Hermes Bags & Sports? [VIDEO]

Hermes's theme for fall is "A Sporting Life," so, to drive that point home, the brand released a series of videos featuring their luxury goods playing sports.

Fancy sports! Like, croquet:


And French sports, like pétanque:


And ping-pong, which Hermes plates are very good at, while Hermes bags prefer to watch.


Wouldn't want to scuff that fine leather.

Kobe Bryant's Wife is Soooo Over Hermes Birkins & Chanel 2.55s

Vanessa Bryant married Kobe Bryant when she was still in high school, stuck by his side through a cheating scandal, and is now publicly trying to make it work after already filing for divorce. With all of that hullabaloo surrounding her personal life, she just opened up to New York Magazine and talked about how she's soooo over luxury handbags.

You need to read this outrageous excerpt for yourself:

I'm not really a handbag person anymore. I've collected Birkin bags, Chanel 2.55 jumbo flap bags, and the Marc Jacobs Stephen Sprouse collection for Louis Vuitton since I was a teenager. But now, as they say, everyone and their mom is buying a Birkin or a regular size 2.55 bag in black, taupe, or beige. I've been sticking to a magenta suede Proenza Schouler bag.

I can't say that I hate her for the statement. Who wants something that everyone has/had? Thats the point of exclusive items for the elite. I wouldn't want the same bag that a stripper in Atl could afford. It's like having the taxes drop on your property because everyone who has bought a piece is so common.

HAHA!

Fashion People Freak Out Over Bad Weather - Summer Storm Edition

As many you guys can tell by the number of Celine bags, I blog about or Tweet and Re-Tweet about, I am totally in love with CELINE BAGS. My obsession began over at Hermes, with the Birkin bags, but now I have morphed into a complete Celine Bag fanatic! I only wish they came in as many colors as the Birkin bags.

Birkin's colors are compared to FORD Motor Company's car color scheme, while Celine bags keep it more upscale in the monotone muted tones of a classier vehicle like a Mercedes. You would never paint a Mercedes orange, but it'd be a sight to see.

ANYWAY all that to say, there was a horrible rain situation in New York this past week, and the fashion world FREAKED! Check out my favorite reaction-models Selita Ebanks and Chrissy Teigen's freak out over Chrissy's Celine handbag getting wet.

The Best Dressed of the Week - September 23, 2011

Any week that kicks off with the Emmy Awards is bound to be filled with ultra-glam style. Sure enough, it was a white hot week for red carpet fashion! Catch up with your favorite stars and pick the best and worst dressed of the week!

There are no two ways about it: Sofia Vergara looked smokin' hot in her curvaceous coral one-shoulder gown by Vera Wang. Headed into an Emmys afterparty at West Hollywood's Fig and Olive, Sofia stopped to give us a smile and a view of those killer chandelier earrings!

Va-va-voom! Candice Swanepoel was a knock-out at the Moet & Chandon Etoile awards in a long-sleeve lace gown by Tom Ford. While the layered black lace made the look ultra-elegant, there was no shortness of sex appeal. Sheer cut-outs and an intricate bustier were perfectly sultry for the occasion.

Leave it to Rosie Huntington-Whiteley to bring on the Old Hollywood Glamour! For the Moet & Chandon Etoile award ceremony in London the stunning actress donned an elegant white gown with sheer sleeves and a deep-v. An enviable red pout and retro waves perfected Rosie's vintage look.

No one travels in style quite like Kim Kardashian. We spotted Kim K. leaving a Manhattan hotel in an ultra-chic ensemble. She donned black high-waisted pants, a printed silk blouse and a classic white Birkin.

An expectant Beyonce wowed at the launch of her new fragrance in a feathered Lanvin gown. The silk halter gown skimmed her curves, while a jeweled neckline added the perfect dose of shine. Long two-tone waves and radiant skin finished off the winning look.

Liv Tyler opted for a dramatic look at the New York City Ballet Gala in a stunning strapless Stella McCartney gown. With intricate black embroidery and sheer panels, the dress was an exotic choice for the leggy actress. Old Hollywood curls and green drop earrings were glam accents to Liv's stunning style.

Cassie’s Turquoise Birkin Bag

Dope fashionista Cassie was spotted in Manhattan moments after leaving lunch with friends at the Italian restaurant Bar Pitti in West Village. Although, her look was laid back dressed in all black wearing stretch pants and a tank top, she rocked a bright turquoise Hermes Birkin bag on her arm. Would you rock it?

KarDASHian Loves Her Birkin's!!

Named for legendary beauty Jane Birkin by the venerable house of Hermès, a Birkin bag—as well as the Kelly, named for Princess Grace—is the most iconic of all handbags. And at more than $10,000 a pop, it is also a one-per-lifetime luxury. Unless of course you are Kim Kardashian...check out her collection!

Come Spring 2010, Kim lightened up again, shopping at West Hollywood's Intermix with a beige Birkin on her arm.

In September 2010, Kim's new orange Kelly bag was so big and so bright it seemed to arrive at LAX even before her thigh-high leather heels!
