The Many Bags of Eva Longoria

May 2, 2013

Eva Longoria isn’t a fashion star in the same way that some of the people we’ve profiled (like Miranda Kerr) are fashion stars, but she’s a celeb who knows exactly what she likes, has a very distinct personal style and rarely deviates from that. In my mind, that’s just as respectable as being in of-the-moment pieces at all times, if not more respectable – it takes backbone and a clear vision of how you want to dress. Naturally, that sense of style extends to her handbag collection as well.

Longoria’s collection contains mostly functional, reasonably neutral bags, but the place where it gets interesting is the brands she chooses – Eva seems to be as big a fan of Coach as she is Hermes, and not a lot of celebs can say that they take such an egalitarian approach to their wardrobes. Both brands (and all the brands in between) look right at home on Longoria’s arm because she obviously knows exactly the look she likes. If you like a celeb who doesn’t bow to trends, you’ll love this collection.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (1) — Eva Longoria has easily the best Coach collection of any celeb we’ve profiled, and she has a particular affection for special Coach bags, like this python option.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (2) — Eva’s turquoise Coach bag sets off her peach summer dress perfectly.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (3) — Eva likes the Coach Kristen bags so much that she has several, like this woven version.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (4) — Eva also has the Coach Kristen in this neutral smooth leather version.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (6) — This Coach bag is another of Eva’s partially exotic collection from the brand.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (7) — Carrying a Coach bag and an Hermes Birkin together is a very Eva Longoria thing to do.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (8) — Beyond Coach, Eva also has quite the love for Gerard Darel bags of all shapes and sizes.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (9) — She loves this Gerard Darel hobo so much that she has it in multiple colors and leathers.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (10) — This particular satchel is what Gerard Darel is known for, so of course Eva has one.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (11) — The casual, luxurious vibe of Gerard Darel’s bags works well with Eva’s traditional style.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (12) — Here’s another of the same shoulder tote shape, this time in regular leather.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (13) — Rounding out Eva’s Gerard Darel collection is this Simple Tote, which could easily pass for more-expensive Bottega Veneta.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (14) — Eva’s handbags so far have been somewhat reasonably priced, but that doesn’t mean her whole collection is – this ostrich Ferragamo tote is a beauty.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (15) — This bicolor Ferragamo satchel fits perfectly with Eva’s classic, jeans-and-a-button-down style.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (16) — Eva’s been a Ferragamo fan for quite some time.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (17) — Eva is the kind of celeb who carries precisely what she feels like carrying, and sometimes that means a Mulberry bag with a velour track suit.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (18) — Sometimes, that also means an exotic Prada bag.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (20) — Eva switches easily between contemporary and ultra high-end bags, like with this Louis Vuitton tote.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (21) — Eva’s Louis Vuitton collection can also go super casual.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (22) — Eva doesn’t seem to love logos, but this Fendi tote is fairly sedate.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (23) — Valentino is a natural fit, and this tote shape is one we already know Eva enjoys.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (24) — Eva tends to like feminine neutrals, which makes this Valentino tote a strong choice.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (25) — What did I tell you about feminine neutrals?

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (26) — Another example of Eva supporting an independent designer!

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (27) — Eva’s also prone to carrying bags from a friend’s line – Victoria Beckham, to be precise.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (28) — Here’s Eva carrying one of Victoria’s most recent designs in python.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (29) — Is this bag Ferragamo? We can’t figure it out.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (30) — Like any celeb, Eva’s got a good bit of Chanel in her closet.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (31) — Ok, maybe more than a little bit of Chanel.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (32) — Eva also has a very serious love for Hermes bags, including several Birkins.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (33) — She digs an occasional Hermes Kelly Bag, too.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (34) — But really, mostly Birkins.

The Many Bags of Eva Longoria (35) — Did we mention that Eva likes her Birkins?

I don’t know why the layouts keep changing for the gallery. It was really slow for me and some pictures didn’t load. It was more enjoyable to look at the photos with the original gallery

I think she’s terrific. Pretty, talented, not often in the tabloids. My idea of what a “star” should be. Her recent cat food commercial is incredible. (And I hate cats!) Who knew she could dance like that??!

I admire people who stay true to their style instead of blindly follow the brand names.

Please bring back the “VIEW ALL” option. It is painful to click on each and every photo (not to mention scroll down on each photo to be able to view the entire photo since the pictures are too big to fit my computer screen). This new format has made me stop going over the “Many Bags of…” feature, which is actually my favorite feature of this blog! (I lasted ’til photo no. 9 for this feature)

Yes, please, bring back the “view all” option. It is such a time saver to have all the pictures in one page. And since the photos are huge, they take time to load.
