Today Ashely Tisdale took to the Twitter-verse to announce the enviable arrival of her very own Hermès Birkin. The delivery marked the end of a two-year-long wait the actress endured for a covetable piece of fashion iconography. The bag, created in 1984 and named for Jane Birkin, ranges from $9,000 to $150,000 and has become essentially synonymous with luxury — and not easy to come by. So, in honor of Ashley's fashionable milestone, we're taking a look at the other celebs who braved the wait list and scored their very own Hermès totes.

Kind of a Big Deal? Victoria Beckham in Flats!
Stop the presses — Victoria Beckham is wearing flats. True, she is en route at Heathrow Airport, but that doesn't usually stop our high heel devotee from teetering through customs. You may recall she once said she never wears flats. Never say never (one of my favorite quotes). She may not feel as powerful, but she still looks darn cute in her navy shift, black tights, signature sunnies, and black Birkin. Is this kind of a big deal? Might VB be loosening up her fashion ways?
Celeb Style: Ashley Olsen
