The Beverly Hills Barneys location and The Grove continued to be bombarded with celebrity shoppers armed with top-notch bags well into the waning hours of 2015. In fact, I don’t know how normal, everyday people could successfully navigate to the pretzel dog stand without tripping over a Bella Thorne or a Kelly Rowland. This long run of celebrities shopping in broad daylight has been a special treat, and I’ll be a little sad when they go back to their normal, self-promoting routines.
Amanda Seyfried
Givenchy Magnolia Mini Pandora Bag
$1,150 via Neiman Marcus
Here’s Amanda Seyfried, leaving lunch at Gracias Madre in LA with one of her favorite bags, a Givenchy Magnolia Mini Pandora Bag. Amanda has quite the Givenchy collection, and you can see many of her best bags in The Many Bags of Amanda Seyfried.
Bella Thorne
Chanel Suede Patchwork Drawstring Bag
Bella Thorne was recently spotted carrying an unusual patchwork Chanel at one of LA’s biggest celeb shopping hotspots, The Grove. Like Amanda with her Givenchy, Bella is a particular fan of Chanel.
Elle Fanning
Miu Miu Shoulder Bag
Shop Miu Miu via Net-a-Porter
Elle Fanning has one of the most enviable handbag collections of any 17-year-old anywhere. Here she is leaving Barneys in Beverly Hills with a lovely multicolored Miu Miu Shoulder Bag. You can tour the vast handbag collections of the Fanning sisters in The Many Bags of Dakota and Elle Fanning.

LA readers, I would love to hear your best stories about celeb encounters (or near-encounters) at The Grove, because this is getting ridiculous. Here’s Dame Helen Mirren, doing a little shopping with one of my favorite bags of 2015, the Giorgio Armani Classic Satchel.
Kate Moss
Louis Vuitton SC Satchel

Christmas has a way of bringing everyone together, even exes. Here’s Kate Moss out with her ex Jefferson Hack (not pictured here) on Christmas day. Hack is the father of her daughter Lila Grace.
Michelle Trachtenberg
Balenciaga Giant Covered City Bag
Shop via Balenciaga
And here’s yet another celeb leaving Barneys in Beverly Hills. This time it’s actress Michelle Trachtenberg, carrying an earthy green Balenciaga bag from several years back.
Mindy Kaling
Goyard St. Louis Tote
Paps recently spotted Mindy Kaling flying out of LAX with a Goyard St. Louis Tote, which seems like an extremely appropriate choice for Mindy. FYI, Goyard made our list of The 12 Best Celebrity Bag Moments of 2015, and we expect the brand’s popularity to continue well into 2016 and beyond.
Zoe Saldana
Louis Vuitton Dora Bag

We’ll end this celeb handbag roundup with Zoe Saldana, ducking out of LAX with her husband and a beautiful brick red and black Louis Vuitton Dora Bag.
