New York Fashion Week is happening now (this seems like one of the longer Fashion Weeks, no?), and countless celebrities are being ferried through JFK on their way to front rows all over town. Givenchy and Hermès seem to be the celeb brands of choice for all NYFW travel-related purposes this week. While there are beautiful specimens from both brands within, I’m hoping for little more celeb handbag brand diversity over the final few days of NYFW. Fingers crossed. To see some truly exceptional handbags from NYFW’s sidewalks and Spring 2016 runways, check out all of Vlad’s Fashion Week coverage.
Jessica Alba
Chanel Jersey 2.55 Flap Bag
There’s more variety in Jessica Alba‘s handbag collection than in most other celeb bag collections put together. Case in point: last week we saw Jessica in NY with a lovely little Loeffler Randall Mini Backpack which retails for less than $400, and here she is this week for NYFW with a much more upscale Chanel Flap.
Khloé Kardashian
Givenchy Antigona Bag
$2,280 via Saks
As you might’ve heard, the Kardashian-Jenners all convened together during Fashion Week to launch their new suite of lifestyle sites and apps with a “Meet the Developer” panel at The Apple Store. Here’s Khloé on her way to NYC via LAX with a buttery beige leather Givenchy Antigona.
Kourtney Kardashian
Hermès Birkin
And here’s Kourtney, doing the same thing with baby No. 3 and a black pebbled leather Birkin in tow. Little Reign’s infant fashion and hair game is pretty strong.
Kris Jenner
Hermès Himalayan Crocodile Kelly Bag
Back in LA, momager Kris Jenner used her alone time to shop for a new bed. She’s carrying a ridiculously luxe Hermès Himalayan Crocodile Kelly Bag. The Kardashian-Jenners lay claim to a few Himalayan croc Hermès bags, and you can find out what other celebs own these extremely rare bags in 63 Jaw-Dropping Exotic Handbags and the Celebrities Who Carried Them.
Laverne Cox
Hermès Kelly Bag
Here’s Laverne Cox, leaving a private event at Cafe Clover in NYC with her own supple black leather Hermès Kelly Bag. Laverne walked (and literally twirled on) the runway for the American Heart Association’s “Go Red for Women” fashion show last Thursday evening.
Rihanna
MCM Cosmetic Train Case
$1,395 via Shopbop
Rihanna is in that bundle somewhere, we promise. She’s carrying a dainty MCM Cosmetic Train Case as she arrives at LAX. Despite the fact that Ri-Ri threw a by-all-reports INSANE block party to kick-off NYFW, she did not attend a single show this year, and she went home early. She’s over it, you guys.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley
Givenchy Nightingale Bag
$2,450 via Neiman Marcus
Here’s Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, also cruising through LAX with a black leather Givenchy Nightingale. Both old and newly redesigned versions of the Nightingale have been getting a fair amount of love from celebs all of a sudden.
Sofia Vergara
Hermès Birkin
And here’s Sofia Vergara, arriving for an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live with–what else–a chocolate brown Hermès Birkin. (Or maybe it’s maroon? The lighting makes it hard to tell.) She’s decorated her Birkin with a Louis Vuitton keychain, because why not?
