Pippa Middleton

The Bag: Modalu’s Pippa Grab Bag

The Scoop: Modalu London reigns supreme with this season’s Autumn Winter 2011 collection. Modern aristocrat style sees a noble colour palette of rich merlots, deep oaks and inked navy. Luxury materials of velvet and pony skin ooze self-indulgence and natural style. The structured lines and fine detailed hardware adds to the pure luxury. Heritage style sees ‘Pippa’ transforming to a new classic combining rich leathers in lavish colours.

A confident and regal collection is a feast for the eyes and will leave you wanting more. So intense is P-Middy’s love affair with this Modalu bag that the London-based company re-named it after her. At £169, you don’t need to be an almost-royal to afford one.

 

Victoria Beckham

The Bag: Victoria Beckham’s Victoria Bag

The Scoop: When Victoria Beckham branched out into handbag design, she has decided to name her signature creation after herself. She may have caused a furor when a limited edition crocodile skin version went on sale for £18,000, but she personally seems to favour this classic black leather version.

 The designs were created by Mrs. Beckham with the guidance of top handbag designer Katie Hillier, who was employed as a consultant.

A spokeswoman said at the time: 'This collection is not a collaboration - as with all her ranges, Victoria has sought the best consultants to ensure the highest level of quality at manufacture for her designs.' She may have lost out to Mulberry at the British Fashion Awards, but it seems Victoria Beckham's handbags are set to become just as popular.

 

Keira Knightley

The Bag: Miu Miu’s Ostrich Hobo

The Scoop: When she was starring in The Children’s Hour in London earlier this year, Keira Knightley was papered night after exiting the stage door carrying this Miu Miu beauty.

 Actress love Miu Miu Ostrich "Hobo" bag on a quarterly basis and is set to become the new trend. A number of female stars are using this handbag and the popularity is growing. In addition to Anna Lynne McCord daily with a "she" go out, Keira Knightley, Sienna Miller, Rihanna also have the  "Hobo" bag as a good heart.

 

Olivia Palermo

The Bag: Charlotte Olympia’s Pandora Perspex Box Clutch

The Scoop: Olivia Palermo wears a lot of Charlotte Olympia – which is more to the good, since she’s lauded for her exceptional accessorizing – and this Perspex clutch in particular is a wardrobe support. We love Charlotte Olympia's fun take on fashion and Charlotte Olympia’s Pandora Perspex Box Clutch will be an instant front row favorite. Decorated with a hand-painted leopard head and in super slick black Perspex, this compact piece is as glamorous as it is tough.

Team it with fall's jewel-toned dresses to seriously amp up your eveningwear. It comes with interchangeable pouches in red, black and leopard print, making it the perfect companion for pretty much any outfit possible.

 

Sienna Miller

The Bag: Louis Vuitton’s SC Bag

The Scoop: Sofia Coppola has been working on her capsule collection of shoes and handbags for Louis Vuitton for the past year. Inspired by a trip to Louis Vuitton's original home in Asnieres, on the outskirts of Paris, Sofia wanted to design "the perfect bag that doesn't exist." So  Sienna Miller’s preference when this slouchy grey suede bag, which was designed exclusively for Louis Vuitton by Sofia Coppola, appeared to have become permanently welded to her.

 

Kim Kardashian

The Bag: Hermès’ Birkin bag

The Scoop: The Birkin bag is a handmade purse by Hermes and named after actress and singer Jane Birkin. The bag is a symbol of wealth due to its high price and imprecision to the public.

Victoria Beckham is perhaps its most prolific collector, but Kim Kardashian is fast catching her up she, too, has the bag in a rainbow of colors, from somber black to this juicy yellow. Although the Birkin bag is free of logos, it is one of the most recognized bags in the fashion industry and by the public.

 

Kate Middleton

The Bag: LK Bennet’s Natalie Box Clutch

The Scoop: One of the unsung benefits of the Duchess of Cambridge’s position is that she doesn’t need to carry anything for herself – hence her penchant for neat, boxy clutch.

This natural-hued one is a particular favorite and, like many of the duchess’ favorite staple accessories, comes from the totally accessible LK Bennett. Its simple design is made glamorous, and it will instantly add a touch of sophistication to your evening look.
