The Many Bags of Rachel Zoe

Although Bravo has done its best to put to rest rumors that The Rachel Zoe Project won’t be coming back for another season, we thought that now, the morning after Zoe’s Season Five finale, would be an appropriate time to take a look at The Many Bags of Rachel Zoe. As you all know, Zoe was a stylist long before she was a TV personality or owner of a fashion line, so she’s got one of the most well-stocked closets in the business.

Mary-Kate Olsen carries a The Row Alligator Mini Doctor Bag in NYC (5)

Here’s Mary-Kate Olsen, arriving at the Greenwich Hotel in NYC and carrying a The Row Alligator Mini Doctor Bag, in what is clearly becoming an on-going protest against all other bag designers whose last names aren’t “Olsen.” This gorgeous blue-grey alligator bag is from The Row’s Resort 2013 collection. Sadly, (but to the great relief of your wallet) it’s no longer available, but you can shop The Row via Net-a-Porter.

Abigail Breslin carries a Burberry Canterbury Shoulder Bag in NYC (5)

Little Abigail Breslin is almost a lady now at 17 years old, and I think it’s safe to say she’s quickly developing her own ideas about fashion. Here she’s paired a classic tartan Burberry Canterbury Shoulder Bag with a flowing white full-length dress, a fitted black blazer, and what we believe to be Jeffrey Campbell studded wedges. You can pick up Abigail’s Canterbury for $995 at Bloomingdales.

Sienna Miller carries a red and black Delvaux Madame Bag to a Vanity Fair party (5)

We were JUST gushing about Belgian designer Delvaux’s Madame Shoulder Bag earlier this month, and now here it is, on the arm of the perpertually well dressed Sienna Miller. Sienna was spotted with Delvaux in tow at Vanity Fair’sTribeca Film Festival opening night party in NYC. While Delvaux isn’t yet a household name even amongst the more fashion-savvy set, this luxe leather bag should definitely put the brand on the map for more people.

Emmy Rossum carries a Coach Legacy Mini Tanner Crossbody Bag in bright pink (5)

Here’s the ridiculously pretty and perfect Emmy Rossum, carrying her “Bright Coral” Coach Legacy Mini Tanner Crossbody Bag after a lunch date in Beverly Hills, CA. I love this Mini Tanner for so many reasons: the bold, eye-popping spring hue, the lavishly oversized tassels, and the fact that it’s just big enough to fit an e-reader, for starters. But what I especially love is the miniature price tag.

The Many Bags of Kate Bosworth

While searching through pictures of sun-dappled celebs clad in their best boho finery at Coachella earlier this week, I found myself wondering why I had yet to take an in-depth look at the bag collection of Kate Bosworth. Then, of course, I remembered that I’m the one in charge of these things, and if I wanted to make this post happen, then I could just do it myself.

Pippa Middleton carries a tan leather satchel mystery bag (5)

We’ve got a special challenge today for our most bag-savvy readers, and especially our most bag-savvy UK readers! Pippa Middleton was recently spotted in London with this mysterious, buttermilk-hued top handle bag – can you ID it? Pippa and her sis are both known for implementing lots of pieces from smaller, more reasonably priced labels into their wardrobes. One such bag from Modalu London became so popular after it was spotted on Pippa’s arm that the company renamed it after her.

Kim Kardashian to sell her Hermes Grizzly Birkin Bag

As much as people like to joke about her, Kim Kardashian ain’t no fool when it comes to fashion, and handbags in particular. Before she was famous for being famous, Kim was an LA stylist and boutique owner who frequently sold things from her own closet on eBay. Just because Kimmy’s now an internationally famous megastar who’s about to birth Kanye West’s child doesn’t mean that those wise resale instincts have gone by the wayside; Heritage Luxury Auctions’ upcoming Handbags and Luxury Accessories Signature Auction will include two bags from Kardashian’s ever-growing Hermes collection.

Coachella Celebrity Handbags

If you’re anything like me, coverage of the hippie-dippy nonsense known as the Coachella Music Festival does not interest you in the least. What does interest me (and perhaps some of you), though, is celebrities acting crazy while carrying fabulous handbags, and Coachella had more of that than perhaps you’d expect. Yes, stars carry ridiculously expensive bags to sweat, dance and get all gross and dusty in the stifling hot desert climate at Coachella.

Alessandra Ambrosio carries an Alexander McQueen Union Jack Skull Clutch to her birthday party in LA (5)

Brazilian model and Victoria’s Secret Angel Alessandra Ambrosio looked extremely smart at her birthday celebration at Bagatelle restaurant in LA last week. Alessandra rung in her 32nd consecutive year of superior good looks in an ensemble that paired the classic, statement-making Alexander McQueen Crystal Britannia Union Jack Skull Clutch with a long sleeved white minidress and nude Saint Laurent pumps. You’d hardly suspect that a mere two days lady, she’d be boho-ing it up at Coachella in a crop top and pink Daisy Dukes.
