Kiera likes vintage!

Once in the hometown of Sheryl Crow, I passed on a $20 T-shirt that used to belong to the singing legend at a fancy little antique store. Doh! Still kicking myself. But you can get a handbag cast-off from a celebrity who donates them to auction to raise money for a good cause.
And then there are the not-so-inspiring celebrity handbag tales...
Oprah vs. HermèsIn summer 2005, it was widely circulated that Oprah was on the doorstep of the Paris Hermès boutique near closing time and was not admitted to shop! Did she expect the store to stay open so she could shop after-hours? Did the store employees not recognize our daytime diva? Pity the commission-based salesperson who didn't know Oprah has the charming and alarming habit of buying 300 or so of her “favorite things” at once and giving them away! Was Oprah carrying a cappuccino in a to-go cup? Oprah says it was a misunderstanding, and that the person with whom she dealt was frosty. Being Oprah, she hosted Hermès CEO Robert Chavez on her show so he could apologize in person ...
WinonaWhen Winona Ryder that she and other movie stars can get a lot of stuff for free. She was busted a few years ago shoplifting. Part of her take: a Dolce & Gabbana purse. No one ever said the lady doesn't have taste!
Bag ladies?
Which two movie stars were termed “bag ladies” by Valentino?
Was it: Mary Kate and Ashley? Drew Barrymore and Avril Lavigne? Julia Roberts and Cameron Diaz? If you guess the latter duo, you are correct! Ouch!
