The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone

We see a lot of Hermès bags around here, but rarely do we see collections as spectacular as those of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone. We previously examined who the British heiresses are and where their seemingly endless supplies of dollars come from, and now we’re here to take a true, in-depth look at as many of the Ecclestones’ bags as we can find. In addition to Hermè, get ready to see a lot of Céline.


Saint Laurent Small Monogramme Matelasse Bag
$1,990 via Saks

Even with as much Hermès as we’re about to see, neither sister tends to carry the brand’s clutches.

I can’t tell you who makes this clutch, mostly because the snakeskin is too bright and shiny to make out the logo hardware, but I thought that was impressive enough in its own right to merit inclusion.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-54


Hermès Crocodile Birkin

This is Bernie Ecclestone, president of Formula 1 Racing and the source of all of Tamara and Petra’s Birkin cash. This is also the best view I could find of Tamara’s gorgeous rose croc Birkin.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-50


Hermès Crocodile Birkin

Okay, let’s get to it. This croc Birkin went to Wimbledon.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-51


Hermès Birkin

A more casual Birkin with a dressier outfit.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-52


Saint Laurent Monogramme Small Shoulder Bag
$1,199 via Overstock.com

When the sisters venture outside of Hermès, they’re both pretty comfortable with Saint Laurent. I’m guessing Petra didn’t get hers from Overstock.com, though.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-48


Hermès Birkin

That’s more like it.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-49


Hermès Himalayan Crocodile Birkin

The sisters, as you might imagine, are big on the rarest of Hermès’ exotic Birkins.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-47


Céline Python Phantom Luggage Tote

Tamara also has a real penchant for Céline totes, specifically the Phantom Luggage. They’re the most well-represented bags in her collection, other than Birkins.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-45


Hermès Himalayan Crocodile Birkin

Petra also has a Himalayan croc Birkin too, obviously. She can’t be left out.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-46


Hermès Kelly Bag

Neither of the sisters are huge Kelly girls, but this one is lovely.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-42


Céline Crocodile Luggage Tote

I believe that this Phantom is real croc instead of embossed, and if it is, it’s the only one of its kind I’ve ever seen.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-43


Bottega Veneta Knot Clutch
$1,450 via Barneys

I’m genuinely curious as to what the girls have against Hermès evening bags and clutches.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-44


Hermès Crocodile Birkin

We could all use some bright red crocodile in our lives from time to time.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-39


Chanel Boy Bag

I expected more Chanel from both of the sisters, and although I suspect they own a good bit of stuff from the brand, they mainly stick to Hermès and Céline when out and about.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-40


Hermès Birkin

Both Petra and Tamara have babies, and both carry even their most expensive and delicate bags in potentially messy mommy moments.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-41


Hermès Crocodile Birkin

This rose-colored Birkin matches that little baby’s rosy cheeks.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-37


Céline Phantom Luggage Tote

This may be the least expensive day bag that Tamara owns. Think about that for a second.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-38


Saint Laurent Monogramme Clutch
$995 via Saks

What is it with the Saint Laurent clutches, though?

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-34


Céline Phantom Suede Luggage Tote

A casual look.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-35


Céline Phantom Luggage Tote

She may buy these in bulk.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-36


Louis Vuitton Dog Carrier
$2,690 via Louis Vuitton

The presence of an LV dog carrier in Tamara’s collection is a strong indication that Hermès doesn’t make one. (We’ll talk about that Birkin in a second.)

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-30


Céline Phantom Luggage Tote

This is just greedy.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-31


Hermès Crocodile Birkin

The subtle hunter green shade of this bag is totally gorgeous and elegant.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-32


Hermès So Black Kelly Bag

Both sisters have their own elusive So Black Alligator Birkins, but Petra also has a Kelly from the extremely limited, sought-after collection.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-33


Hermès Crocodile Birkin

The pale beige of this particular bag really highlights the beautiful texture of the croc.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-29


Céline Python Luggage Tote

This one’s the only non-Phantom of Tamara’s Luggage Totes.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-26


Céline Phantom Suede Luggage Tote

Tamara is 5’8″ and almost always wears enormous heels, so the Phanton Luggage doesn’t look quite as oversized on her as it does most people.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-27


Hermès Crocodile Birkin

Another enviable baby/Birkin combo from Petra.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-28


Hermès So Black Alligator Birkin

Here’s one of those So Blacks we’ve been promising. Pretty, right?

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-23


Hermès So Black Alligator Birkin

Both sisters have their own, of course.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-24


Céline Phantom Luggage Tote

I love this graphic white Phantom’s dark edges.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-25


Hermès Birkin

By now, you know that regular leather is a super low-key look for Petra, especially in a neutral.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-21


Alexander McQueen Studded Skull Clutch
$1,486 via farfetch.com

Things like this don’t happen by accident. They happen because Tamara went into an Alexander McQueen boutique and bought it out, probably. (She also has this McQueen dress in red.)

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-22


Céline Suede Phantom Luggage Tote

Yes, this is different from the other light grey suede Phantom that Tamara has. Slightly.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-19


Hermès Kelly Bag

I really wish there were more Kellys in the sisters’ collections.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-20


Céline Leopard Luggage Tote

The sisters generally stick to solid colors and exotics, but Petra is a bit bolder at times.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-18


Céline Snakeskin Classic Box Bag

Carrying this bag as a clutch is a bit of a non-intuitive choice; it’s a little boxy for that.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-15


Céline Phantom Luggage Tote

The Céline messenger makes a lot of trips to Tamara’s place.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-16


Hermès Crocodile Birkin

My jaw dropped a lot while compiling these photos, but never as far as it did when I found this bag.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-17


Hermès Birkin

Petra is far more likely to pick a bright Birkin than her sister.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-14


Hermès Birkins, Crocodile and Leather

I wish I had a closer photo of the gorgeous, dove grey croc Birkin sitting in front of Tamara.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-11


Hermès Birkin

I could only find one photo of Tamara with this dark teal beauty, but it looks well-loved.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-12


Hermès Birkin

It wouldn’t shock me to find out Tamara had borrowed this bright blue bag from Petra.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-13


Hermès Birkin

It’d be nice to have an attractive guy follow you around and protect you and carry your Helmut Lang shopping bag.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-9


Hermès Birkin

I wonder how Tamara decides when she will or will not use her Birkin charm.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-10


Hermès Birkin

Both sisters stocked up on Hermès’ candy colors while they were available.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-7


Hermès Birkin

Tamara’s friend’s crock Birkin is also worthy of note.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-8


Valentino VaVaVoom Shoulder Bag
$2,045 via Net-a-Porter

Another night out, another night without an Hermès clutch.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-3


Hermès Kelly

If an Ecclestone reads this, I’d appreciate it if y’all could buy a bunch of Kellys, and then I could do another one of these posts just about them.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-4


Hermès Birkin

Another vivid candy Birkin.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-5


Hermès Birkin

A Birkin and sweats is what Petra appears to wear almost every day.

The Many Bags of Petra and Tamara Ecclestone-1


Balenciaga Suede City Bag
$1,985 via Barneys

Petra went through a phase for a couple of weeks where she carried Balenciaga, but she quickly reverted back to her old favorite: Hermès.

holy crap. Net worth of their purse collection?

Averil

I have a feeling whatever number I have in my head probably needs a few more 0s appended to the end…

Stephanie

combined their wardrobe collection must be worth over at least 50 Mil *sigh*

kn

that shiny snakeskin golden clutch is Chanel i think…

Amanda Mull

That’s what I was thinking too, but was unable to confirm.

kn

I actually remember seeing that a couple of seasons ago on the Chanel Website… I remember cuz it just seemed so ridiculously shiny…

SpringandMercer

My first thought was Chanel as well.

hectorrobertocontrerasmiranda

it’s a Pochette du soir en phyton métalisé from the spring summer collection and is still on the website http://www.chanel.com/en_US/fashion/products/handbags/g/s.metallic-python-clutch.14S.A92335Y0871397000.sto.eve.html

as

Humphries Frosino

blonde_closet

It’s interesting that Petra had, I don’t know if it’s defunct now, her own handbag/clutch line but not a single photo of her carrying one. They were ridiculously over priced and severely underwhelming!

dnfl

Don’t know much about them, but at least they seem to act and dress classy! Not like some heiresses in the states… Haha

Kim

OMG Tamara loves the phantom a bit too much !

calicat

For all their money, they don’t look very happy or healthy.

