The Birkin: is it the Holy Grail of all handbags? For many, yes. Yes it is. The Birkin typically costs around $20k, but if you really want to splurge, go for the Hermes Matte Crocodile Birkin Bag. At a mere $120,000, its much less expensive than Chanels Diamond Forever. A bargain! The 10 carats of diamonds encrusted on the Birkins hardware certainly add a nice bit of bling.

Chanel bags are definitely pricey even the lowestpriced bags run well into the hundreds of dollars. But theyre nothing compared to the famed designers Diamond Forever purse. This bag, which retails for $261,000, features more than 3.5 carats of diamonds. Oh, and the hardware? White gold.

This tiny little thing features more than 42 carats of jewels, including diamonds (of course), pink sapphires and tiny tourmalines, giving it a lovely pink shade, all in the shape of a positively perfect flower. If you want this, know its the ONLY one so if you drop the $92,000 to get it, at least you know you wont see anyone else carrying it.
