I love bags. I have about 20. 6 or 7 of them are mid-level "designer" bags from Coach, Kate Spade, Prada, Lilly Pulitzer. Most of the rest are nice bags from a department store, like Nine West.
I didn't pay more than $30 for any of them, except for one Prada bag that I bought for $80 on Ebay. It's the bag that I take clubbing. I buy all of my bags on Ebay or at the Goodwill.
