Lauren Conrad Balenciaga motorcycle bags

Lauren Conrad sure has developed an affinity for Balenciaga, no? The reality TV star has been seen with a few Balenciaga motorcycle bags. The purse is timeless to some, trendy to others, and completely over with for the handbag elite. With so many fantastic bags to choose from the label, why keep going for the standard City in covered hardware? The stark white bag does nothing for her outfit. Between the shiny leggings and the bag it looks like LC has been shopping at the Olsen twins’ garage sale.

Hayden Panettiere's Dooney & Bourke handbag

The economy may be in the tank, but that hasn’t stopped celebrities from putting their stamp on pricey fashion lines. Next up is “Heroes” resident cheerleader, Hayden Panettiere, who has collaborated with Dooney & Bourke to create the Hayden Clutch, a striking jewel-toned clutch with a dramatic gold lion’s head closure (apparently Hayden is a Leo). Priced at $295, the clutch comes in blue, red, green, brown, and cream with gold piping, which gives it some everyday potential - but perhaps not so much evening potential. What do you think? Are you in love? Or would you rather spend your hard-earned money on a bigger label?
