An Hermès Birkin bag is the ultimate in purse luxury. While crazy Lady Gaga decided to “accentuate” her own white bag with a Sharpie, there are very few people in the world who actually score this astronomically expensive purse for two reasons: the price tag and the prohibitive wait list. So, along with the recession that’s taken hold of our world in the past few years, comes just a tiny bit of exciting news. It seems the legendary wait list for a Birkin bag is officially no more! So, in case you’ve been holding on to a spare $6,500, then now is the time to get a little shopping-crazy. Luxury retailer Portero’s is already boasting their wait list-free inventory of Birkin bags, including a violet suede number that I’m currently having major fashion pangs over. [SheFinds]
