J.Law and Ashley Olsen’s $33K Bag Is Chicer Than a Margaux

If there were ever two people who could convince me to spend $33,000 on a handbag (instead of, say, a car, a down payment on an apartment, or a monthslong trip to Italy), it would be Ashley Olsen and Jennifer Lawrence. Both have taste in spades, and both have been spotted carrying a bag that retailed for exactly that amount: The Row's extremely rare alligator Lady Bag. Is it chicer than the brand's far more famous Margaux bag? I'd argue yes, with the exclusivity factor only adding to the top-handle bag's appeal. And given the fact that both Olsen and Lawrence have carried their Lady Bags several times over the years, I wouldn't be surprised if they agreed with me.

Every time the Lady Bag makes an appearance, it shakes things up in the bag world. So when Lawrence went on a dinner date with Dakota Johnson in New York City this week, her brown alligator Lady Bag in tow, in-the-know fashion people got excited. It's not exactly the type of bag you tote around just anywhere. It's for special occasions, and a night out on the town with your girlfriends is certainly a worthy calendar event. She paired the bag with an all-black outfit, including a Lemaire T-shirt dress (that's currently on sale at Shopbop), a long black coat, and The Row's Canal flats.
