Kooba Tess Hobo, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags, Celebrity Shopping

The Kooba Tess Hobo is a youthful, classy new style which comes in Luggage (brown), Sky (dusty blue -- shown), and White.

Kooba always looks like Gossip Girl's Blake Lively to me -- it's no wonder they named a bag after the young star. The look is sleek and yet complicated; pretty, yet utilitarian. At 16.5"W x 9"H x 6.5"D it is large enough to hold your wallet, camera, and makeup bag, yet dainty enough to carry in the evening.

The bag features luxurious, soft grained leather, double straps and a zip top. The buckles and hardware come in silver or goldtone, according to color choice, and there are several interior pockets.

The Kooba Tess Hobo is available from Bloomingdales for $575.00.

Gossip Girl Inspired: Badgley/Sneed

Filed under: Jewelry, Celebrity Shopping

The divine, $3,200.00 carnelian and citrine necklace above comes from designer dream team Badgley/Sneed. Their gorgeous, richly creative, intricate pieces ooze sophistication and style. See the gallery below for some more of our favorite Badgley/Sneed designs!

The Badgley/Sneed team is comprised of Jan Sneed and Lynne Murphy Badgley, two longtime friends. Combining class with semi-precious stones, their work is exquisite, yet attainable.

We hear there's a new line coming--and in our gallery, you'll see Lynne Badgley wearing an item from said line. Though it is currently untitled, we understand the line is inspired by Gossip Girl.

It's no coincidence Lynne Badgley is Penn Badgley's mother! Penn and Blake Lively have been seen promoting Badgley Sneed designs together. Fun fact: Jan Sneed is Penn Badgley's godmother.

Keep an eye on this pair, they've got beautiful designs and celebrity connections. You can't buy luck like that!

33-pound Swarvoski encrusted Christian Dior gown

by Star Sutherland (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Apparel, Art

The always charming Blake Lively from the hit series Gossip Girl had her work cut out for her at a recent Vanity Fair photo shoot. Her day included prancing around in a 33-pound Christian Dior gown! The yellow satin gown dazzled with Swarovski crystals detailing, 6,000 sequins (I counted), and detailed hand stitching. Lively, always a star, rose to the occasion and truly owned the dress, the photos are effortless and pretty. I wonder how much a gown like that would cost, any guesses?
