Just kind of a fun question however for me I'm embrassed. I used the same black purse for 2 months before changing. No idea why, I had several other very nice bags. Oh & I found several earrings I thought I had lost so, yea!
I guess it depends, I usually own two or three big bags at any given moment, and so I choose my bag based on whet will complement my outfit best. I also tend to gravitated to different bags at different times of the year (summer colors vs winter formality etc). I buy a new bag probably once every three or for months, and get rid of my bags after I've had them for maybe two or three years? Its sort of a constant rotation I guess. I don't change my wallet as often because I'm lazy and hate transferring all my cards. I just bought a new Ralph Lauren wallet that's this beautiful laser cut leather, but I had my last wallet for three years I think?
There's like 10-12 purses in my closet, so as often as I want.
honestly I have used the same shoulder bag for 4 months now...... :embarrassed: I have 1 purse, but since i am not out 100% every where i dont use it..

Abby, I'm impressed. You are so much more organized than myself. I shop a lot at thrift stores/Goodwill & every time I shop I always pick up 1 or 2 new bags. Then it seems I put them in my closet & never use them. I have 15 or so nice bags/purses in all different colors that I've never used. I will try better GF. Thanks for your reply.

I do a lot of thrift shopping as well! My current favorite bag is a Nine West that I got for $8, and my old wallet was a genuine Prada, I only paid $3! As far as coordination I think its just a natural thing. If its mid-August and youre in a beautiful flowing floral sundress a structured black patent bag might seem a bit out of place. Have fun with your clothes! Its why we buy them! :)
Depends on the outfit but I'm usually with a straw square bag that goes with mostly everything, since it's a neutral tan. But I have my purses for nights out on the town, like for dresses and stuff.

Earlier in life I was always so careful about matching my bag with my outfit & different colors for different times of the year & the color of my dress..... Not sure why however I guess I just got lazy. I bet you love your Nine West bag for only 8$.
I have other purses that I've bought over the years, but I still like my brown leather one that I've been using for the last 8 or so years. I like it a lot and I really don't want to get used to another.
I replace mine when it wears out. :) I've been through two in five years...