Newsworthy

I am happy that I don’t have the slightest clue as to who they are.

sheena

tamara have the weirdest bodyshape

Averil

She has almost no hips and an unusually broad rib cage, so she looks super top heavy in the bodycon dresses, suit jackets and tight tees. But she looks super cute and proportioned the rest of the time, especially in the summery dresses with the denim jacket, really pretty look

Rosa Lily

It’s like a race between celebrities/heiresses, etc on who can obtain the most Birkins. Yes, it’s an elegant and desirable bag but when there is an excessive display of all the colors and textures that are known to exist by one person the bag loses its popular appeal.

Ashlee

Agreed! It’s like “I get it…you have money. Why don’t you show us that you have a mind and choose more than 2 purses to carry.”

felicia hsb

wow best birkin collection…i never get sick at looking at those gorgeous pieces! especially that aqua/teal kelly bag 🙂

Lea

Very strange
This Tamara person’s got a huge monster on her bras….

kay

The comments on these pictures are so obnoxious. Who cares if they favour Saint Laurent clutches?

Einstein

yeah I know.not just saint Laurent, valentine and bottega as well. hermes is just overrated, referring to those comments. well, we have our own preferences, right? and let them make their choices.

whizzcheng

This should be called “the many birkins of…”. I didnt enjoy this entry as much as the others. No variety at all

lovethiss

not tamara’s friend, that is petra:) you can tell by the cartier bracelet and the pale croc bag obvssssss

fashion.foward

the gold python clutch is Chanel, I’m sure of it, i saw it before in another color

fashion.foward

see

Marnie

They have nice expensive bags boring bag, to go along with their boring uninspired style.

ahhhsoneo

so what if they don’t carry Hermes evening clutches. Your comments there are totally unnecessary.

chris

Who??

Me

It is only a matter of time before they get their own reality show, if they have not already

Konjo

I believe Tamara had one

Ashlee

I know I’m going to get hate mail for this comment but I truly don’t understand having 30 versions of the same purse. 2 or 3 sure that’s understandable but show some variety in your style and tastes! If you have that much money you have so many options!

Adrianne

She should have had someone tell her that the stretch on the pattern across her chest of that McQ dress looks horrible!!!

JYK98

Wow, do they want to single-handedly exterminate crocodiles?

Fiona-Brasil

IMHO if I had that obscene amount of money I would buy three croc bags , 2 sizes of Birkins ( a 35 all black and a 30 Himalayan ) and one Kelly in a vibrant color. Too much of the same , depreciates a rather rare bag…

sahimster

Have you considered – seeing as Kelly bags are incredibly elusive – to compile a list of the best ones you’ve seen on celebs?

D

It’s a Chanel, also available in black

VI_TORIA

Beautiful style and handbags too, but when something become too accessible it loose a little bit of unique, not saying it’s a cheap handbag but everyone who has money can buy it and now it’s seen everywhere too much that they had to invent colors to make it more exclusive…but it’s not that classic anymore, I think the traditional colours were the best!

Iris

These kind of people are so boring. Yeah they have tons of money, but zero style. It’s all about how expensive the stuff is. Snooze.

Lisa

I have to say I really don’t like the Himalaya Birkin and I really don’t like the pink croc with gold HW. And the ripped jeans with a huge hole in them are so passe!

Eva

Petra’s SO black croc Kelly is stunning! If I had so much money to spend on a single bag I’d definitely buy a Kelly like that one.

Start working at home with Google! It’s by-far the best job I’ve had. Last Wednesday I got a brand new BMW since getting a check for $6474 this – 4 weeks past. I began this 8-months ago and immediately was bringing home at least $77 per hour. I work through this link, go? to tech tab for work detail

You also forgot to add Tamara carrying around a black medium goatskin Givenchy Antigona.
