What would the holidays be without a dose of Kimye to spice up your social media timeline? This time around the couple are making headlines after Kim showed off one of the Christmas gifts that her beau Kanye gave her… a one-of-a-kind Hermes Haut à Courroies Bag. I know you’re thinking, “What’s wrong with that?! ” but this isn’t just any one-of-a-kind handbag.

I mean, c’mon this is a gift from Kanye! The bag, which is adorned with naked bodies, was hand-painted by the contemporary artist George Condo. (Yes, this is the same person who did the artwork from Kanye’s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy album.)

Kim shared the above pic on Instagram with the caption: “#HandPaintedGeorgeCondo #HermesBirkin #OneofOne #ChristmasPresentFromYeezy.”

I’m a fan of art and I love a thought-provoking pieces as much as anyone else who respects the craft, but I just don’t get it. The bag itself is gorgeous, but the picture is is a little creepy and I personally wouldn’t want to walk around with body parts on my accessories! Kim seems to love it, so Kanye’s winning in that department. Plus, I’m sure Kim has a Birkin Bag collection that one can only dream of, so this might hold sentimental value for her.

I’m all for a gorgeous handbag gifting, but this just isn’t it! I’m a little on the fence about this one. I mean, it’s Kimye, so the unexpected should always be expected!

What do you think of the hand-painted Hermes Birkin Bag that Kanye gifted Kim? HAUTE or NOT?
