Keiko Kitagawa, Mei Nagano, Takahata… Popular actresses with “tasteful bags
A beautiful woman with a small face running frantically with a large black bag slung over her shoulder. It was June of this year, near Kaminarimon (Thunder Gate) in Asakusa, Tokyo, during the filming of the drama “Rikokatsu” (TBS).
The person running is Keiko Kitagawa (35), the heroine. She is playing the role of an editor of a fashion magazine, and is beautifully dressed in a striped shirt and a long kimari-colored skirt.
“Kitagawa, who just gave birth to her first child last September, has been training at a personal gym for celebrities and has returned to work. Her husband, DAIGO, and Kitagawa’s parents are also supporting her in raising the child, but it seems that she doesn’t get enough sleep. Still, she does not show any sign of fatigue at the photo shoot. Even the large bag looked good on Kitagawa’s small face,” said a TBS employee.
Entertainers who live in the glamorous world also carry fashionable bags. It’s not just a luxury brand product. The designs and colors of their bags show their sense of style and attention to detail. Check out the celebrity items!
Taking a break at a select store
Actress Meiku Nagano (21) was spotted on a night in mid-March 2007. She was at a select store in Roppongi, Tokyo. She was wearing dark nail polish and carrying a Prada bag on her shoulder. As expected from a junior model, she had a high sense of fashion. After rummaging around for a while, Nagano “bought” the clothes she tried on.
Nagano is currently being inundated with offers to appear in dramas and movies. With her busy schedule, shopping seems to be an important time for her to refresh herself.
Sliding into a brand with a strong mode flavor
In April 2007, I saw Haruka Ayase (36) in front of a multi-tenant building in Ebisu, Tokyo. When she got out of the car, she looked around with a suspicious expression, but she soon smiled and walked up the stairs of the building. It was two and a half hours later when I left the building with a large paper bag in my hand. She must have been visiting a general merchandise store in the building.
“The shirt-knit top and bag were both from Maison The top and bag are both from Maison Margiela. The top and bag are both from Maison Margiela, and when I saw Ayase in her casual clothes at the TV station, she was also wearing Margiela. I guess that’s her preference. Margiela has a strong modal color, and if it were not for that, it would look unpleasant, but she wears it smoothly and well-balanced. I can sense her sense of style.
Shooting in a luxury brand’s new collection
In May 2007, the sun was shining like it was the middle of summer. In May 2007, the sun was shining like midsummer, and a large number of film crew members were standing on the street in Yoyogi Uehara, Tokyo. What they were staring at was Mitsuki Takahata (29) in a mini-skirt.
Perhaps she was working in the fashion industry. They were filming a scene in which Takahata was carrying a new Louis Vuitton bag.
“Congratulations are in order around Takahata these days. Her best friend Yu Aoi has scored a goal with Ryota Yamasato of Nankai Candies. Takahata has also been seriously thinking about getting married lately.
What comes across from the photos is the overwhelming presence of the celebrities. The luxury brand bags further accentuate the charm of these girls.
