Jennifer Lopez is demonstrating that her summer wardrobe is in order—literally!
On Saturday, July 13, the singer and actress was photographed shopping in the Hamptons with her stepdaughter Violet Affleck, carrying a Hermès Kelly picnic bag made of straw and brown leather.
A TikTok user took a video of Lopez, 55, departing a business with the bag perched on her arm, mentioning that a pre-owned version of the bag costs $70,000. The video has now gone viral, garnering 1.2 million views and prompting remarks about the bag’s high price.
“Wearing my annual salary,” someone said. “You can find that purse in Fiji for $5 on the street,” another comment said.
“Omg, the price is ridiculous; the purse is just a strip of leather, and the basket is some dried corn husk in a braid 🤦🏽♀️😆,” remarked an additional person.

While some criticized the bag’s price, others defended the singer’s right to spend her own money.
“How on earth is she still so darn beautiful? Wow. And $70,000 is peanuts to her. She earned her money.” One user commented, “And that bag is fire.”
“It’s her money,” someone said. “If I had the money, I’d buy it too 🥹😅,” a remark read.
“She can buy whatever she damn wants, too,” someone else said. “JLo is gorgeous, no matter what anyone says,” another person said.
However, this is not Lopez’s first Hermès bag that has received recent notice.
Lopez exchanged her luggage for a $20,000 cream-colored Hermès Birkin Crocodile bag when she returned to Manhattan on Friday, July 26, after spending her 55th birthday in the Hamptons.
She accessorized the purse with a fitted blue blazer over a classic white shirt, an effortless bun, and a glossy pout.
In addition to her high-end bags, the mother flaunted her $76 Charles & Keith Mini Crescent Hobo Bag on Mother’s Day, paired with a purple floral off-the-shoulder midi dress and shoes.
