Hermes Birkin bags are fashion icons regarded as much more than simple purses. They are status symbols, with waitlists
forcing fashion fans to wait more than two years to own one.
These stylish handbags were created by Hermes head Jean Louis Dumas and actress Jane Birkin. Word is that Jean wanted a functional weekend bag, and so the Birkin was born. Now these prestigious bags are seen on the arms of all the hottest celebs including Victoria Beckham, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Oprah Winfrey.
The cream of the crop is the matte crocodile Birkin, a sumptuous creation regarded as the Rolls Royce of handbags. This beautiful bag is made from luxurious crocodile leather. The white gold clasp of this stunning tote is encrusted with a dazzling 10 carats of white diamonds.
With only one available for sale anywhere in the world, chances are you and I will never own one. Luckily Hermes has plenty of Birkins available for everyone. Birkins start at a hefty $7500, but they look like bargains compared to this crocodile Birkin's $120,000 asking price!

These bags are so expensive, there must be a lot of demand for these products, I do feel that woman who buy these bags are saying a statement, not to men, but to other woman, the have nots. I think there is a division between what is truely stylish as to what could be called ugly. The birkin bag by Hermes is the perfect bag for style and could be considered an investment, basically in brown, black or red. The Louie Vouton patchwork bag, at 42000 dollars is an excess that will be passe in a few years time. not stylish at all.
