Katherine Heigl doesn’t leave her house without her Spring 2009 ‘Marc Jacobs Memphis Python Robert Lexie’ tote.

The eye catching bag is perfect for summer with it’s bright yellow python leather.

The stand-out drawstring tote has a metallic burgundy and black circle motif with metallic nylon straps.

Its large 16″x 18″ dimensions allows this tote to be perfect to carry to the office, shopping trips or use as overnight luggage.

I love the colorful tassel and contrasting colours.

From meetings to an airport check in, Katherine carries her tote everywhere including…

…the “Letterman” show, where an assistant held her bag whilst she posed for photographers. Katherine can’t be away from her baby for too long, which makes sense when you check out the price.

You can share Katherine’s obsession by purchasing this bag from Barney’s for $4,200, or you can purchase a smaller version from Saks.com for $1,995.

Kerry Washington was a picture of perfection as she paired her Malandrino Spring 2009 nude top, decorated with a multi chain detail draping from the neckline, with a slate grey skirt.

She accessorized her look with a beautiful quilted clutch and metallic heels.

I would’ve never thought grey and nude would work so well together.

Socialite Helen Lee Schifter opted for a more casual look pairing a plaid Marc Jacobs Spring 2009 tunic top with denim shorts.

Her tunic is accented with a striped lurex belt from the same collection.

I really love this look.  I wish more stars had been brave enough to experiment with this collection.

Kelly Ripa wore a super cute paisley print Etro Spring 2009 maxi dress for this occasion.  Just adding a few bangles and flip flops to complete her look.

Blake Lively has said on many occasions that she doesn’t have a stylist, and on this evidence I do believe her.

No stylist would pair a Spring time striped shirt and white skirt with burgundy pumps.

From the ankles up this is a great look, but girlfriend really needs to practice a more red carpet poses in the mirror.

Gossip Girl actress Leighton Meester received a birthday surprise when she appeared on “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” back in April – it was her 23rd birthday on 9th April.

As she walked into the studio, Fallon had the entire audience join in the surprise as tons of confetti were released.

He wore a special birthday hat during the show whilst she wore a Marc Jacobs blue, black and yellow print dress with Christian Louboutin Differa heels.

Hilary Swank wore the same dress during the same month, when she arrived at the “Los Angeles Antiques Show opening night preview party” at the Barker Hanger at Santa Monica Airport.

The Oscar winning actress wore her dress with black open-toe sandals whilst carrying a black shoulder bag.

I predict Leighton will win this, but I much prefer this dress on Hilary. Leighton wears the matching self-tie too high up for my liking.

Gwyneth Paltrow was on The Tonight Show With Conan O’Brien last week, to promote her exclusive gym in New York City, which she has opened with personal trainer to the stars Tracey Anderson.

She wore a stunning grey Marc Jacobs Fall 2009 dress, which had an asymmetrical hem and bold shoulders, with black booties.

Despite wearing a gorgeous dress, and telling many funny stories about her children, the focus was on her legs. They were extremely shiny legs on the first segment of the chat show.

O’Brien didn’t take the opportunity to crack a joke at the expense of Paltrow’s abnormally shiny legs, but he did call her dress “distracting and crazy.”

“I’ve been doing ‘Iron Man,’ so I thought it was appropriate,” Paltrow replied. She reprises her role as Pepper Potts alongside Robert Downey, Jr. in ‘Iron Man 2,’ due out on May 2010.

I always love featuring events in Asia, because we see many pieces from the runway, which we’ve been dying to see on the red carpet.

Kim Nam Joo wore slate grey tapered pants, with her navy, red striped Marc Jacobs Spring 2009 sweater.

Her look has a cool casual vibe to it, but she still remains effortlessly elegant.

Her look was perfected with a pair of nude and red striped sandals, and a lust worthy Marc Jacobs Robert Lesley leather tote.

With her Jimmy Choo Samoa Kid sandals, Han Ji Hye wore a v neck floral print Marc Jacobs Spring 2009 jersey dress, with a two tone scarf, wrapped around her waist.

Those heels sure do pop against her dress, and that black background.

Gong Hyo Jin wore the most interesting, difficult to pull off Marc Jacobs look at this event.

With a floppy straw hat, Gong wore a Marc Jacobs Shadow plaid patchwork dress, with black sandals.

The dress really speaks for itself, so Gong kept accessories to a minimum, with just a small stack of bracelets.

I really love the contrasting colours, textures, and patterns. She really pulls this look off with great aplomb.

Kim Hee Ae was the most conservative, but her look was far from boring.

I love the sculptured shoulders on her navy two-piece, with she wore with a white striped sash tied to the waist. This sash complemented by her Marc Jacobs quilted clutch.

Kim Jung Eun opted for something a bit flirty, wearing a navy silk top, with a purple Marc Jacobs silk tulip skirt.

Her look was complete with a pair of black Jimmy Choo satin diamante platform sandals, and a Marc Jacobs ‘Robert Jennifer’ shoulder bag.

Lost actress Kim Yun Jin wore a cute blue mini dress, with an oversized bow on her shoulder. Her dress was complemented with a Marc Jacobs quilted tassle maria bag.

Lee Hye Young wore a plain black dress, which is hard to get excited about, considering what everyone else wore to this event. But I do love her wet-look Jimmy Choo Bonnie studded sandals.

Elettra Wiedemann is the current face of Lancôme, following in the footsteps of her mother Isabella Rossellini.

The fresh faced beauty was recently in Finland, to attend their Elle Style Awards.

She walked the red carpet, looking so elegant wearing a black J. Mendel Pre-Fall 2009 gown.

The satin gown has a sheer yoke, a black sash around the waist, accented with a brooch, then the gown elegantly drapes from the hip.


Her second look was in stark contrast, as she wore an edgier metallic look from Marc Jacobs Spring 2009 collection.

She mixed the top and cummerbund from Look 22, with the skirt from Look 2.

I would have loved to have seen her in the whole of Look 22, but it great that she was adventurous enough to mix different pieces from this collection.

Yes it’s me talking about Rihanna again, but she seems to be determine to wear as many runway pieces before the week is out.

Last night she was spotted headed out for some fun in New York, wearing a black tank top, black distressed trousers, black suede boots and a bright yellow Marc Jacobs Spring 2009 jacket.

I love this jacket, with the bright yellow leather, black trims and the tweed lining.

I’m glad she didn’t wear the belt, nor the entire runway look.

I’m positive she stopped traffic in this jacket.
