Ok, so for those of us who are completely out of depth in the how-many-handbags-have-you-got thread:
Here's a thread for those of us who have only ONE handbag. (+/- an evening purse for special occasions, which doesn't count).
I have ONE handbag, it's an auberginey purple leather one, with a wide textured crinkly strap. It sits perfectly on my shoulder and I *love* it.
I have one handbag too! (I have a sachel for the beach, summer etc, but I don't count it). It's a red leather JAG, short thick straps. It has a pocket for my phone and lip balm, a big divider pocket in the middle where I keep hair ties, pads etc. On one side I keep my wallet, keys, glasses case etc, and the other my course books and little pencil case. I love it!
MD I used to only own one handbag (not even a special occassion one), ok now is a totally different story.
Sorry Sopdet, the One-Handbag-Only Club is a very exclusive club. "I used to..." just ain't good enough for us :lol:
I also only have one!! (except the two nice going out ones)
It's black, only cost me $25 and lasted me almost a year so far. And it's preeetyyy (at least I think so). I always just use ONE, but I must absolutely love it. It takes me ages finding "the one". Then I use it everyday until it's worn out and I get a new black one. I always use black as 1) it's my favourite colour and 2) it goes with all my clothes. I do buy a different style every time I replace the old one. Depending on what I like that time around. It's all I need really. And you don't have to move everything into another bag.
Go the ONE bag!! :cheer:
Oh my! You've been told, baby!:
:nahnah:
:hide:
I don't own one. I own a bag, which is my handbag if I need it to be (cram all my work stuff in there). All I take when I go the the shops is my wallet in my back pocket and sometimes my phone in my front pocket. It's an Indian-style black shoulder bag.
Oh... exclusive... I guess I can't join?
I also only have one!! Just a black one. I don't see the point of having heaps :dunno:.
I also only have one handbag, it is handmade, cotton and it is a green fabric with trees, red birdcages and a black bird sitting on the cages, hard to explain but I love it!
I have only one, it is leather, neutral/brown colors, made by an ethically aware melbourne designer. I love it. :D
maybe we can be the exclusive I dont use one :lol::
I carry my wallet ... if I have a bag its a cotton carry bag full of kids snacks etc... :) so no real hand bag here
Only one hand bag here, brown leather with lots of zips and pockets.

Dianne
i have one, its from america and i love it
its big and has lots of pockets :)
big enough for if we are only going for a "quick" trip, it fits 2-3 nappies, wipes a bottle and some snacks and a change of clothes for both girls, plus all my stuff.
its pink and brown and black,a dn has a long adjustable strap..
i only have one - it's big enough for wallet and phone and not much else. has a long strap so i can throw it across my shoulder/chest and not know it's there most of the time. i'm just not girly girly enough for anything more than that
I only have 1 handbag too. Mine's black with a black, white and silver plaited strap and is lined with pink. I wore my old one out and still have that hanging on the hall stand but I never use it anymore.
I love my 'only' handbag, it goes with everything and holds all my crap. I do have an evening/going out bag but never use it because I lurve my handbag lol.
I only have one that's in use as well. The rest are those 'evening bags (all three of them) and they are in the dressup drawer anyway :redface:
Mine's black and gunmetal metallic, cheapo no brand type one.
Like Leasha I'm a wallet and keys girl these days so it lives on the back of my bedroom door.
I have one. It's a black fake-leather back pack style. It has pockets on the front for various bits and bobs and about enough room for my wallet, my diary and a water bottle and that's it.
It replaced my brown (real) leather tardis-like back pack when it died.
I still call it a handbag even though it's a back pack. Shoulder bags ALWAYS fall off my shoulders and this way I still have my hands free.
I still use it at times, although I mostly chuck my wallet in the nappy bag now.

I only have one LOL! It's an Annapelle black shoulder bag that I got from Myer. I love it, it looks very nice I think.
Only one here except for the 2 antique going out ones I have! I only pull them out for weddings etc.
Mine's black fake croc skin and such a gorgeous shape. was last year's xmas pressie from my mum! Oh and it looks really small but can fit soooooooo much in lol
For a very long time my handbag was the kids nappy bag :redface:
soooo I ended up buying one when we were on the GC in June...yes...I handbag lady here and I dont take it out, preferring my pockets for my keys and my purse in my hand instead
I'm in the 0 handbag club :) Phone in pocket so I can feel it go off, if I don't hear it. Purse in hand and Keys in pocket too. If I am not wearing pockets then I just carry it all. My phone can fit into my purse if I take it's leather case off.
WooHoo I belong to a club! :thumbsup:
I have one handbag and it is my only handbag. I only have one purse too.
My hangbag is black and is 'Fox' brand.
OMG there are people that bother with multiple purses????:
Hehe - great thread MD!
I've only got one too - when I 'retire' it and buy myself a new one, I add it to DD's dress up collection!
:hooray: I don't feel like the odd one out! I have 1 handbag, it's soft white leather(well maybe could be fake not sure lol) so a floppy soft sided bag it has some silver heats and stars on little chains hanging from one end pretty simple with 1 side zip on the inside I think (haven't used it since DS3 I'm on the baby bag) it's purely a chuck stuff in so I don't have to carry them vessel. I use my handbags until they die then I get a replacement :D
i dont even have one just the nappy bag maybe when the kiddies are a bit older
Yes! My MIL has about 20 or more!!! A new one every week and for every occasion.:
I don't have any :( :(
I'm seriously not kidding you, I only have a nappy bag. Big, black, bulky nappy bag.
Whenever I need a handbag (which is very rare, as where ever I am, so are my kids), I have to borrow one of my sisters...
Am I allowed to join the club??
haha!
Mine sounds like exactly the same Jag one except black :D:
Woohoo I belong to a club too!
I have 1 and I LOVE it!! Bought it from Witchery and it is such a gorgeous soft leather and fits so much in. Wouldn't trade it for the world!
Is that the fake croc skin one? It sounds similar to my jag one!:
Hehe, I just posted in the other thread - I only have one handbag too. The Christian Dior white saddle bag.
I *heart* my handbag!
Just checking in to my one and only club! :D Good morning girls :D
Hehehe I'm totally with Raupe on this one!! I spend forever choosing 'the one', wear it until it's dead, then go searching for a new one! I always carry those massive 'hobo' bags, I've got a 3-yo nappy bag here in brand-new condition because I quickly worked out that a spare nappy, travel pack of wipes, bottle and snacks could all be thrown in with my junk :) My handbag right now is a Kmart one, matte black vinyl with faux croc accents and a decent amount of hardware, pockets on the front and on either side for the little necessities.
Ooh I would go nuts with only one. I tend to 'collect' bags. I have a main handbag but lots of others that I might use occasionally. Handbags and bags in general are my main impulse buy.
I only just started using a handbag 2months ago - got it cheap from avon black ith purple insides... But now that I have found the use of a handbag and have got use to wearing and using it. I want a noice black leather one with lots of zips and compartments :-p
Would a black crumpler satchel mean I can join too? LOL I've never owned a 'proper' handbag, more of a daypack, canvas satchel person.
