Model of the week Lydia Hearst has teamed up with Heatherette designers Traver Rains and Richie Rich to design a collection of handbags for sportswear brand Puma.
The 10 limited-edition Puma Lydia bags, around $100, are inspired by the French 77 Racket Bag. On Tuesday, Lydia (left) proudly modeled two of her bags at a press brunch in NYC. They're patent, sporty, but would you be caught with one at the gym?

i like it!!.. i think its cute!... the grey one!
i would probably use it for more
then the gym.. like running around on a saturday or sunday afternoon!
1I think they're pretty tacky, although that element was to be exoected when I heard Heatherette helped her out with the designs. And what qualifies her to design bags?
2I agree with Miss Kersalli....... Tacky!!!!!!!!!
3so cooool!
4I like they grey one!
5The black one, I agree, is a little on the tacky side!
But the grey one is cute
Ick...
6I like Puma but I'll stick with shoes.
7ugh.
8I really don't like them. Or her.
9The gray one is okay, but I'm not really into them overall.
10I HATE Heatherette...so no.
11YUCK! i hate the gym bag bags!
12I think it's the handles on these that ruin it for me. And, the need to pleather-ize everything also adds to the "tacky" factor. In the end, it could have been worse but it could have been MUCH better too.
13I hate the bags. And what is up with her? Is she famous for any reason other than being a Hearst?
14ew - maybe for the gym? looks like they should be in walmart
15Why are some of my favorite designers all pairing up with Puma? Alexander McQueen, now Heatherette?? I don't really get it.
16The gray one looks delicious! I think I'm a little biased because I just love Puma. They've always been able to create sporty, casual bags and shoes that were still fashionable and cool.
17No no no. tacky unless you are only using it as a gym bag.
18Why do they have to be so big? What are people hauling around nowadays that makes them use luggage as their everyday handbag?
19Ugly.
20Tacky.
21Hates it.
22I love Heatheretter, but I can't stand Lydia Hearst, so I'm not sure - I like the gray one and I kind of like the black one but I would have to see them...
