Woman Claims Stranger Gifted Her Hermes Bag at Los Angeles Club, Sparks Online Debate
Los Angeles, CA - A recent viral video by content creator Skylar has sparked widespread discussion after she recounted receiving a high-value Hermes Kelly bag from an unknown individual at a Los Angeles club. The incident, which Skylar described as a "storytime," occurred two days prior to her video upload. According to Skylar, she was at a club called "The Keys" in Los Angeles when a man approached her, stating his friend wished to gift her a "Birkin." Skylar initially expressed skepticism, believing the offer was merely an invitation to shop for the bag. However, the man insisted, revealing his friend had the bag on hand and simply wanted to give it to her. Upon receiving the bag, which was later identified as a Hermes Kelly, Skylar's personal security guard, who was also present, reportedly confirmed its authenticity. The security guard informed Skylar that the benefactor had purchased five such bags from the Hermes store on Rodeo Drive earlier that day and had spent an estimated $100,000 on alcohol at the club. Skylar also noted seeing another woman online who claimed to have received a similar gift from the same individual at the same club. Despite the generous gift, Skylar stated the bag's mature style and color were not to her personal taste. She intends to gift the Hermes Kelly bag to her mother.
