There were a barrage of Cruise and Resort runway shows over the holiday weekend, and many of our celeb handbag round-up usuals made their way to Rio for Louis Vuitton‘s. Not everyone headed to the runway shows, of course; some celebs stayed in town, shopped at their favorite stores and loafed around their usual haunts, just like I did. Others opted to use the weekend to up their A-level game by knoshing on some Italian cuisine with other A-listers. All in all, it was a top-notch long weekend with a top-notch roster of celeb handbag selections to match.
Alessandra Ambrosio
Louis Vuitton Twist Bag
Alessandra Ambrosio carried this cheetah print Louis Vuitton Twist bag to the Louis Vuitton Cruise 2017 show in Rio. LV already seems to be tweaking its new logos, which is fine by me, because I personally hated the revamped logos that first appeared on the Twist.
Catherine Deneuve
Louis Vuitton City Steamer Bag
Legendary French actress Catherine Deneuve also attended the LV show with a bi-color Louis Vuitton City Steamer Bag. The show took place at Brazil’s Niteroi Contemporary Art Museum, which is basically a museum on the ocean with a giant infinity pool feature, so as you can imagine, the visuals were pretty fantastic.
Demi Moore
Hermès Birkin
Demi Moore was recently spotted at LAX with a small bright red Birkin, which really pops with that Mickey Mouse tee. If you’re wondering what Demi Moore’s been up to lately, trust me when I say that no one really knows. Oddly, the tabloids are worried that she is “partying too hard,” mainly because she is starting to show visible signs of natural aging.
Heidi Klum
Gucci Boston Bag
Shop via Gucci
Here’s Heidi Klum, doing a little shopping in West Hollywood with a Gucci Boston Bag. And yes, to confirm your suspicions, those decals do depict a snowman being strangled to death by a python. Make of that what you will.
Jane Fonda
Chanel Classic Flap Bag
Paps caught up with Jane Fonda while she was leaving dinner at Dan Tana’s in LA. As you can see, she’s carrying a bright blue Chanel Classic Flap, as well as a DOG. Stars, they’re not like us at all: it’s totally fine if they bring a dog inside a restaurant.
Mary-Kate Olsen
The Row Two for One 13th Bag

Mary-Kate Olsen was recently spotted shopping at Versace in NYC while carrying a bag of her own design, The Row Two for One 13th Bag. There are multiple iterations of the Two for One, and they are numbered 10 through 13. So far as I can tell, the 13th is not yet available in stores.
Rihanna
Dolce & Gabbana Vanda Fur Clutch
$6,993 via MATCHESFASHION.COM
Ri-Ri recently dined with none other than Naomi Campbell at NYC’s Emilio’s Ballato. She carried a furry, multicolored Dolce & Gabbana bag and wore a patterned D&G caftan for the occasion. If I could’ve been a fly on the wall, I would’ve been studiously taking notes.
Zendaya
Louis Vuitton Twist Bag
Finally, here’s one more celeb at the Louis Vuitton Cruise 2017 show in Rio. It’s Zendaya, carrying an earlier version of the Louis Vuitton Twist than Alessandra Ambrosio’s. Her dress and shoes (not seen here) are also Louis Vuitton.
