What Recession?

Sigh, to be David Beckham's wife would be a dream come true. Hours and hours of massages, manicuring, pedicuring, shopping, botox treatments, picking up three amazingly cute kids, not eating, and then coming home to my hot hubby...ah... the dream life - except for the not eating part (hello, previous post about Pretzels and McDonalds!).

Seriously though, Queen Victoria Beckham a.k.a Posh Spice clearly lives in her own little world, one in which there is no recession, and no qualms about money. Here she is seen showing off a Christmas gift from David, a Hermes Himalayan Birkin.

What's so special about this bag? It happens to be one of only three in the world, it has diamond hardware (most noticeably a 3 carat diamond on the lock), and the waitlist for this bag has been closed. Those that were lucky enough to be put on the waitlist have to wait at least four years. According to the Dailymail the price tag is a staggering $120, 000USD.

While I would covet a Birkin, this one is a little too OTT...even for me. I just don't think I would ever feel comfortable wearing or receiving such an ostentatious gift. If I were married to David, I think breakfast in bed from my hubby would suffice as an amazing Christmas present ;)
