Jennifer Lopez recently celebrated her longtime manager Benny Medina’s 67th birthday in style. The “Unstoppable” actress and singer was spotted in Beverly Hills carrying a rare and exceptionally expensive Hermès Birkin bag, estimated to be worth tens of thousands of dollars.
Lopez paired the off-white alligator skin Birkin, featuring distinctive gold hardware, with a sophisticated yet casual ensemble. She wore a tailored plaid blazer with a fur collar over a light top, complemented by brown boots and sunglasses. While her outfit was undeniably chic, the Birkin undoubtedly stole the show.
