Man, would I love to raid Rachel Bilson’s wardrobe. I love this look – the black and white looks hip, not boring, and the red Chanel quilted leather handbag gives it a fun kick of color. This red number with the gold chain has been a hit with other young celebs like Mary-Kate Olsen, and I’d love to get my hands on one.

Chanel Clutch” src=”http://www.pursepage.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/paris_hiltonchanel.jpg” />

When Paris Hilton puts some elegant clothes on, she looks pretty darn cute. The heir-head stepped out recently in this pretty pale yellow gown and paired it with a silver clutch from Chanel. While I like the handbag on its own, it’s a bit large for a formal event and competes with the buttercup yellow of Paris’s dress. Perhaps she should have chosen a smaller, yellow crystal evening bag, and saved the Chanel for another night – it would look “hot” with a black dress.

Genius comes in many shapes, sizes – and numbers. Check out this clever little piece by Chanel. The Quilted 2-in-1 Bag gives you exactly what it promises: two dreamy little suede bags in one charming, compact package. The evening bag is quilted with saddle-stitched suede, with the signature double C logo placed discreetly on one side. Tucked inside this glamorous purse is a sweet little brown canvas pouch. It features an elegant-yet-playful montage of florals and Chanel’s signature No 5, and it’s finished off with a small logo in one corner. As always, you can count on Chanel to get it right nearly every time. Available for $1596 at Bluefly.

Canvas looks like a million bucks on this playful Chanel Chain Baguette. It’s a purse with spunk and flair, thanks to the fun, youthful exterior. It’s hard to resist the allure (no pun intended) of the beige leather floral applique that graces the front of the handbag, and the large double C and No 5 logos just add to the purse’s charm. This is a petite little thing that exudes the sort of luxury that’s so typical of Chanel, and, for all its playfulness, it’s really still quite versatile. Try it with jeans or a little dress and you’ll see what I mean. Available for $796 at Bluefly.

Imparting class in a way only Chanel can, this luxurious Chain Detail Tote is exceptionally stylish. It’s constructed of buttah-soft, gorgeous bronze leather and accented by delicate chain details down its front and back. The illustrious double C logo is stitched on the bag’s front, letting the world know you’ve got some seriously good taste. The chain handles are a perfect match for the handbag’s detailing, and it gives the tote a chic vibe that doesn’t take away from its everyday sensibility. Available for $1800 at Bluefly.

While out and about on her nightclubbing adventures, Paris Hilton was spied carrying an elaborate beige clutch with a large white Chanel logo on it. The quilted clutch also sports a tan flower applique and a white number 5 – is this the handbag equivalent of Chanel No. 5? It’s a little too embellished for an elegant Chanel bag, but compared to what Paris usually wears, it’s a definite step in the right direction.

Coco herself would surely approve of this incredibly elegant, vintage-looking Chanel Black Satin Evening Bag. The petite, square-shaped bag – which comes with a glam silver chain and black leather strap that can be detached – features a unique fanned-out, seashell-like quilting pattern you don’t often see. The mirrored brooch on the bottom right-hand corner boasts the Chanel logo and is the icing on this fabulous cake of a bag. It reminds me of an Old Hollywood starlet wearing a ball gown cinched with a dazzling brooch. As such, this is an evening bag that deserves to be paired with one incredible dress.

It’s not everyday you run across a nearly $1200 beach bag, but here you go, courtesy of Chanel. The Patent Clear Vinyl Logo Tote packs a punch with a healthy dose of turquoise and a slick, gleaming finish. Poolside is about the only place I’d feel comfortable toting a clear bag, and this one is definitely cute. The attached (and opaque) pouch is ideal for stashing those things you just don’t want the world to see. Love it? Pony up your cash and you’ll have it just in time to show it off in the sweltering heat. Available at Bluefly.

Has Kirsten Dunst been raiding Mary-Kate Olsen’s closet? How else to explain her hobo-chic outfit (yellow tights? eek) and that red quilted Chanel bag, which MK has been known to carry several times? While I’ve always admired the ladylike-meets-Betty-Boop look of the Chanel bag, which has that great gold chain shoulder strap), it doesn’t complement Kirsten’s eccentric ensemble at all. Kirsten – next time pick the handbag first, then build around it.
