Most Expensive Handbag

Ever wonder what’s the most expensive handbag? Do you think you can afford it? Well, according to Forbes Magazine this is the most expensive handbag….

Fendi

Fendi “B.Bag“

Hailing the return of the structured bag, this might be Fendi’s best seller since the Baguette. Although the white lambskin runway bag (pictured on the runway) was well-received, the $27,700 black crocodile version is truly coveted.

Pick The Best Swimsuit This Summer

It’s officially summer and you probably already took that summer getaway last Holy Week but if you are still planning to hit the beach, make sure you pick up the best swimsuit for your body type. Before plunging in the beach, go hit the mall first and make sure you have the right swimsuit to wear.

Here are some tips from The Lucky Shopping Manual by Kim France and Andrea Linett to keep in mind when you go swimwear shopping:

  • Find out what body type you have. This understanding helps you pick what fit and style suits you. Knowing your body more will help you embrace and love it more, making you comfortable in whatever shape you have.
  • Keep in mind your beach activities when choosing a suit. While a string bikini may be perfect for sunbathing, it may not provide you the support you need when playing beach volleyball, for instance.
  • Try on trends. You need not limit yourself to what’s available or what you’re used to. You gain more knowledge about what works for your shape by trying on a wider variety of styles. For instance, you may have overlooked a maillot that fits you perfectly by assuming it wouldn’t look good on you. And you do know trends change from season to season, so why not go for a trendy suit over a more conventional one?
  • Move around when trying on swimsuits. While in the fitting room, try to bend, squat, or stretch with the suit on to test the fit and support it provides. Check key areas like the butt, back, breasts, and shoulders if they fit snugly without having to be tugged or pulled constantly.

Most Expensive Women Shoes

I do love shoes and I just cannot explain why I I love to buy them all the time. I often wonder too what’s the most expensive shoes in the world and guess what according to according to Forbes, they’re these Manolo Blahnik alligator boots, at a whopping $14,000.

Famous for excruciatingly high heels and similarly painful price points, Manolo Blahnik nevertheless inspires cult-like dedication among his customers. He even does bridal shoes, though we don’t recommend the alligator boots for anything matrimonial–unless it’s a bachelorette party. The $14,000 pair is available at Manolo Blahnik’s West 54th Street boutique in New York.

Whoa!!! I don’t think I can afford that…. and I’m wondering who have these shoes???
