Default Hermes Birkin in Croc Porosus Lisse

Hermes Birkin in Croc Porosus Lisse

In the race for Forbes' Most Extravagant Handbags, it comes to be no surprise that Hermes takes the cake. The Hermes Birkin in Croc Porosus Lisse is no boring 'ole standard issue 35cm Birkin, but made on special order only. The limited bag is set with over 10 carats of shiny diamonds, and with a price tag of nearly $150,000 I am quite confident that the number of orders on this beauty are quite limited as well.

Many thanks to Hitha Prabhakar, Megs was very excited to be interviewed by Forbes for the article! Read the full story here.

"If something is hard to find or impossible to get, it makes it more valuable," says Meaghan Mahoney, editor of purseblog.com, an online community devoted to handbags. "In addition to paying the high price, you are also getting something that no one else will have."
