UND Student, Greenbush, Minn., Native Collects Bags

Tessany Becker, 22, born in Greenbush, Minnesota, is not your average shopper bag - until now. He is a collector of over 75 functional fashion accessory.

"I think the more stock I've ever had was 87 or 89 - maybe 90 - was there," Becker said of his collection, which began at an early age when he received a Christmas present for his sister's purse.Louis Vuitton 2011

Becker selective, but still very large collection that has had its cabinet, composed primarily of handbags that is not typical, functional bags large and some small scratches that are activated on a daily basis.

"Large bags are more versatile - you can wear your suit, dress down and add drama," said Becker, adding that some can be used crosses. "I love fashion and have or use something that stands out from the rest."

This "trend" can also remember where they bought each bag glamorous.

"I really like shopping in thrift stores, places, vintage, TJ Maxx and Burlington Coat Factory," said Becker. "I find the stores that are not all going."

"If it is below $ 30, I like it, fine."

But a few months ago when she was shopping at Macy's in Fargo, Becker fell in love with a handbag Guess $ 110, but she could not imagine spending so much.

"It was the most amazing blue bag I have ever seen," said Becker. "I sat and stewed about whether I should spend that much for a bag, but when I went to" visit "again, he disappeared.

"Recently, I found exactly the same stock at Burlington Coat Factory almost a third of the price."

Since the parent is UND, Becker has done his share of moves. He always said, when he rented a new place, trying to cut her handbag collection.

"I feel that the move gives me a great opportunity to be a little more selective of those who want to maintain," said Becker, who specializes in primary education and double minor in English middle-level education.

And each new home presents challenges on how to keep his pile of handbags.

A year ago, Becker lived in an apartment where her room was a large walk-in. Instead of using it to hang and organize clothing, took her collection of handbags for over three quarters of the closet, each clinging to its own support.Louis Vuitton Bags

Becker wants to think about their collection in this way: "I like my money where I can see it - hanging in my closet."

He also used this room to present a collection of shoes and jewelry.

This year, Becker must be a little more creative, because she lives in a small two-bedroom apartment with a roommate.

"I used cement blocks to raise my bed and I bought Rubbermaid containers to slide underneath."

Becker said he could not find bags, jewelry, or even events that seem to interest her. So, one of his new hobby makes her jewelry.

Finally, he said that one day he would own his own shop.
