How to Get Bag Rich: The Secret to Building Wealth One Designer Handbag at a Time


What Does “Bag Rich” Even Mean? 


Let’s get one thing straight—bag rich isn’t just about having a closet full of designer pieces. It’s about owning assets, not just accessories.


When you’re bag rich, you’re holding value in your hands. Think of it like this:

💼 That Hermès Birkin? It’s not just a dream purchase—it’s a better investment than gold.

👜 That classic Chanel flap? It’s money in the bank (but way prettier).

👛 That Louis Vuitton monogram you’ve had since uni? It’s probably worth more now than what you paid.

So, if you’re strategic, stylish, and just a little bit savvy—your bags can pay you back big time.



Step 1: Buy the Right Bags (Not Just the Trendy Ones)


To get bag rich, you need to shop with intention.

Here’s what to look for:

Timeless classics: Hermès Birkin & Kelly, Chanel Classic Flap, Louis Vuitton Speedy, Dior Saddle.

Limited editions: Think seasonal colourways, exotic leathers, rare collabs.

Excellent condition: If you’re buying preowned, condition is everything.


🛍️ Pro tip: Always keep the full set—box, dust bag, authenticity card, and receipt. This boosts resale value.



Step 2: Understand What Your Bag is Worth


You wouldn’t sell your house without a valuation—same applies to luxury.

At The Luxury Savvy, we offer free quotes on your designer pieces.

Just send us photos and the condition—we’ll tell you exactly what your bag is worth in today’s market.


And spoiler alert: the resale market is booming.

💡 Some Chanel bags have doubled in value in the last 5 years.

💡 Certain Hermès Birkins sell for above retail, even preowned.



Step 3: Sell or Consign Smartly


Want to cash in? You’ve got two options:

Consignment: You list your bag through us, we do the hard work—marketing, buyers, logistics. You get paid once it sells.

Buyout: We offer you an upfront payment. You walk away with cash in hand.


Either way, you’re turning handbags into income—and doing it with Scotland’s most trusted luxury reseller.



Step 4: Reinvest (Like a True Fashion Investor)


Once you sell, don’t just stop there. Upgrade.

Reinvest in a higher value piece or something rarer.

That’s how you build a capsule of value—bags that go up, not down.


It’s not just fashion—it’s a formula.



Step 5: Treat Your Closet Like a Vault


You don’t need to sell to get bag rich.

Just owning the right bags puts you in a strong position.

Keep them in pristine condition, insure them, store them properly—and when the time is right, sell or trade.


Think of it this way:

Your wardrobe should work as hard as your money.

So why not let your fashion fund your future?



The Takeaway? Bag Rich is the New Wealthy


Forget the stigma. Smart women know:
