My head is still spinning from all the Met Gala coverage, but we can’t forget about the days before and after, when celebrities sharpen their laser focus on the big event/decompress from the stress and grandeur of it all. Really, Met Gala Monday is the capstone of a solid two week period of celeb-spotting. Hair and makeup appointments, fittings, after-parties, hangover brunches—each little thing requires a new outfit and a new bag selection, and we’re all about it.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was seen carrying this white Bottega Veneta Pouch Bag ahead of the Met Gala in NYC. Have you seen this bag before? It’s like an extremely elegant laundry sack.
Taylor Hill
Model Taylor Hill was spotted leaving the Mark Hotel in NYC with a cute, pink Loewe Elephant Bag.
Maria Sharapova
Maria Sharapova also attended the Met Gala this year. She was seen doing a little shopping the following Wednesday with a Burberry Small Grace Bag.
Rita Ora
Rita Ora rarely misses a Met Gala. She was snapped out and about in the days that followed wearing a Dior Saddle Belt Bag.
Priyanka Chopra Jonas
Priyanka Chopra carried this little silver Stalvey Mini Top Handle Bag to a Met Gala after-party. Her Met Gala ensemble was much different, as you might suspect.
Anne Hathaway
Anne Hathaway was seen leaving a hotel with a tricolor Marni Trunk Bag in NYC.
Nina Dobrev
Nina Dobrev was spotted post-Met Gala wearing some very appropriate “the morning after” sunglasses and carrying a bright red Louis Vuitton Square Bag.
Florence Welch
Finally, here’s Florence Welch (of Florence and the Machine), carrying a Gucci GG Vintage Shoulder Bag ahead of the Met Gala.
