ECHOES

Kim Kardashian West   put a lavish twist on what would otherwise be an average day of running errands. The reality star took runway fashion to the streets on Sunday, pairing an oversized purple t-shirt and white sneakers with a $35,000 Dior saddle bag. The metal purse features gold details and a matching silver strap. The pricey accessory is one of only 10 produced, according to  Vogue   — the outlet said the exclusive piece is "a collector’s piece worthy of a museum." The bag made its debut in Dior's prefall collection show in Japan in 2018, with Japanese artist Hajime Sorayama collaborating on the accessory, according to the Robb Report .

It’s the end of an era: The Playboy Mansion has sold! The Playboy Mansion is in escrow with nearby neighbor Daren Metropoulos as the buyer, a Playboy spokesperson told PEOPLE. Although they can confirm the house is in contract, the representative declined to give additional details, including the sale price. The iconic site located in Los Angeles was listed in January for $200 million. Besides the steep price tag, the sale also comes with another stipulation: The buyer has to allow Hugh Hefner a life estate so he can remain in the home until his death. But Metropoulos, 32, seems to be up for it, as PEOPLE can confirm that  Hefner  and wife, Crystal, will continue to live in the Mansion. This isn’t Metropoulos’s first experience with Hefner in the real estate market, either. In 2009, Metropoulos, a principal at private-equity firm Metropoulos & Co., purchased his current property from Hefner for $18 million, according to  ...
