Paris Hilton Does Handbags

Posted on: Jul 13

She's a reality TV star, a pop siren, and of course a socialite. Now Paris Hilton has added handbag designer to her resume, with the release of her new accessories line.

With her taste for Linea Pelle and JJ Winters, I suppose it's no surprise that Paris has put her name to some purses. The biggest surprise is how ordinary these are. Forget the exotics; there's not even a hint of genuine leather here. I suppose that's a good thing for bargain hunters, but I had hoped for a little more of the luxury that is synonymous with the Hilton name.

Perhaps this is another example of a star simply adding their moniker to the brand, without putting in any of the leg work. I'm pretty sure Paris would never tote the handbags in her Beach 2009, Dubai 2009, or My Collection ranges.
