel free to post a picture of your favorites on your blog.  And if you do, leave the link in the comments so I can come check it out!

Aw heck.  You know what?  Here.  It’s more fun this way.

TGIF!

  1. I really like the second purse!! So cute! If I saw someone with that purse, I would take notice and think that girl must be so hip to have a purse so cute! :o)

  2. I don’t think I can count my purses, but the sad thing is I only use one or two of them! I am usually the polar opposite of a pack rat, but not with purses and shoes! BTW where did you get those two purses because they are both SO FAB! (and since my birthday is next week I might need to send out a request to husband!)

  3. I’m in the dowdy club when it comes to purses. I love them, think they’re gorgeous, but hate to spend money on them. Plus I’m oh, so picky about functionality.

    So.

    I’m currently carrying a Fossil messenger-type that I got at the Fossil outlet. I have a couple more Fossils in my closet, along with a Liz or a 9 West. I’m definitely low-rent designer over here. No Dooney, Coach or the likes for me.

    Not that there’s anything wrong with that. I’d love to have one; I’m just not gonna pay for it.

  4. You know, I’ve never been a purst person…Jeans, now that’s a different story. I am trying so hard not to go buy another pair today. Did you know Lucky is having their half off sale? How can I resist?

  5. I played along. I love photo tags!

    Are you ever in a rush to get out the door and grab your purse only to find later that it doesn’t match?

  6. Christine – it came in dark brown. Coach outlet. I only ever buy Coach at the outlet, and then it has to be marked WAY down. This burgundy one was $100, which is a pretty great deal on a Coach.

    Midlife Mom – $400? Pick me up off the floor. I love Dooney purses, but I don’t have one and don’t expect I ever will unless they open an outlet. 😉

    Jenn – Bite your tongue! That would be a crime against fashion. Or, um. In other words, yes. 😉

    Nap Warden – Someone better tie me down b/c Lucky jeans at half price is just too good to pass up.

    Lori – Fossils are great. I have a Fossil wallet that I love. As far as Coach is concerned, I have one word – OUTLET. 🙂

    Mrs. Branham – Coach outlet and Bluefly.com, respectively. Both are probably discontinued by now though. 🙁 Happy Birthday!

    Steph – I think they all count, but I realize that I forgot to count my fancy clutch for formal occasions. So make that eight purses for me. 🙂

    Georgia Mom – Oh how you flatter me. Actually, a friend of mine turned me on to that purse. We both ended up getting one!

    Alrighty, then. I’m off to visit those of you who played the Photo Tag!

  7. I guess I am in the pack rat bunch on this one. I’m not going to admit to how many purses I have and got a new Dooney for Christmas…….. I like my black Fossil the best in the winter, lots of spaces. My new Dooney is funky with horse stuff on it so will only use it with jeans but really like it. (thanks Hubby! kiss kiss) Got DIL a new Dooney for Christmas too and she exchanged it for a bigger one on sale after the holidays. It was almost $400.00 full price, clunk…sorry, that was me falling on the floor, who would spend that much on a purse?! Thank goodness for good sales!!

    Love all your boot pictures!

  8. I picked 1-2 purses, but I would have to admit to that being slightly misleading….

    I get a new purse every year, sometimes every season. I just don’t keep them. (Hence my daughters have more purses than me! ha!) 😉

    I have two I am alternating right now, one black, one brown. And yes. I am am boring! 😉

  9. I have 6 purses and 5 small ‘evening’ type bags…..opps make that 6 small ones. An even dozen total. But I don’t know if the small one’s count. LOL I had many more small one’s but I sold them. Let’s see, Coach outlet is the way to go! I have 4 coach’s from the outlet and all were under $100 or near that amount. :o) Down in Vero Beach outlets they have a DB outlet! My mom loves DB but I’m a Coach girl at heart. I also got a cute Fossil tote in leather at Dillard’s a few years back for a whopping $25 from $150! Cha Ching! LOL Now to head to Tar-Jay for the 90% off deals!

  10. I stick to using two for the winter-the twin of your Coach and a blue leather bag. My Veras are hibernating for the winter and I am honestly ashamed to say how many purses I have. They all live in a LARGE storage box on the floor of my walk-in closet. I’ve been cleaning out toys lately but I guess I need to go through my purses, too. Some of the Veras are starting to scare me so they may be the first to go.

  11. I have 54 at last count. If you go to my blog you will see a flikr badge with my handbags on it. You can click and see all of my handbags there. I actually do use almost all of them at some time or another. I am constantly changing purses (every day to go with what I am wearing)

  19. I am a first time purse lady. Well, kindof. I usually carry a backpack purse. Not really cute, but very effective. For Xmas, hubby got me the very cutest green leather, with brown accents and a few diamonds on it. Very chic. And very small. I have had to downsize everything I carry, including taking off over 12 keys. Phew, the work it takes to carry a little, cute purse.

  20. Being that I try to declutter often and we are packing to move soon.. I have some of my purses packed. I did find some for ya!
    What fun things you think up for us!

  21. I know I’m late to the party, but I may be doing this today. I have no new material, that’s for sure. Well, I do, but I want to do this too. So, I may be a late arrival.

  22. You will have to scroll down a lil on my post. it is a bag i am using now that my aunt got me for Christmas! 🙂 I am going to leave another link too…for one of my fave bags that i own (and i definitely own TOO many bags!). Love this post!!! 🙂

  23. I have 2 that I use all the time. Just got one for Christmas! Then I think I have 2 other purses that have been relegated (is that the right word?) to the back of my closet until diapers are gone from this house. Like in 50 years…*sigh*
