Handbags
By the classic definition a handbag is a small bag, with or
without a strap or handle, used by women to carry personal
items such as keys, money, and cosmetics. It is also known as,
or called, a purse. These handbags, however, defy all definition.
Ranging in size from large to small, designed by well-known
designers such as Hoofbeats, Samantha Kingz, and Brahmin
and crafted of materials from leather to metal to silk, these
bags are not defined by ordinary standards. Rather, these bags
are defined by the women who once owned them. Women who
are celebrities and socialites in Hollywood. Our newest addition
to the auction line-up, the Hollywood, Celebrity and Society
Handbags Collection features handbags that have been
carefully selected by their famous owners and donated to The
Race To Erase MS so that we may present them to you for
auction. Stars such as Scarlett Johansson and Sarah Jessica
Parker, known for their fashion flair, are often the ones who
define a look for an entire season. Do not miss out on this
wonderful opportunity to own a rare crossover piece – an
iconic celebrity essential.
