Invest in more than one designer handbag for maximum impact

If you decide to invest in a designer handbag, you might think that one is enough. You’ve spent plenty on the first, and it’s black and versatile, so why buy more? You might be surprised to know that most women have more than one designer handbag. Some have many. Why? There are many reasons, actually.

First, it’s a misconception that you can’t have more than one designer handbag unless you’re rich. There are many ways to add designer handbags to your collection of handbags. You can buy good quality-knockoffs, or you can hunt in a variety of places for discounts. But don’t assume that you will be lucky to have just one – you can easily have more than one if you do your homework.

But why should you buy more than one designer handbag?

Different seasons

Maybe the black purse is great for winter when you’re wearing your wools and heavy cottons, but in the summer, you don’t think that your dark bag looks so great with your flip flops and straw hats. When you purchase more than one bag, you can think ahead and – if you know you will only have two designer handbags – make sure one is good for winter and one is good for summer. For many women, that might be a black bag and perhaps a white leather bag or a great straw bag.

Different styles

When you buy more than one designer handbag to have in your collection, you allow yourself to supply the right handbag for occasion. That is, you might have one great handbag for work and another you use on weekends. You might have one for your casual days and one for when you are trying to look and feel more pulled together. It truly becomes an extension of your wardrobe.

You reduce wear and tear

When you use the same bag day after day – even if it’s a hugely expensive bag of superior quality – you will see that it gets more wear and tear than if you rotate bags. You can essentially “rest” your bags when you have more than one to use. You might rotate by season, or outfit, or day of the week, but if you are rotating, you are providing your bags time to rest and you extend the amount of time you can use that bag. If you truly love it, not using it everyday will actually benefit you because that bag will be usable longer.

You can take advantage of sales

If you buy one designer handbag and think that you’re done, you might not even consider that you can take advantage of deals. If you get it in your head that you can have more than one bag, that in fact you might be able to have many, you also open yourself up to being able to find deals on bags. Whether those deals are in brick and mortar stores or online (usually the best option), you can add more bags to your closet and life when you consider that you should be allowed to have more than one bag.
