This week, everyone from Jessica Alba to Catherine Zeta-Jones was snapped at the airport, and they were ALL carrying handbags valued in excess of $2K. Hey, it’s awards season, and you can’t let TSA catch you with anything reasonably affordable whilst you’re zipping in from Paris Couture Week or exotic destinations unknown, you know? That would just make you seem too relatable. Plus, we know what (handbag brand) Kanye West likes, and we’re pretty sure Kim is into it too.
Catherine Zeta-Jones
Chanel Classic Flap Bag
Hermès Birkin
Catherine Zeta-Jones was recently spotted at JFK carrying a luxe black Chanel Classic Flap Bag and an Hermès Birkin. Because why should you ever be forced to choose between the two?
Jessica Alba
Saint Laurent Sac de Jour Bag
$3,490 via Net-a-Porter
On the opposite coast, Jessica Alba arrived at LAX with a bright red Sac de Jour. Jessica is very partial to top-handled totes, and you can take an in-depth look at her most recent handbag acquisitions in The Many Bags of Jessica Alba, Part 2.
Kanye West
Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Duffel Bag
$3,800 via Saks
We’ve heard a lot about what Kanye West likes or maybe does not like this week, but I think it’s safe to assume he’s very into Bottega Veneta. Here he is exiting LAX with a sleek, woven black leather Bottega Veneta duffel.
Kelly Rowland
Chanel Quilted Shoulder Bag
Here’s Kelly Rowland, leaving The Nice Guy in West Hollywood with a grey Chanel Quilted Shoulder Bag. It’s possible Kelly took Amanda’s post about her carrying the same two bags for three years a bit personally, because she’s carried nothing but new bags ever since.
Kendall Jenner
Givenchy Lucrezia Bag
$1,295 via Barneys
Kendall Jenner recently returned home from Paris Couture Week, where she carried Givenchy, Givenchy, and more Givenchy. Here she is heading home from LAX, still carrying Givenchy, of course. This time her bag of choice is a Givenchy Lucrezia.
Nicky Hilton
Chanel Classic Flap Bag
Nicky Hilton recently traded blizzard-worn NYC for the warmer climes of Beverly Hills, and we can’t say we blame her. Paps spotted her carrying this Chanel Classic Flap while out and about with friends.
Saoirse Ronan
Saint Laurent Sac de Jour Tote
$2,890 via Net-a-Porter
Here’s Oscar-nominated actress Saoirse Ronan, leaving LAX with a black leather Sac de Jour, which was an incredibly popular choice for celebs at LAX this week.
Sofia Vergara
Jimmy Choo Ciggy Clutch
Shop via Jimmy Choo
And finally, here’s Sofia Vergara, walking the red carpet at the SAG Awards with a hot pink Jimmy Choo Ciggy Clutch that perfectly matches her custom Vera Wang Collection gown.
