Part I: PurseBop’s Invited… And You are Too!
Part II: PurseBop’s Debut at Christie’s – What’s Your HGB?
Part III: What’s Your Holy Grail Bag?
Part IV: Christie’s Auction “This or That” Showdown
Dear PurseBop family, we are so excited to wrap up our whirlwind Christie’s journey with one last minute behind-the-scenes look at some Hermès beauties. With two of the three Handbags and Accessories summer auctions complete, PurseBop is honing in on the final of the trio: the online-only NYC auction that will be going on for three more days, ending on June 22.
PurseBop has been spending time in NYC and taking a close look at the handbags in person. After inspecting bags upon bags with the help of the Christie’s team, she’s finally decided upon 5 favorites—but not without great difficulty given the stunning spectrum of bags on display!
All 5 of these bags, PurseBop believes, are worthy of the title “Holy Grail Bag,” a topic we considered in great depth on the Christie’s website a few weeks ago. (Read: What’s your HGB? Let PurseBop Help you Decide.) Take a look at PurseBop’s top five picks from the online auction below… and keep reading for a special surprise at the end!

Oh my, the Ostrich Kelly is my age ???? But she definitely aged better than me (kind of frustrating ????????), so two thumbs up for Hermès ????????????????????????????????!! I must admit I fell in love with the Blue Indigo Kelly ???? And that black alligator B25 is probably from another planet… this planet does not make bags so precious ???????? all 5 picks are amazing! And so are the bags that appear on the background of the video ????????????????❤️????
