Nicole has reportedly spent over $18,000 on her designer handbag addiction.

Nicole, 26, is apparently so obsessed with Balenciaga’s handbag range she has one in every color.
A source close to Nicole said: “She just feels like they go with every outfit she wears - whether it be in the day or at night. She likes the Part Timer bags, which cost $1500 each, the Weekender ones which cost a fortune and the City bags too.
“In total she has 12 Balenciaga bags, and has spent a small fortune.

Okay, huh? Is that it??? 18 grand on a handbag collection is not at all that much for a celeb, especially one who is addicted to handbags! She's a multi-millionaire unless I'm mistaken, and I know she's probably not nearly as wealthy as her friend or ex-friend Paris, but still, I would expect a lot more than 18 grand for it to be such a deal that they would make it into an article. What do you think? Now, I don't really care if she's spent from only a few grand to 18 grand or 40 grand, it's that they made it a headline, an article, as if it's something surprising to really write about. I would expect a much larger sum if it's a wealthy celeb we're reading an article about here in terms of how much they've spent.
 
i highly doubt that's it, i thought she had a collection of vintage chanels and at least a couple birkins as well, not to mention all the bags i don't know about. it'll be at least double that i'd imagine. $18k isn't that far off what 12 balenciaga bags would cost, maybe a little more depending on the exact ones.
 
yes, i think they're referring to her balenciagas and that's all.

i'm sure it made a headline because outside of tpf, 18K on handbags is A LOT of money to spend on such a thing.
 
Just read the headline again and it says OVER $18,000 so that could definitely include her entire collection; just means she's spent a minimum of $18,000. People, outside of tpf, would probably go ballistic if the headline said she'd spent over $300,000 for her handbag collection, lol
 
Well, "over an x amount" usually implies a little over it, i.e. some tens some twenties or some change depending on what you talk about.
You guys are right though, outside of TPF, that may be a staggering amount of money on bags. It would make more sense if that's just on her Balenciagas though.

some of them are her mother's who probably brought them brand new back in the 80s.


and $18k is not a small fortune, its just a large amount.
 
fakes? really? :wtf:

i guess paparazzos ran out of headlines... $18K? can't believe they find that amusing, especially in Hollywood. Besides, you can pay well over that amount for only ONE bag, that plenty of celebrtities carry so...
 
Thats just her balenciagas she does have birkins +chanels.....wow no way? where would she get the fakes from? didnt her BFF paris have fakes too?
