Victoria Beckham - Birkin Bag Lady
Filed under: Handbags
The Big Money reports that Posh owns around 100 of the exclusive and pricey purses, a collection worth possibly $2 million. Bag prices range from approximately $6,000 to over $100,000, depending on the materials used. Exotic animal skins, like saltwater crocodile, up the price significantly, as do embellishments on the hardware (a crocodile Birkin with roughly 10 carats of diamonds sold at auction for $120,000).

Victoria Beckham, rocking a black tipped french manicure, arrives at Los Angeles International Airport to fly back to England with Melanie Brown (Mel B) to work on a new Spice Girls single and a television commercial. No surprise here -- the bag is a perfect match for the dress, but we can probably guess which cost more.

Victoria is trailed by several assistants who carry her luggage, block photographers, and escort her through security. Ever wonder what Mrs. Beckham carries in that expensive luggage of hers?

Okay, even if there wasn't a two-year waiting list to get a Birkin, most of us can't afford the price tag. And it's not like the value goes down over time (it's called an investment piece for a reason, people). However, we can dream, and we can gawk. And so can you -- check out the gallery of Posh and her many, many Birkins above!

As far back as we can remember, we have always been fans of the Smurfs. When we were making our way through elementary school, no homework was ever completed until we could watch at least thirty minutes of the Smurfs on television. And as adults, we've been known to sport vintage tees with the little blue creatures emblazoned on the front of them as well.
When it comes to designer purses, people who love them tend to fall into two categories -- those who like the name or label advertised all over the bag, and those who don't. The
