By “yesteryear”, I mean, of course, 2014. Two of 2015’s hottest new designer bags continued to gain steam this week (not going to name names; all will be revealed within), and a few of our faves from last year appeared on the arm/general vicinity of Karlie Kloss, who made it home from Paris Fashion Week. PFW certainly felt like it was never-ending from where I’m sitting, so I can only imagine the kind of Fashion Week hangover Karlie has.
Dakota Johnson
Alexander McQueen Legend Bag
$2,195 via Saks
Here’s Dakota Johnson entering JFK with the hottest celeb bag pick of the past two weeks, the Alexander McQueen Legend. I can’t help but note that the rest of Dakota’s look here is a little more “pre-S&M Anastasia” than usual.
Elsa Hosk
Model Elsa Hosk was recently spotted shopping in Soho with a snakeskin mystery bag. We don’t know who makes this bag, but if you do, please indulge us in the comments.
Grace Gealey
Gucci Bright Diamante Tote
$2,200 via Gucci
This is actress Grace Gealey (she’s Boo Boo Kitty on Empire), leaving The View studios with a cheery yellow Gucci tote. I have yet to watch a single episode of Empire, which puts me in an increasingly tiny minority. [Ed. Note: Definitely watch it, it’s awesome and it’s on Hulu.]
Karlie Kloss
Mansur Gavriel Backpack
$795 via Bergdorf Goodman
Coach Borough Bag
Shop via Coach
Karlie Kloss looks especially glad to be getting back home to her NYC apartment after a lengthy Paris Fashion Week. She’s using a black Mansur Gavriel Backpack and a black Coach Borough Bag to ferry her stuff around.
Mariah Carey
Louis Vuitton Soft Lockit Bag
Mariah Carey recently dined at Dan Tana’s in West Hollywood with a black Louis Vuitton Soft Lockit Bag. Karlie’s Coach Borough Bag and Mariah’s Louis Vuitton Soft Lockit were two of our faves from last year. Ah, 2014 nostalgia.
Melissa Rivers
Tom Ford Alix Shoulder Bag
$1,990 via Neiman Marcus
Here’s Melissa Rivers, charging through a mob of paps at LAX with an extremely attractive Tom Ford. I can’t get enough of Tom’s gratuitous use of zippers, I really can’t. (Though our readers inform me that some of them are actually functional! Yes, I read all of your comments!)
Reese Witherspoon
Valentino Large Rockstud Tote
$3,795 via Net-a-Porter
Reese Witherspoon waged the same war at LAX with a beautiful Valentino tote. Somehow, that rich burgundy hue manages to tone down the Rockstuds’ general rock and roll vibe.
Rihanna
Christian Dior Diorama Bag
RiRi was just introduced as the new face of Dior, so we’ll be seeing her carry a lot more Dior in months to come. (Here she is with the brand new Dior Diorama.) Shockingly, she also happens to be the first ever woman of color to hold this position for the legendary fashion house.
