It’s official – Christmas is just 60 days away! I’m not trying to drop any hints (wink wink), but a luxury handbag makes the perfect gift for any hardworking lady! I’m a huge fan of well-constructed, quality handbags. I believe purchasing a luxury handbag is no more unusual than splurging on the perfect pair of heels. If you are on the fence about making the investment, run through my list of reasons of why you should buy.

First of all, shopping for a luxury item is the ultimate form of retail therapy. What girl doesn’t dream of walking into Neiman Marcus to pick out a new handbag? Then there is the sense of accomplishment! You’ve worked hard to become a boss, so treat yourself to that Gucci bag. Another great thing about designer bags is that they will never lose their charm. Luxury handbags are like fine wine; their value increases over time. The key factors that determine the value of a handbag are the designer’s name and the products exclusivity. And let’s be honest, the value of a vintage Chanel bag will surpass that of a generic handbag. As mentioned earlier, I enjoy the quality of the materials used in the making of a designer handbag. The use of innovative materials and hardware mean you will have a beautiful bag that will last for years to come. Lastly, luxury handbags rarely go out of style so you won’t be criticized for carrying last season’s looks. Be smart in choosing the designer and style of your handbag so that your luxury investment will continue to make a statement! Here are some of my top choices for luxury bags.
