ever since i started blogging, the only bags i've acquired are eyebags (see what blogging has done to my sense of humour?)... haha... all right, lame jokes aside, i love bags too. i have a bag for every aspect of my life: a haversack for work, a sports bag for dragonboat, a gym bag, a bag for climbing. with bags, i don't need them luxurious and expensive but these are five bags that we can all lust after.
1) mouawad's 1001 nights diamond purse - $3.8 million

2) hermes birkin by ginza tanaka - $1.9 million
this was sold in 2008 for around $1.9 million. it is made of platinum and has over 2,000 diamonds. it is also versatile, so that in addition to being a handbag, the diamond strap can be used as a necklace or bracelet by removing it from the bag. the bag also has an 8-carat pear shaped shimmering diamond that can be used separately.
