Matthew McConaughey's Sweetheart Launches Muxo Handbag Line

Filed under: Handbags, Celebrity Shopping

Normally I would say that any girlfriend of a major star like Matthew McConaughey who launches a handbag line is only looking for free publicity and easy money (not that there's anything wrong with that), but in the case of Camila Alves things seem to be a lot different. Not only did she and her mother design the bags, but every single one is handmade by herself and her mother. That's makes them pretty special.

Described as "elegance meets tribal exotic" there's a lot to love in the Muxo line, including slouchy shapes, plenty of leather fringe, and even some very macho looking men's bags. My favorite of the bunch is this clutch called simply "Broadway" for $450. (Didn't she just have a baby? She's been busy.).

Matthew McConaughey's Malibu Mess

For a little while, frequently bare-chested romantic comedy star Matthew McConaughey has been living the real estate-less life in California. McConaughey sold off his three-lot Hollywood Hills compound toward the end of 2006 and then was spending most of his time in a couple of Airstream trailers in Malibu. He also still owns a 1.600-acre ranch in Texas. But last fall, McConaughey, who recently announced that his model girlfriend Camilla Alves is pregnant with their child, purchased a $10 million property in Malibu. The property is a little over an acre and includes a four-bedroom home that was built in 1949. When the sale was announced in November, Big Time Listings mentioned that the 3,550-square-foot home has had some celebrity owners in the past such as Richard Page, the lead singer of the 1980s band Mr. Mister (which had the popular songs 'Broken Wings' and 'Kyrie') who sold the house in 1996 to its most recent owner for $1,260,000. As TMZ shows in a video on their website construction has begun on the home, expanding the home which is located on a deep lot just a few houses away from the ocean.

Matthew McConaughey is far from the first celebrity to spend a lot of money on a home that needs a lot of work or may even be a tear down. Our gallery below includes a few more examples of recently multi-million dollar purchases bought for the land more than the home.

Matthew McConaughey's Corvette Sold

We mentioned that actor Matthew McConaughey had put his 1971 Corvette Stingray up for auction on eBay, with the proceeds from the sale to benefit Oprah Winfrey's Angel Network charity and the survivors of Hurricanes Rita and Katrina. The car has sold for a total of $61,600. As an added bonus, per the FAQs answered by McConaughey about the car, the owner will get to know the names of all the other celebrities who have ridden in the car.

Clearly, that was one of the biggest selling points (just kidding - hopefully).
