Image via WikipediaTara Reid was recently seen on Robertson Boulevard in Los Angeles, browsing Louis Vuitton handbags and all the while sporting what appeared to be a replica Louis Vuitton purse. The star of the hit film American Pie was pursued through the trendy shopping district by at least twenty photographers who snapped up some pictures of the questionable purse.
Louis Vuitton purses and handbags have very specific and exact characteristics that are difficult to imitate, and help to determine whether a bag is genuine or fake. The purse's interior appears to be burgundy, and not the dark brown that lines the authentic article. The red dye used around the seams looks to be unusually thick, and lastly the straps and handles look awkward- the bag itself doesn't hang from them as it should.
The 32 year old actress has been a long time fan of Louis Vuitton purses, but this is not the first time her judgment has come into question regarding her fashion choices. She was recently seen arriving at a Los Angeles airport with two Louis Vuitton bags, one of them being the possible replica and the other a Montsouris GM backpack. Apparently, when Reid lost the leather drawstring that closes the top portion of the bag, she replaced it with a dirty white shoestring! Considering the bag itself goes for over $500, one would think she could afford the replacement leather string available from Louis Vuitton for only $20.
After garnering attention as 'Bunny', in the Cohen brother's The Big Lebowski, Tara Reid rocketed to stardom in 1999 with a lead role in the hit film American Pie. She made an appearance in the sequel as well, albeit in a much smaller role. Since then she's been unable to land any significant film roles. She did appear on the hit NBC sitcom scrubs, but her character was limited to 11 appearances from 2003-2005. Reid, who hails from Wyckoff, New Jersey, suffered a bout of anorexia nervosa after splitting with fiancé Carson Daly in 2001, and was visibly afflicted during her scenes in American Pie 2, which was being filmed at that time. Many believe her career never really reignited after the setback, and that at the age of 32 the demand for her to be cast in her trademark role as a college girl may be on the wane.
As of yet, there has been no comment from Louis Vuitton in regards to Reid's alleged knockoff. The luxury fashion industry doesn't take kindly to celebrities sporting replica handbags, Louis Vuitton purses, or replicas of any other brand. This was recently evidenced by designer Karl Lagerfeld's tiff with rocker Courtney Love, after Love was seen sporting a replica Chanel dress to Paris Hilton's birthday party in February of last year.
Reid has also refused to comment on speculation that her Louis Vuitton handbags are replicas, although the purse that started the controversy seems to have disappeared from her regular rotation for the time being.
