This is not the first time Victoria Beckham has tempted me with her gorgeous Hermes Crocodile Birkin. In fact, this seems to be one of Victoria’s favorite Hermes bags from her collection (rumored to be in the hundreds of bags).
Let’s talk about why this bag works. First off, it is a timeless classic, the Hermes Birkin. Not everyone loves this bag or understands the cult-like status it has garnered, but it is hard to find this particular version anything short of fabulous. Hermes uses premium exotic skins, and their crocodile skins provide an additional level of beauty. The color is what has me in love with this bag the most. You see, it is the most stunning hue of red. A shade that is not shockingly in your face but not dull or bland. Without being overly cliche, the color is perfect. Because of its deep saturation, it can work for nearly every outfit imaginable. And what I love to see is Victoria wearing a top and jeans from her collection with this gorgeous handbag.
Because of everything listed above, Victoria Beckham is carrying my bag for this week’s Want it Wednesday.
i love where her fashion evolution is at right now! super chic.
Her Birkin collection is beyond words. And the classic bag fits in seamlessly with her style. I love how she mixes seasonal pieces with such a chic and timeless bag. And I agree, Megs, the red is wonderful and looks especially good against her neutral black and gray outfit. (fb)
am not the hugest of Birkin fans, but I think I might sell my Mom for this one 😉 (fb)
It’s a stunning hue of red, definitely. Love the Birkin, so classic! (fb)

This does seem to be her fave! I saw her carrying it many time during the New York fashion week in Feb. It truly is THE perfect shade of red. I wonder how much this baby costs??

Too fake looking! Don’t like it.

