How many handbags does a girl need?

With this existential question in mind I woke up this morning, so I tried to calculate the ideal number of handbags that one needs to have. Not so easy! Let's see:

1) Colour: You need at least a black handbag, a brown one, one in warm colours (red/pink), one in a metal-like colour and a light-coloured one. Minimum. Makes 5 handbags.

2) Size: Essential are the following ones: Very big (potentially staying somewhere over night but not wanting to intimidate your date with a suitcase), big (daily use 1), medium big (daily use 2), medium (daily use 3), medium small (daily use 4, you need some variation after all), small (going for drinks), very small (parties). Makes 7 handbags.

3) Fabric: At least (better: more than) one made of leather, one cotton, one futuristic fabric and one waterproof (for the outdoor girl ocassions). Makes 4 handbags.

4) Details: Extremely important. Must have: One studded, one glittering, one with fringes, one with rhinestones. Makes 4 handbags.


This leads us to the following calculation:

I need more handbags!
