GTKY Monday - handbags edition

Good morning and Happy Monday!  After a tragic and stressful week here in Boston, I must say I'm looking forward to some kind of normalcy! 

For a totally trivial GTKY this week, let's continue explore what's in our closets!  After the shoes edition a couple of weeks ago, shall we confess our handbags & purses obsession?

1) How many handbags & purses do you currently own?

2) How many of those do you use routinely?

3) Which is/was your most favorite handbag?  Describe it and explain why?

4) Are you a) buy cheap and change style every season, or b) buy expensive, classic styles and use for many years?

5) What was the most $ you've spent on a handbag?  how much?  Was it worth it?  do you still have that bag?

6) Do you still carry a handbag/purse in addition to the diaper bag when you are out w/LO?
