Salma Hayek Is Hermès’s Weapon Of Choice Against LVMH
By now you probably know that LVMH is trying to take over Hermès. Despite stating that “LVMH has no intention of launching a tender offer, taking control of Hermès, nor seeking board representation,” Hermès thinks LVMH’s intentions are less than noble. Yeah, they’re pissed. So in a move that said “F off, Bernard!” Hermès invited Salma Hayek to a cocktail party celebrating the opening of its Left Bank megastore.

WATCH: Hermès’ Fingerboarding Video Stars A Severed Hand
Skateboards and Hermès are two of our favorite things.

Chanel Purses Expected To See 20% Price Increase

Charity Event Raises Good Money And Gives Good Bags
It was a sea of pink on Manhattan’s upper east side Thursday evening as three-hundred New York City ladies bid on more than 100 beautiful designer handbags to raise money for women’s cancer prevention.

Hermes Birkin Bag Waitlist Gets The Axe
We were wondering why Lady Gaga was so easily persuaded to graffiti all over her white Birkin Bag with a Sharpie while in Tokyo.
