“But girlfriend, work with the kid. I keep you working that Hermes Birkin bag. Manolo Blahnik Timbs, Aviator lens. 600 Drops, Hercedes Benz. The only time you wear Burberry to swim.”

 – Jay-Z , ’03 Bonnie & Clyde

 

The handbag that has become a staple for women that are “high society” and “well-to-do”…is the Hermes Birkin.  Named after 60’s style icon, Jane Birkin, this bag is considered the creme’-de-la-creme’ of accessory items. It is iconic in the eyes (and closets) of many well-known celebrities, public figures, and unknowns who’s serious about their fashion.

 

     The Birkin bag can range anywhere from $9,000 to $150,000.  Because of it’s limited distribution, celebrities are put on a “waiting” list.  Some celebrities have been known to have waited over a year before they got their bag. 

 

The very exclusive Birkin is not for everyone (as you can see).   Only those who can truly afford one should carry one.  But, if you got the dough to drop on one of these beauties, by all means, get one!  They come in a wide variety of colors, styles, and can be worn with casual clothing or something dressier.

 

     Here are few styles to choose from:

 

The bags are nice. But at what point is it too much. How much is too much to spend on a handbag?

    Awesome blog! Do you have any recommendations for aspiring writers?
    I’m planning to start my own site soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
    Would you propose starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option?
    There are so many options out there that I’m completely overwhelmed .. Any ideas? Bless you!

      Fotopages…we would suggest you use a free platform such as WordPress as a starting point. This will give you the opportunity to fine tune your blog site (i.e. template, content, etc). If that doesn’t work, then you may want to hire someone to build and operate your site for you. -Stacks Mag
