I threw a lot out last year, but I still have six. I intend to buy a new one soon because my larger black handbag fell apart and went in the clear out.
Funny thing is I use a rucksack on a day-to-day basis. Otherwise I'd need a second bag for my lab coat.
I don't really like that sort of thing, but I do have one black punky looking bag that I can throw over my shoulder. I think it would classify as a purse?
I've two. One larger I use everyday and one tie-dye I use for occasions I need a smaller one. I also have some cloth totes and bags but they are more for carrying around clothes and food.
I have three casual handbags. Two are oversized because I tend to carry a lot of things with me. One of them is a small american apparel duffle bag that I usually take with me when I travel because I can fully zip it. I have two "formal" handbags that basically only fit a wallet and my phone. I also have a couple tote bags lying around.
I have zero, but I've crocheted myself a small rucksack backpack in case I need one because pockets in "girl" clothes are unfortunately fake, nonexistant, or really small.
I get my purses from my favorite store, Walmart. The cashiers just hand it out to you, for free! I've never looked so cuter plus the bag is good for the environment. They call them, "Le Plastic" which I think is French for fancy.
I have about ten in total but only use about five bags on a daily basis. I tend to switch them up depending on what type of outfit I'm wearing for the day. I love having different colors and options. Small light bags are my favorite because I honestly don't carry much except for work.
I have lots of bag that I switch around using for different occasions or outfits. I have a few totes that I use for work so I can bring my pen-pal or coloring stuff when I want to, one of them is denim with flowers and stripes, one is green, and another black. And then I have a ton of smaller bags I use for going out mostly since they don't hold a ton, an alien head bag, an eyeball bag, a "Handbook for the Recently Deceased" book bag, a black heart ita bag, several bags with skull prints on them, a rocky horror bag, a mini batwing backpack, etc etc... I can't think of all the bags I have rn...
On top of these I have an endless wishlist of bags I want, most of the quirky or gothy.
i don't use handbags or purses, instead i have a backpack and use one of those simple fabric bags you often get for free from events (idk apparently they're called tote bags??) in school to carry around my books and stuff.
I have two. One is black and I consider it to be multi-purpose in that it goes with almost anything. It's my go-to bag whenever I go out, but I do have another cream coloured purse that I wear with more summery outfits. I'm not really a backpack person but I've seen some cute ones, though I don't think I'd ever use one.
I'm actually thinking about ordering another purse soon.
