Nicola, from Northern Ireland, said: “I have a spreadsheet telling me exactly where they all are.

“I keep them on shelves, in the wardrobe, under the bed, on top of the wardrobe and in my mum’s spare room.

“But my most expensive ones are under lock and key.

“I use a different one every day.

“My goal is to have 365 so I can have one for each day of the year.

“My husband is used to me, I buy them and they’re my hobby, he has his own hobbies.”

Nicola is keen for restrictions in Northern Ireland to end so she can expand her collection.

She reveals that she plans her outfits around the bag she chooses for the day, but has to prepare her look the night before.

Nicola said: “I’m very organised and it takes so long to find the bag I want, even with the spreadsheet, I have to plan the outfit and bag the night before.”
