Pop princess, Britney Spears, was all smiles while shopping at a Michael’s craft store with her boyfriend Jason Trawick last week. But whoa, what is up with Britney’s outfit? Her dress looks a bit too formal for craft supply shopping, even though she tried dressing it down with a newsboy hat and a pair of combat boots. Oh well, at least Britney is sporting a cute handbag for her little outing. It’s one of Coach’s latest additions, the Julia Small Satchel!
What an adorable little bag! I love the satchel shape and shoulder strap-length handles. I also love the color (called Berry) and the richly pebbled leather. This bag would be great for a day of running errands. However, it is also elegant enough to be worn for an evening out on the town. Hmm… perhaps Britney had it right after all! The dress and the bag look good together anyway, even if she does look a little out of place with her surroundings.
Shop the Coach Julia Collection at Macy’s!

It’s Circus star Britney Spears and boyfriend, both were spotted by the paps. carrying bags in hand. The boyfriend is carrying a very well known shopping bag that most of us ladies are familiar with, while Brit-Brit sports the Croc Embossed Morning After Bag by Rebecca Minkoff. Minkoff MAB’s are indeed great travel choices, their comfy, roomy, and don’t scream designer. I love how the MAB is ideal for every gal ranging from the student who stuffs notebooks into her purses, the shopper who seeks a comfy grab-and-go satchel, to the mom who needs that spacious bag to store everything from toys to sweaters in. The wide range of leathers, textures and colors found in the Morning After collection makes these satchels greatly desired, it’s just a matter of which style is your pick.
Britney’s choice of embossed exotic reptile retails for over $600 and might be challenge to find at local Minkoff shops. Although I did spot this brand spanking new Croc MAB up for grabs though: Authentic Rebecca Minkoff bags on eBay

It’s Britney Spears and kids, enjoying a nice day out in London. Britney was seen throughout London for three weeks as she was performing her Circus tour. During her time out of the states, pictures of the pop star kept on making their way online (of course) and repetition of the same magenta handbag is seen. After many attempts to identify who makes her bag, I’m officially stumped and I give up. I don’t think her handbag is amazing, but I do find the luscious magenta color to be very attractive. I wonder if that truly is her handbag, or is it more of a giant fun bag to keep the kiddos goods in. Whether it’s loaded with makeup and accessories or toys and sippy cups, Britney sure does look satisfied with her extra bold bag. Key details includes the gathered pleats at the sides, I would imagine that to be some type of designer signature detail. Is the bag leather or vinyl material? But most importantly, who’s the designer behind this slouchy piece?
This would make a great summer bag or just like Britney shows us, a nice mom bag that’s definitely not boring. So ladies, help us name Britney’s bag.

Britney Spears has become the new spokeswoman for the Candie’s brand sold exclusively at Kohls. Candie’s seems to continuously attract some of Hollywood’s hottest young female stars. Past Candie’s spokeswomen have included Fergie, Hayden Panettiere, Hilary Duff, and Jenny McCarthy. The Candie’s brand offers a handbag line that features handbags of all different shapes, sizes, and colors and for all different occasions. You can find cute colorful clutches or faux leather hobo bags. They range in price from $15-$40. These bags may not offer the luxury and chicness of designer handbags…but at those prices what do you expect?
Britney’s deal with Candie’s and Kohls is in conjuction with her current US tour and will be playing a major part in her promotional activities. As a part of the deal Britney will be wearing Candie’s items, including handbags, in one of the music videos for a single off of her newest album “Circus.” Do you think Britney may start a penny saving trend with these Candie’s promotions? The brand certainly thinks there is a synergy between Candie’s and Britney’s fan base and if there was anytime to start a money saving trend it is certainly now during this economic downturn.
Find Candie’s handbags at Kohls.com for $15-$20.

Top 5 Handbags Worn By Celebrities
Celebrities are known as the go to guides for fashion trends. They can be quite powerful when it comes to wearing something fashionable. One picture is taken of them wearing a certain handbag, and next thing you know the picture is everywhere. Once women around the globe see the snapshot of the newest “it” bag worn by celebrities, for some odd reason they feel the need to have the handbag too. Suddenly, the handbags are sold out of stores world wide, and are then seen on eBay with quite a bit of a price hike. Celebrities have the money to buy tons of handbags everyday if they want to, but when they wear a bag that is sold out everywhere you know the handbag is hot commodity. People can have their personal opinions or what handbags are hot and not. To me if numerous celebrities are seen with certain handbags, those handbags will be listed as “it” handbags. Once a handbag has the privilege of being an “it” handbag it can now have the title of being a top handbag worn by celebrities.

One handbag that is hated by a lot of bagista’s but seen on celebrities is the See by Chloé ‘Daytripper’ Satchel. This handbag has been seen on numerous celebrities including Jessica Alba and Miley Cyrus. Miley Cyrus has been seen everywhere she goes with her blue See by Chloé ‘Daytripper’ Satchel. The blue See by Chloé ‘Daytripper’ Satchel is suddenly sold out of stores. Concidence? I think not. I personally love this handbag, and have written a blog on it before. It didn’t get high reviews but believe it or not, in the celebrity world this handbag is a hot item.

Another handbag that has been seen on the celebrity scene is the YSL Pebbled Leather Easy Y Satchel. This handbag has been seen on Lindsay Lohan a lot lately, and I think no one can deny the beauty of this handbag. It’s obviously to see why a celebrity would want to carry around this gorgeous handbag. The YSL Pebbled Leather Easy Y Satchel is currently not sold out in stores, but I’m sure if more celebrities pick it up it will be soon.

The third handbag seen on celebrities lately is the Louis Vuitton Shimmer Comete handbag. Britney Spears has been seen carrying this handbag everywhere recently and I can’t blame her. She has made a lot of bad decisions in the past, but she scored major points when she decided to purchase the Louis Vuitton Shimmer Comete bag. This handbag is beautiful but comes with a big price tag as well as a waiting list. Britney Spears’ has been seen all over the internet with this handbag in her hand, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it sells out even quicker now.

It’s no surprise that the Christian Dior Karenina handbag is the fourth handbag that celebrities have been seen carrying lately. I personally do not like this handbag, but it’s obvious that Christian Aguilera, Denise Richards, and Sienna Miller do. This handbag is not my style, but I’m sure this handbag will be flying off the shelves due to it being a celebrity favorite.

The last handbag seen on celebrities lately, is the Salvatore Ferragamo Apollonia. I’m sure most bagista’s will think this handbag is hideous but I think it’s unique and beautiful. The colors, and patterns on the handbag are gorgeous! It’s not wonder why Reese Witherspoon has been seen carrying this handbag around. Love it, or Hate it, this handbag is a celebrity favorite.

There are so many handbags out there that could of reached this top 5 celebrity handbag list. Some people may consider these celebrity favorites and some may not. There is one thing we all can agree on though and that is once a celebrity wears a handbag, it’s usually instantly sold out in stores.

Britney Spears loves her Replica Chanel Purse
It was only a matter of time before ex-pop star Britney Spears was added to the pool of celebrities who wear fake designer handbags. Joining the list with tennis pro Anna Kournikova who sports a fake Louis Vuitton Multicolore Speedy, reality t.v. star Nicole Richie who owns a few fake Balenciaga’s, American actress Michelle Trachtenberg who totes a replica Chloe Paddington Satchel, and now Britney Spears with her white-ish-pink bag that’s suppose to be “Chanel.?
I didn’t realize how much she has let herself go until I discovered this picture of her leaving Italian restaurant Cravings last night in West Hollywood with this dreadful piece of replica-crap on her arm.
Nay Britney, nay.
