Alexis Bledel at Coach Poppy Launch

Alexis Bledel (Rory Gilmore on Gilmore Girls) partnered with JustJared’s Jared Eng to help Coach launch their new Poppy handbag collection. The party, held at the Coach store in Short Hills, NJ on July 1st, was a great success and, thanks to Jared, I can share some photos from the event!

In an interview with JustJared, Alexis shared her plans for July 4th, her favorite BBQ dish (“moist brisket!”), what she likes about the Poppy collection for Coach, her favorite charity, and where she would like to go on vacation this year… nothing lofty, just a trip to Grand Canyon!

Alexis Bledel wore a yellow dress from Lela Rose dress, heels from Giuseppe Zanotti, jewelry from Mawi, and of course a Coach Poppy “Spotlight” bag.
