You’ve probably noticed all things back-to-school creeping into your life once again. (Unless you live the sort of charmed life that never requires you to set foot in a big box store, and then maybe not.) Celebs are not immune to back-to-school nor its many opportunities for paid partnerships, good press and fundraising. On the flip side, celebs who haven’t made millions of dollars off moms already are just as content (or perhaps far more so) to continue living their school-supplies-free lifestyle of parties and jet-setting. Fortunately, whatever celebs were up to this week, they brought great bags.
Elle MacPherson
Here’s Elle MacPherson, flashing a Birkin that looks like it had an after-market panel added to it. There are people who specialize in these, and you can find evidence of such on Instagram.
Hayley Atwell
Hayley Atwell is making the press rounds to promote her new BBC series, Howard’s End, which I will definitely be watching. She carried this black ZAC Zac Posen Eartha Bag to her appearance on GMA. Shop the ZAC Zac Posen Eartha Bag via Saks Off 5th ($185)
Heidi Klum
Heidi Klum rarely carries a bag we can’t ID, but there’s a first time for everything, I suppose. Here she is in NYC with a boxy blue tote that has us stumped. Ideas?
Jasmine Tookes
It’s been a while since we laid eyes on Jasmine Tookes—she still looks amazing, of course. She brought this Louis Vuitton Palm Springs Backpack to Sara Sampaio’s birthday party at Avra Beverly Hills. Shop the Louis Vuitton Palm Springs Bag via Louis Vuitton ($1,940)
Jessica Alba
Jessica Alba is busy this week with back-to-school charity initiatives: She’s partnered with Staples to promote DonorsChoose.org, which allows donors to fund local school projects large and small. Here she’s carrying a wicker-paneled Mark Cross Dorothy Bag. Shop the Mark Cross Dorothy Bag via The Webster ($2,795)
Jessica Alba
And here she is again, jumpsuited, booted, and doing more press with a cream-colored The Row Double Circle Bag. Shop The Row’s Double Circle Bag via Bergdorf Goodman
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley
Rosie Huntington-Whitely was spotted at LAX earlier this week with a large suede Gucci Ophidia Clutch. Shop the Gucci Ophidia Clutch via Gucci ($1,750)
Taylor Hill
And finally we have model Taylor Hill, doing a chic designer take on “Florida grandma at airport.” She’s carrying a Prada Galleria Bag. Shop the Prada Galleria Tote via Neiman Marcus ($2,390)
