Do you use handbags? If so, do yo use them only when going out or do you use them on a daily basis? Do you use the same bag for going out as you use for daily use? How large is your handbag collection?
Please do tell.
As for myself I have quite a few bags. I don't use a bag on a daily basis although I have bought a few with that purpose in mind so that I don't have to have everything stuffed into my pockets but I only tend to last a few days occasional a week or two before I get fed up having the bag with me all the time and end up throwing it in the bottom of the wardrobe or hanging it somewhere and forgetting about it.
Also when I buy and new bag and start using it when I haven't been using one for a while I have a bad habit of putting it down and going to walk away without it as I forget that I have one with me.

When I used to wear make-up I would carry a hand bag but ever since I became a mom it hasnt become a priority and all I carry arround is a wallet with my major important things in it.

I usually tend to buy as small a bag as I think I can get away with as I don't put that much in it.

I always have my purse with me! I have tons of them. They range in size from a briefcase to a child size. I usually carry one in between sizes, I love to change my purse out about once a month. The picture below is of my current purse, I think it is about time for a change though.

Change is good, well I keep telling myself that because it means I have an excuse to buy a new bag lol.

I have a main handbag that i use on a daily basis, to take to work, go shopping etc. It keeps all the bits in that i need (and some that i probably don't!), like my wallet, make-up bag, tissues, hairbrush, hair spray, wet wipes, headache tablets, unmbrella/sunglasses (depending on season) etc.
When going out at night i have different bags that i use, smaller and prettier ones, that i just few a few bits of make up in, a brush, my ID, some money, my phone and maybe tissues. Wherever i go i always have some kind of bag with me! I couldn't go without.

I just can't seem to stick to using a bag and always end up back with everything stuck in my jeans pockets, not a good look when your back pockets are full and you haven't got the smallest of rear ends as it is lol.

Normally I carry around too much junk for a regular purse or handbag so I use a backpack. It's not the most fashionable choice to make but I never have to worry about not having something with me if I need it. From a small first aid kit to snacks if we get stuck somewhere ... I know it's in there ... somewhere lol.

On work days I use two bags. I carry my money, phone, sunglasses, et al in my small purse. I carry a book, my lunch, my water bottles, and ibuprofin in a medium sized tote bag. I make my own bags, so I can customize them according to my needs. I used to carry everything in the tote bag, but I got so tired of losing my wallet and cell phone among everything else!
In the winter I will sometimes not use my purse if I can avoid it. My winter coat has plenty of pockets on the inside to hide everything, and usually my purse is really awkward with the coat.

I know what you mean about losing things in a bag thats why I tend to go for ones that have more than one compartment or at least a pouch for my phone. The bg I am using at the moment for nights out has 4 zipped sections and it is only a small bag.

I always carry a bag daily in going to work where I put my personal things and paraphernalias. I use small and big bags depending on the occasions I attend and places I go. I always wanted carrying something. I interchange different bags. Sometimes I use the same bag the whole week.

Yes, I use a handbag. In fact I use many handbags. Which one to carry out depends on the time I am going out, where I am going and what things I may need. IN India we wear saree or salwar-kurta which have no pockets. It makes a handbag essential for us when we go out.
