When a Chanel bag tells you that it is 100% Chanel, you obviously have to take it at its word. It's easier to trust that Chanel bag when it's on the arm of a proper A-lister, of course. Likewise with Saint Laurent and Louis Vuitton bags. Celebs were particularly partial to all of these easily identifiable, self-referential and frequently replicated styles this week.
Alessandra Ambrosio
Saint Laurent Beach Tote
$795 via Saks
Alessandra Ambrosio recently carried this canvas Saint Laurent Beach Tote to LAX. As you might suspect, this tote is one of the cheapest Saint Laurent bags you can buy. But then again, it's just a canvas tote with calfskin leather accents.
Beyoncé
Blood & Honey Mink Clutch
Queen Bey carried this very relatable Blood & Honey mink fur clutch to the tour-end party she threw for her crew in NYC. Surprisingly, this clutch has not totally sold out, according to the brand's website. It is also a full grand more than similar mink Blood & Honey bags, for reasons that will forever remain a mystery.
Hilary Duff
Louis Vuitton Speedy
Lest we forget, Hilary Duff does make room in her epic handbag collection/heart for Louis Vuitton. She recently carried this classic Louis Vuitton Speedy to dinner at Catch in LA.

Hermès Birkin

And here's Kris Jenner and her BF Corey Gamble, heading to Kim's place after her return from Paris with a yellow croc Birkin. Their security personnel are obviously not taking any chances this week.

On a much lighter note, we have a very important celebrity hair news update: Kristen Stewart is now a platinum blonde. Paps spotted her leaving her hotel with this unmistakably authentic Chanel Shearling Tote. Bags don't lie.
La La Anthony
Givenchy Antigona Bag
$2,435 via Nordstrom
La La Anthony recently carried this standard black leather Givenchy Antigona Bag to BFF Kim Kardashian's NYC apartment. The parade of celebs we see checking in on Kim K. will very likely extend into next week.

Finally, here's Minday Kaling, double-bagging it as she leaves The View in NYC. She has a black leather Chanel Classic Flap Bag on one arm, and a Louis Vuitton Neverfull Tote on the other.
