One of the biggest trends right now is 60s inspired wear, ranging from clothing, footwear, and handbags. This Chloé “Darla” Shoulder Bag demonstrates this 60s inspired appeal, which is exhibited in more of a modern way with an emphasis on sophistication. The lady-like silhouette complements the vintage aesthetic, by which this handbag is impeccably tailored. Though I usually associate Chloé for its affinity of neutral and tan hues, I appreciate the boldness of the red color. Seemingly, this bag shows off a feminine and vintage charm and I really love Rachel Bilson’s modern take on this trend.

Melie Bianco “Desiree” Cross Body Bag
The Melie Bianco “Desiree” Cross Body Bag is an affordable alternative to the Chloé handbag, featuring a similar take on the 60s feel fused with the lady-like silhouette. This bag is quite practical with an extra strap so that it can be worn like a crossbody bag. This increases the level of convenience without losing the elegant and polished aspect. This bag is available in black, burgundy, taupe and whisky (faux) leather.

Ahhhh, Alaïa, the superlative in designer shoes. Not only in quality but also in price. Can you imagine forking out 2k on a pair of summery wedges? Sure, they’re gorgeous and absolutely lustworthy, but still. $2.090. Crazy! Also sold out. It is Azzedine Alaïa after all.

So you want Alaïa but for less, a lot less, right? No problem, we’ve got your back! Be fabulous like Rachel Bilson in these Alaïa look-a-likes by Miz Mooz which are just a little over $100. Doesn’t this price sound so much better than $2.090? Available in cognac, black, grey, green & red.

Rachel Bilson is one of my style-crushes. I pretty much fall head over heels for everything she wears. I love that she is neither obsessively trendy nor yawningly classic; she lands somewhere in the middle. So naturally she would choose 3.1 Phillip Lim‘s Edie Bow Studded bag as her go-to accessory. The bow is of course unapologetically girly, but the studs add a roughness. The size, too, is perfect. Obviously Rachel agrees as she appears to carry it constantly! Rachel isn’t the only one, however; we’ve also seen this bag on the shoulders of Diane Kruger, Leighton Meester and Nicky Hilton. I’d love to add my name to that list, I really would, but it’s the same old song: too pricey and sold out.

NASTY GAL Gold Star Satchel
UPDATE (10/02/2010): Just came across another super fabulous “Edie” alternative by NASTY GAL. And it’s on sale!

ModCloth Star Light, Star Bright Bag
Well, well, well, look what popped up on ModCloth? There is absolutely no denying that the Star Light, Star Bright bag was heavily inspired by the Phillip Lim Edie. From the bow to the studs to the embossed leather – ladies and gentlemen: we have a dead ringer. With the much more manageable price of $30, this bag is sure to be a huge hit.

Miu Miu bags are just awesome. I can’t recall that I’ve ever hated a Miu Miu bag. This quilted beauty in blush is the perfect medium-sized everyday bag. It will fit your wallet, keys, cellphone & the always needed beauty supplies. Just wish this bag wouldn’t be a) sold out and b) so pricey!

Big Buddha “London” Bag
Big Buddha‘s “London” Bag is an almost identical dupe of the Miu Miu bag with the major difference being the size as the Big Buddha version is a lot bigger than the Miu Miu shown on the celebs above. However, it’s still a great bag to carry around and it comes not only in nude as shown below but also in a luscious strawberry red or beautiful camel. Credit for this find goes out to J over at The Look 4 Less blog.

Rachel Bilson is a fan favorite (or at least one of my favorites) because she always manages to look effortlessly cool in whatever outfit she steps out in. Normally, nothing screams prim and proper like a crisp white button down shirt. Well, Rachel pairs it with denim cutoffs and it just nullifies everything we thought we knew about mixing the two. Well, done Ms. B, well done.
