Handbag Blind Item!

I can’t be the only one here that enjoys a good blind item – they’re a fun mix of puzzle and scandal that I find just so intriguing. Mostly they involve closeted actors that are in danger of being un-closeted or actresses with unfortunate drug issues, so it’s rare that we get to talk about them on BagThatStyle (or any of our sister sites, for that matter). But today? Today we’ve got a special treat for people that love handbags AND gossip – a handbag blind item!

This one comes from Star Magazine, and I suspect that it’s about a celeb that’s somewhat of a BagThatStyle regular: “Which fame-hungry starlet and her hubby gift publishing people with $5000 Hermes bags to make sure they stay in the headlines? Don’t worry, Star can’t be bought.” Considering that celeb weeklies usually have no idea what handbags cost, the Hermes bags in question could be anything from a Garden Tote to a Birkin. The more interesting question, however, is which celeb duo wants the headlines bad enough to give out free Hermes bags? My money is on the lady pictured at left and her flesh-bearded Worse Half. Give us your guesses in the comments.
