I have never bought and expensive purse for myself. However, for my recent 40th birthday, DH and 14 year old DS went shopping for me. They couldn't decide which purse I would like best between two Dooneys, so they bought them both!
I have a couple Liz Claiborne. I also have a Fossil purse that my mom bought me for Christmas, it was like $128. I thought it was really nice but thought the price was outrageous. I kept watching for it to be on sale, finally she bought it for me!
I have one small Coach purse that I love. I bought a D&B once and decided that I didn't like it and returned it before using it. I have several Liz Claiborne purses, that's actually about all I ever buy in the way of purses and wallets. I love them.
There was no all of the above options...purses (especially Louis Vuitton) are my major addiction. Although, I will say I seriously thought about getting help when my husband pointed out (after the purchase of my latest Louis) my purse budget = a Luxury WDW vacation with a Floridian Suite!
