Do you really re-use old handbags?

I find that once I buy a new bag, 99.9% of the time, I won't ever use the old one again. it seems like such a waste. I have sold a few old one's I had on eBay. but the higher end bags I don’t want to part with, yet I know I most likely will not use them again Chat Icon

Yes, I do. This is the only way I can justify spending so much on them.

I really don't have designer bags but I do like to use them all.

different occasions, different outfits.

Re: Do you really re-use old handbags?

i do - i rediscover them

i would never get rid of my designer bags, even though they might get shelved for a little while

by the time i (hopefully) have a daughter, i'd love to have "vintage" pieces to share with her ;)

Re: Do you really re-use old handbags?

My cheapo bags I usually don't use again, probably b/c I don't really love them. But when I splurge on a designer bag I search and search for one I love and I always wind up using them again and again

I have some classic Coach bags and I usually rotate them but a few of them are not big enough to hold all my stuff anymore so I should get try to sell them.

Yes, I do.

For the most part, I've been collecting vintage bags for over 10 years so they're already "old" when I get them. I have a few high end bags, but also learn to "rediscover" those too.

Honestly I have tons of bags that I never use anymore. I tend to just buy new ones and use them. I hardly ever break out my old purses.

I actually do. I cycle through them every couple of months. I have bags that I use every year during a certain season.

I'll break them out years later sometimes. I only own a few designer bags and have re-worn them again. I tend to stick with a bag though for years.

I try to rotate some of the bags that I have but I rarely do. I usually end up buying a new one.

Re: Do you really re-use old handbags?

I don't usually rotate the older designer bags, but isn't that the reason they have dust bags? to sit in our closets? Chat Icon Chat Icon

Some I do. If it is a too trendy bag then no.

I definitely re-use older bags. I invest in classic bags that aren't "too" trendy so that I can get away with rotating...

Re: Do you really re-use old handbags?

Sometimes I rediscover an old bag and will use it again - I do go for trendy bags at times though, and the style has just moved on (jelly bag, anyone? Chat Icon )

I'm the same as you. I tend not to ever use them again. I give my mom my last season bags mostly, but can't part with the expensive ones either.
