4. Hermès Chaine d’Ancre Bag – USD 1.4 million
If you just happen to have a spare 1.4 million dollars lying around, you’ll be able to acquire this seemingly heavy mess of chains that ranks 4th on our list of most expensive designer handbags in the world in 2016. Although I will admit that the “Ancre” (anchor) part is accurate since the chain links are properly shaped to resemble an anchor chain, most people don’t know this, so it just ends up looking really jail-ish.
If Keeping Up with the Kardashians had sex with Prison Break, the result would probably be this white gold and 11,303 diamonds malformed baby. There’s nothing more uncomfortable than having to lie to people about how ugly their child is (especially if it’s a 1.4 million dollar child), so if your millionaire friend happens to walk by carrying this bag just smile and wave, boys, smile and wave.
3. Hermès Birkin Bag by Ginza Tanaka – USD 1.9 million
Unlike the previous, this platinum-made bag, with over 2000 diamonds which ranks 3rd in our list of most expensive designer handbags in the world in 2016, looks like it was taken straight out from Cinderella. It also has the peculiarity of having a detachable diamond strap that can also be used as jewelry, while the purse is used as a clutch, so that could be regarded as “saving” money… right? The pear-shaped diamonds incrusted in the purse are also removable to be worn as earrings and so.
Even so, I believe this practicality might be viewed by the crème-de-la-crème as just being “cheap”, in a way. Or so I imagine, I don’t really know what these people think. I can also picture someone having a nervous breakdown because the precious stones keep falling off the purse and getting lost at the Oscars ceremony; that’d be funny to watch, and very Cinderella-like.
