UPDATED: addiction.

for some people it's drugs, alcohol, or shoes. not me. i'm all about the purses. adam is most pleased that i've found a less expensive brand to fixate on, but the volume of my recent acquisitions is a little scary. i've been going up to the lesportsac outlet where i can get a purse of a reasonable size for as little as $20. the most expensive thing that i have bought there was $97.50. that's a far cry from a MINIMUM of $595 for a vuitton bag.

my obsession is with the tokidoki for lesportsac bags especially. a new print is coming out soon, so i must get one of those. i have a bag from each season now. here's the inventory of tokidoki...

1st (spring 2006) - bella bella in the original print and bella in tokidoki black (with the original print interior)
2nd - (summer 2006) - caramella pouch in the camo playground olive print (an outlet find)
3rd - (fall 2006) - buon viaggio in the foresta print and stellina in the citta rosa print (an ebay find)
4th - (winter 2006) - mamma mia in the inferno print (my first that adam bought me for christmas) and stellina in the paradiso print (an outlet find)
5th - (spring 2007) - mamma mia in the adios star print and stellina in the pirata print

i don't think that i'll pick up the missing ones from the previous seasons. geez. i think that i will pick up a ciao ciao in the amore print when it comes out. i don't see anything else on the horizon that is calling to me since the japanese lesportsac site has tiny preview pics. oh and yes, i do use them all.

if you think i'm nuts about tokidoki, go to the tokidoki blog . that site rocks.

here's the update...

i found an amore bag at macys on april 1. they had just received them over the weekend. so, now i am a proud owner of a buon viaggio bag. :D :D :D
