A lot has been said, heard and written about former Spice Girl, Victoria Beckham’s handbag fettish. Well as much as she likes to design her own fashion lines, the super sexy mom and fashion icon has been spotted venturing to several luxury brands to update her already quite extravagant handbag collection. The newest shopping spree got her the Hermés Birkin burgundy bag which apparently cost a dolloping $40K. The fashionistas might recognize the elegant design as the boreaux porosus crocodile.
So as of now, Vic Beckham has added 30 Birkin bags worth $1.5 million. Financial experts feel that the bag investments have a fair chance of growing in price in the years to come. We wonder if that was one of the contrbuting factors to Posh’s win as the Entreprenuer of the Year award back in the year 2007.

Alexander McQueen will go down in fashion history as that truly bad ass designer. We wonder if his bad boy image could be the contributing factor for his popularity. The Britisher has now come up with an exclusive range of men’s accessories. Apparently, this is the first time he has attempted something like this. We are talking about the exotic ostrich leather wallet that has an embossed skull.
This one comes pretty easy at $500 a piece. The wallet has been finished with genuine brown ostrich skin with a protective metal edging. As for the interior, it has been made in black leather. The inside has space for four credit cards (that’s a good enough number for one to survive in the lap of luxury), a coin compartment (very handy) and two banknote pockets.
