Scruffy Jackie O purse sells for $31K

Got a spare $31,000 lying around? Neither do we! But if we did, we’re pretty sure we wouldn’t spend it on this raggedy old bag, once owned by Jackie Kennedy and put up for auction by the family of a former Kennedy chauffeur James H. Boyer Sr.

We love us some Jackie Kennedy, but this bag? Really?

Still, with a final bid of $31,250, it seems others felt differently. The black satin clutch is Christian Dior, but it’s got a lot of wear and tear throughout (read: A LOT!) — not something we’d be toting around to any White House functions. One of the other Jackie Kennedy items up for auction, a pair of scuffed Revette brand shoes, had, unsurprisingly, no takers.
