Victoria Beckham is such a vision of color coordination, as was evident when she hit Barney’s with her kids a couple of days ago. Her hair matches the dark brown part of her chic minidress, while her highlights, handbag and even her glossy (and ever-pouty) lips match the primarily peachy-beige bits on the rest of the dress. The croc purse, which is just about as large as Posh herself, is understated yet striking with its natural hue and diminutive gold hardware. Though I can’t imagine carrying something so large while voraciously shopping myself to death at Barney’s, I’m intrigued by this purse’s elegance and glamorous simplicity. Any idea who the designer is?

{September 19, 2008}   Paris promotes herself

paris-hilton-handbag-collection.jpg

I agree wholeheartedly with PopSugar: Paris Hilton looked, in a word, ridiculous, on her way to the tanning salon in this getup. The heiress put together a head-to-toe look promoting her own line: black tank top, black stretch pants, and black purse with studding and heart detail. And to add insult to injury, she donned that tinfoil thing that doubles as a hat. If this is a sneak peek at her new line, I think I’ll



{September 19, 2008}   Paris Hilton in Africa

paris-hilton-in-africa.jpg

I love Paris Hilton. I really do. Without her to define “ridiculousness”, where would we all be? She’s in South Africa this week, traveling with her new boyfriend while Good Charlotte tours. To kill some time, Ms. Hilton visits an orphanage in Pretoria… in a stark white ensemble with embellishments, a country club-worthy hat, and a face full of makeup. Ms. Hilton must have known the press would be following her because she toted a handbag from her own line, emblazoned with her name on it. To make things look more believable, she even cradled some orphans for a photo-op — look at the terrified expression on that child’s face! Ahhhh, Paris — what would we do without her?

Audrina Patridge is back on the scene and it’s just in time for The Hills premier on March 24th. Audrina has such a low key, California girl look, and when you’re gorgeous I guess you can get away with this look. In a plain black t-shirt and super light jeans, she’s the epitome of casual glam. I’m not really digging her hair this dark (it looks more jet black than dark brown, no?), but who cares! What we’re really interested in starts next Monday!

It looks like her friend is carrying

But who is that man she’s holding hands with? Whoever he is, seems Renee made a little bit of an effort in dressing for their get together (the two were seen leaving the Waverly Inn). She wore a LBD, black patent 120mm Christian Louboutin Pigalles, a white coat for contrast and toted a black Hermes Longue. Seems Hermes Longues and Christian Louboutin stilettos have made a number of outings together this past week, and not just on Renee! I like this trend!

Oh Miley. You’re such a cute girl, with a great career going for you. Presumably, you have people working around the clock to further your career and look after your interests. It’s a shame they let you go out like this. And no, I’m not talking about the shorts paired with the lumberjack button-down (which, I admit, is age-appropriate for you); I’m referring to that bag on your shoulders with Chanel logo. Surely, you or whoever gave you that tote, realize that you’ll be photographed with it. Said picture will then be posted on a gazillion websites (like this one) and surely, someone, somewhere, will recognize that bag for what it is: A Chanel Paris-Londres knockoff.

We know how much Christina Aguilera loves her high-heeled Christian Louboutin shoes, but it seems the songstress also loves Monsieur Louboutin’s handbags! Christina and her hubby, Jason, were spotted on a shopping trip for baby Max in LA the other day and Christina was looking uncharacteristically dressed down and covered up. Her jeans, tee and blazer combo was dressed up with the oh-so-cute Christian Louboutin Loubette purse, and punched up with Christina’s signature siren-red lipstick (also a close shade to Louboutin’s signature red sole!). I’ll admit, I expected the Loubette to look much more precious than it does but on Christina, it looks perfectly modern and cool. When we reviewed this purse, you had mixed feelings about it, giving it only 3 1/3 stars. After seeing how it looks on Christina, what do you think now?

Eager to put in as much face time as possible for her show, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kim flew across the country to attend a Party at Harrah’s Resort in Atlantic city on Saturday night. She came dressed in head to toe black – body hugging knit dress and thigh high boots. Her rhodoid (read: plastic) chain Chanel completed her ensemble. Her companion (sister? but which one?) is dressed similarly to Kim in all black and sports a patent Timeless Chanel Clutch.
