Jennifer Lopez is making headlines once again, this time not for her music or acting but for her choice of accessories.
On July 13, 2024, the singer and actress was seen shopping in the Hamptons with her stepdaughter, Violet Affleck, sporting a luxurious Hermès Kelly picnic bag. The bag, made of straw and brown leather, has ignited a social media frenzy due to its staggering price tag of $70,000 for a pre-owned version.
The viral TikTok video showing Lopez with the bag has garnered over 1.2 million views, with many users commenting on the high cost. “Wearing my annual salary,” one user quipped, while another remarked, “You can find that purse in Fiji for $5 on the street.” Additional comments criticized the bag’s design, with one noting, “The purse is just a strip of leather and the basket is basically some dried corn husk in a braid.”
Despite the criticism, some supporters defended Lopez, emphasizing her right to spend her wealth as she pleases. “How on earth is she still so damn beautiful like wow. And 70k is peanuts to her. She’s earned the fortune. And that bag is fire 🔥 😍,” wrote one admirer. Another user commented, “It’s HER money. If I had the money I’d buy it too 🥹😅.”
Lopez’s fashion choices have continued to attract attention. On July 26, 2024, after returning from celebrating her 55th birthday in the Hamptons, Lopez was spotted in Manhattan carrying a $20,000 cream-colored Hermès Birkin Crocodile bag. She paired the bag with a tailored blue blazer, a white shirt, and a sleek bun.
In addition to her high-end Hermès bags, Lopez has also been seen with a $76 Charles & Keith Mini Crescent Hobo Bag, which she carried on Mother’s Day, complemented by a purple floral off-the-shoulder midi dress and wedges.
As the debate continues, it’s clear that Jennifer Lopez’s style choices, particularly her luxury accessories, are as much a topic of conversation as her impressive career achievements.
