Quick, how many of the following are handbag designers:
- Tod’s
- Dior
- Emillo Pucci
- Ferragamo
- Celine
- Marc Jacobs
- L.V
Times up. If you knew that all are top handbag designers, you’re right and you might be a handbag junkie. But just to make sure, ask your self these questions:
- Do you call the curtain rod in the shower “his side of the closet" because your designer handbag collection takes up so much room?
- Do you own more then one of the same bag, “just in case…"?
- When considering what to name your first born, did you try to convince your husband that GUCCI could be a boys or a girl’s name?
If you answered yes to any or all of the above questions, then you are definitely a handbag junkie. Its okay, there are many ladies out there that are just like you. There is absolutely nothing wrong with loving designer handbags. There are a lot of other addictions that could be worse. Take chocolate for example. Being a chocolate junkie just adds curves in all the wrong places. Buying just the right handbag can actually make you look thinner. Nothing wrong with that.
Some might say that the expense of being a handbag junkie is outrageous. Well, no so more then men’s obsession with cars. Why, the money it would take to buy one ‘67 Chevy convertible could buy four or five authentic Louis Vuitton. Now, I ask you, which would you rather have, some old car that your grandma remembers rolling off the assembly line, or a beautiful GUCCI Leather and Canvas Satchel Bag? Isn’t the choice obvious?
And remember, anyone who asks you how many handbags does one person need, probably takes pride in his holey t-shirt collection and will never understand. So give him a quick kiss goodbye, grab your credit card, and head out the door to go shopping, for a new handbag of course.