What color is this? Rouge H? Prune? I must know….
Bourdeaux
OMG, my mom bought me a bag that looks just like that, but it wasn’t a Hermes Crocodile Birkin. She got it off of QVC, woo! 😛 (fb)
U r absolutely right that color looks like candy & I want a bite! lol HOWEVER, for some reason it’s also reminding me of a liz clayborn bag from marshalls BUT because it is hermes I WANT IT 2!
LOL Ideealist! I have that Liz Claiborne (burgundy) as my throw around bad weather work bag! It does look something like that…. I had to take a second look. Yes and I kinda want one too… : )
I hate red shoes. But, red purse I love them!!!!!!!! This Birkin is wonderful!!!!!!!
While I would not spend the money on a purse, it is quite gorgeous. (fb)
i love her whole outfit. i know many people have a strong dislike for Posh but her sense of style is undeniable (fb)
love her bags, not her (fb)
LUSCIOUS…Lushness! Argh If only I could …. 🙁 (fb)
Wow. That color is incredible. (fb)
i love her as well as hers bags!gorgeous!
I can’t help but love VB and that bag is stunning.
That color is absolutely beautiful! I would LOVE to carry that around! (fb)
I wish I was a fan of the birkin, but I just can’t get into them. (fb)
Love it! (fb)
All I can utter is Wow over and over again. (fb)
Absolutely WANT it!!! (fb)
Wow. I’m so jealous. I wish I had her closet!! (fb)
Ah, the only Birkin I’ve ever loved in the I-want-it way. Not enough to ever buy one, but this is one of the most gorgeous bags I’ve ever seen. The combination of skin, color, Birkin is perfect and luxe.
Oh its perfect!!! such a shame i will never be able to afford one….. (FB)
I usually don’t like Birkins but this one I LOVE. Such a gorgeous cranberry red. ME! (fb)
i want it!! (fb)
Definately a want! (fb)
Love the color. Victoria always has a great sense of fashion. (fb)
I want to know where can i get that bag? she always totes the best birkins and i can’t see to find them on the web..are the limited editions or specially made..purseblog can i get a reply pls..(fb)
Beautiful Bag (fb)
Although crocodile does not appeal to me very much, I would probably be willing to drop the money on this particular color of crocodile, if only I had it to spend. (fb)
Love is not even the words to describe this bag! This is what I dream of! (fb)
she has the best bags!
im so jealous lol (fb)
Its simply gorgeous! (fb)
ugh i want all her bags!!! (fb)
I love vb!! She is so stylish!! (fb)
I love this bag, Victoria Beckham is fabulous! (fb)
So classy, I envy her Hermes collection soooooo much. The colour of the bag is so rich, droolworthy!
she has hundreds, i only want one:)
life is unfair
I’m the only person in the world who doesn’t like Birkin. Please don’t shoot me! (FB)
yes, shoot me too please, I am not crazy about it..it’s a beautiful bag, but let them have it.
Beautiful! The color *is* perfect. (fb)
I have never been a great fan of Birkins BUT this bag…OMG Superb..Fabulous color and texture.(fb)
I love that colour. That’s the sort of red I would carry in a heatbeat. (fb)
Red is always a classy color and can match just about anything. I just got a red coach and love it! It instantly dresses up anything I am wearing. (FB)
The red reminds me of Rebecca Minkoff’s ‘wine’. A deep and neutral red that is a wardrobe staple. A Birkin is so beyond the realm of possibility in my life that I don’t think I allow my brain to ‘go there’. But I agree that the colour is wonderful.
Oops…(fb)
Beautiful color.
wow, this is amazing, I’d love it since she flow around the first time.
wtheck? (fb)
I hate snake leather, but I adore this crocodile Birkin … love it
love the colour but hideous texture (fb)
I’m not a birkin or Hermes fan either. I understand that the company uses superb quality leather and skins but their styles are so boring. The birkin is just a tote and they all look the same. The bags are just status symbols. Why else would someone own hundreds.
I never liked birkens but this bag, if I saw it on the street, I’d do a double take and stare it down till I figured out the brand of that bag. There’s something about crocidile skin that I love so much and want so badly…and I can imagine on a birkens, it’d last me forever. I wonder how much this costs anyways? I’m sure the price alone would make me freak. (fb)
i love it waiting on this bag 18 months but worth it !!!!
You will look at it and then look back. That’s how elegant and classy the bag is. How i wish Ms. Beckham would gift me one of his old Hermes. ha..ha..ha..wish upon star (fb)
loveee vb and her birkins 🙂
Love, love, love this bag. (fb)
The picture of the bag fails to do proper justice to its truly breathtaking color. The bourdeaux is a deep black/wine red and it’s my top prized bag in my closet:) I gifted this bag to myself when I turned 40 this past winter, rather than throwing a party:) I normally prefer a Kelly over a Birkin, but this croc Birkin has ruined me for all other bags. I agree with one of the comments that one probably does not need hundreds of Hermes Birkins, but this one is beyond gorgeous. This is probably why VB carries this Birkin quite often b/c every time I take it out of the box, it still takes my breath away.
Lucky you! It must give you great pleasure! Where did you buy it?
WANT. LOVE. NEED.
I can see why some think Hermes are boring, but they aren’t trying to be trendy or flashy. If you want something like that, get a Marc Jacobs. Hermes is all about timelessness, class, and old-school luxury. If you know anything about bags, then you know that Hermes is the king of classic.

I love birkins anyway, but the skin and the colour…..wow, the colour, it does just take your breath away does it? ***stunning*** (fb)
Omg! Love it!!! (fb)
I think that is the nicest Birkin I’ve ever seen.
I want it! Who doesn’t? (fb)
Victoria always thinking that she is a rock star or something
That is so delicious. Someday I’ll own one :p (fb)
Nice! however, I love kelly bag more than birkin….im thinking of buying a kelly bag but i have to wait at least 6 months and not only that, i have to purchase other things besides the hermes bags so they will let me be on the wait lists…hix…
Does anyone know what brand her shades are?
her shades are Louis Vuitton
i think they look like YSL or d&g?!
o its damn gorgeous bag with great great looks ,simply amazing with crocodile skin looks.and obviously is really expensive but i can’t see the price here.but seriously its one of the stunning piece.
Oh my God!!! I love this bag!!! The colour is one of my favourites! The skin looks so precious… it must be really expensive, though! Too bad I can’t afford it… If I could I’d buy tons of H bags!!! 🙂
Such a gorgeous bag!!!
i want it! (ipad)

Amazing Hermes collection (ipad)
I like Victoria (ipad)
The color is amazing!
A birkin is a birkin eventhough i prefer a croco kelly over it… I have a huge collection of both probably more than VB and I can assure that everytime I walk out with one, the stares I get is worth every moment.. especially with my 35cm Grey Himaliyan…
