As the old saying goes, two is a coincidence but three is a trend. As of now, we’ve recently spotted two lovely models carrying the exact same Mansur Gavriel bag. Last week, it seemed like the random whim of Gigi Hadid, but this week, Karlie Kloss is also carrying the Lady Bag. This might be a coincidence–after all, the brand has a Soho pop-up boutique open right now, which makes it easier than ever for downtown Manhattan residents to buy the brand’s bags. Or, it might be more purposeful–we’ll wait to see if any more of these bags pop up, but we know that free celebrity handbags are among the favorite topics of reader conspiracy theories. Meanwhile, celebs are dragging out some of their most exquisite designer totes for holiday travel.
Alessandra Ambrosio
Hermès Evelyne Bag
Lo and behold, Alessandra Ambrosio has swapped out her Birkins for this Hermès Evelyne Bag this week. Alessandra has been on a serious Birkin kick, but she was recently spotted carrying this bag while doing a little shopping in LA.
Gigi Hadid

Here’s Gigi Hadid, leaving her apartment in NYC with the aforementioned black leather Mansur Gavriel Lady Bag, which we saw her carrying last week as well.

And here’s Karlie Kloss, leaving her West Village apartment with the same bag as Gigi.
Kate Beckinsale
Givenchy Pandora Bag
$1,940 via Net-a-Porter
Meanwhile, at LAX, Kate Beckinsale is rich and established enough to carry whatever she wants, regardless of the whims of brands. This week she has smartly chosen a washed sheepskin leather Givenchy Pandora Bag.
Kenya Moore

Chanel Flap Bag

Speaking of sheepskin, Real Housewife Kenya Moore is currently favoring this deep red puffy lambskin version of the Chanel Wallet on Chain Bag. It takes up a lot more visual real estate than the regular version.
Lily Tomlin
MICHAEL Michael Kors Jet Set Tote
$298 via Macy’s
Here’s a definite PurseBlog first: it’s freaking Lily Tomlin, carrying a smart natural leather MICHAEL Michael Kors Jet Set Tote at LAX, where she is actively jet-setting.
Reese Witherspoon
Saint Laurent Monogramme Matelasse Crossbody Bag
$2,590 via Barneys
Paps recently caught up with a festive-looking Reese Witherspoon and her husband at Brentwood Country Mart, one of the preferred grocery shopping spots of the stars. Reese is carrying a Saint Laurent Monogramme Matelasse Crossbody Bag.

Here’s gymnastics champ and sports commentator Tara Lipinski, trying to wield all of her luggage through LAX and have a phone conversation. Nearby, a bunch of (presumably) grown men stand around and take photos of this event for posterity. Tara is carrying a bright green Valentino Rockstud Tote.
