Any woman with even a modicum of fashion sense knows just how valuable a ladies bag is. It’s certainly more than a mere accessory. Ladies bags can be used to define women not only in terms of their personality but also with regard to their career, social standing, and even their outlook of life in general. Having at least one expensive ladies bag is a must. After all, a smart woman knows that an expensive ladies bag is not a frivolity but a necessary expression of self-love: as they always say, if you can't love yourself, no one else will be able to either.

If you're looking for the ultimate addition to your fab collection of ladies' bag, search no further because we've got the five most expensive ladies bags listed here.

5. Lana Marks Cleopatra Bag
Price: $100,000
Although the name Lana Marks may not ring a bell to those who aren't fully devoted to the world of fashion, self-confessed connoisseurs are to be aware that this woman only produces one much coveted style every year.

And for many, one of the most exquisite bags in their collection is the Cleopatra clutch bag. It comes with a brilliant metallic silver alligator suit and an 18-carat white gold structure that’s completely furnished with 1,500 – yes, you read that right – black and white diamonds.

4. Hermès Matte Crocodile Birkin Bag
Price: $120,000
There is only one of this six-digit bag in the entire world so anyone who possesses this magnificent creation from Hermès is sure to be envied by many. Its unique and extravagant feature consists of a white gold clasp that's decorated with 10-carat diamonds.

3. Urban Satchel Louis Vuitton Bag
Price: $150,000
Certainly, no list of expensive ladies bags is complete without at least a single LV. And in this list, a decidedly unique Vuitton accessory is featured. The Urban Satchel Louis Vuitton Bag is exceptionally different from other bags made by the famous company. Rather than the requisite fine leather, it's made completely of urban rubbish such as used water bottles, tea bags, cigarette packets, and even shrimp tails.

It may sound weird, but it certainly fetches an outrageous price in the market. More surprising than that is the number of rich teenagers eager to purchase this one-of-a-kind bag.

2. Chanel Diamond Forever Classic Bag
Price: $261,000
When the name Chanel is mentioned, the words “elegance”, “classic”, and definitely “expensive” come to mind. These are sure to emerge in your mind when you get to see the Chanel Diamond Forever Classic Bag, with its 18K gold shoulder chain strap, 18K white gold frame, and 334 diamonds that total 3.56 carats. It becomes even more precious considering that only 13 of this bag has been created.

1. Ginza Tanaka Bag
Price: 1 Million Pounds
Finally, we have a recently created bag from a Japanese designer. It has a platinum frame and its diamond-beaded strap can double as a bracelet or necklace. Its 8 carat pear-shaped diamond embellishment can serve as another accessory. Over 2,000 diamonds in total have been used for this bag, which is currently making the rounds in London shop exhibits.
