Some celebs couldn’t wait until the holidays to gift themselves the latest, barely off-the-runway handbags this year. And who can blame them? The holidays are a high-profile time, and you want to be armed with your best bags–the ones that communicate to your extended family: Yes, I’m doing quite well, thank you! Or: Yes, I’m in a lot of credit card debt, thank you! (Some of your people can read subtext.) Family togetherness can be brutal, and you want to come prepared. Will your aunt really judge you for wearing something from three seasons ago to Thanksgiving? (Or, on the flip side, will she maybe just judge you for not buying all your clothes at Target?) I truly hope not. But if you find yourself in one of those kinds of families, take inspiration from these celebs.
Iman
The legendary Iman carried this exotic Hermès Kelly Bag to an event in NYC.
Jenna Dewan
Jenna Dewan chose this red Chloé Drew Bag for a trip to the farmers market with her daughter in LA.
Iskra Lawrence
British model Iskra Lawrence was spotted swinging this camo Valentino Rockstud Bag around while doing a little shopping in Beverly Hills.
Brittany Snow
Brittany Snow also made a trip to the farmers market last weekend, and her bag de jour was, of course, a black Saint Laurent Sac de Jour Nano.
Hailey Baldwin
It looks like Hailey Baldwin was on the shortlist to receive a brand spanking new Celine Medium C Bag, and I’m not jealous AT ALL. This is a quilted version of Hedi Slimane’s first bag for Celine.
Rosamund Pike
Here’s Rosamund Pike (a badge of quality in any film, BTW!) making a bold statement with a Chloé Tess Bag as she arrives in LAX.
Rumer Willis
Rumer Willis was spotted hanging out with friends in Beverly Hills with a Céline Nano Luggage Tote on her arm.
Bella Hadid
Finally, here’s Bella Hadid with an armful of fresh flowers and a pink, vintage Prada Nylon Mini Bag in hand in NYC.
