The Designer Handbag phenomenon!
Designer handbags are continually rising in demand as well as in price.
“Selfridges has just reported that the average price of its designer bags is now £850 - up 55 per cent since 2005. Even Topshop, that bastion of no-nonsense shopping, is charging £80 for one of its leather bags - one that is, rather bewilderingly, flying off the shelves” (Daily Mail 05.03.07)
However, this week saw the launch of the world’s most expensive handbag. A Louis Vuitton Tribute Patchwork, costs a staggering £23,500!!! This is nearly £3000 more than an entry level Mercedes car!

Therefore, you no longer need to feel guilty spending £300-£500 on a handbag!
