Lily Collins and Elizabeth Olsen have both been in Paris, France for Fashion Week, no doubt selecting looks for their next red carpet appearances.

During some down time, the actresses were spotted strolling around the city yesterday and, as if by coincidence, both were spotted carrying the new Alexander McQueen ‘Heroine’ bag, which was first spotted on Elizabeth when she arrived in Paris on Sunday

The Alexander McQueen ‘Heroine’ tote was a huge hit with celebs; now it looks like the bag du jour is the ‘Heroine’ chain satchel.

Featuring two internal compartments, soft suede lining and gleaming gold-tone hardware, Alexander McQueen’s leather ‘Heroine’ bag is as practical as it is luxe.

Finished with a gold-toned strap, the sling-it-over-your-shoulder bag allows for stylish hands-free navigation.

Hollywood A-listers such as Zoe Saldana, Kate Beckinsale, Jessica Chastain and Amanda Seyfried have all been spotted carrying Alexander McQueen’s ‘IT’ bag – the Heroine.

They love the ‘Heroine’ tote, which is constructed from flawless leather and finished with gold hardware, as it embodies the precision, craftsmanship and attention to detail which are true qualities of any Alexander McQueen piece.

One of Asia’s favourite stars, Yao Chen, has been spotted carrying the same bag in a pretty blush-pink version from the Resort 2013 collection.

Her sturdy, functional tote in an uber-girlie colour was worn with a nubby knit sweater, uber-cool skinny leather pants, Isabel Marant ‘Stuart’ studded pumps and a gold pendant necklace.

The colourful cap with a pom-pom accent adds a cool quirk to her look.
