Wow, that Roberto Cavailli Leather Fringed Shoulder Bag is really making the Hollywood rounds. After getting some play from Jessica Simpson, the studded black leather handbag has now popped up on Halle Berry, who looks lovely as ever, if a bit low-key. You’d think that with summer breathing down our necks stars would be opting for handbags that were lighter and/or colorful, but there’s just something about the purse’s rocker edge that’s driving the starlets wild.

Watch out, people - the Simpson ladies are in full force! Jessica Simpson stepped out with mama Tina and little sis Ashlee for a ladies’ night, and opted for Roberto Cavalli’s Leather Fringed Shoulder Bag for the night. Given the bag’s studded, rock ‘n roll vibe and Jess’s sexy skinny jeans, leather jacket, and printed scarf, I’m kind of wondering if she’s been dipping her hands into Ashlee (or Kate Moss’s) closet. Whatevs - I think she looks fierce!

Close your eyes, shy ones, because this edition of Style Picks is totally nude. Nude handbags, that is. With the sun coming out and bronzed, tanned skin making its return, nude fashions and accessories are enjoying a little renaissance. Sadly, I’m much too pale to pull off a sexy nude jersey dress, which means I’ll be sticking to flesh-toned purses to get my fix. Some favorites:

Roberto Cavalli Serpent Bracelet Clutch: Ooh, ssssexy. This sleek evening bag is the perfect champagne-beige, and I love the dash of gold serpent bling. Available for $965 at Net-a-Porter.

Christian Louboutin Zip-Detail Hobo: Pleats and diagonal zippers converge in this creamy pink bag. Available for $1,995 at Bergdorf Goodman.

Proenza Schouler PS1 Large Suede Satchel: This taupe satchel is a fabulous and functional neutral bag for everyday. Time to retire those heavy black and dark brown totes! Available for $1,995 at Net-a-Porter.

Marc Jacobs BE.V Patchwork Wristlet: The pink cast of this petite clutch is just right for my complexion. So soft and pretty with a white sundress. Available for $395 at Eluxury.

Kooba Kristie Shoulder Bag: Another great basic-but-beautiful everyday handbag, this baby sports a host of fashion-forward details - zips, pleating, belts. Available for $645 at Neiman Marcus.

Animal prints may be fairly timeless, but that doesn’t mean they always work. Take, for example, this Roberto Cavalli Animal Print Calf Hair Hobo. The side panels feature stripes running in one direction, while the center panel’s stripes run in another, a look that is discombobulated enough without the help of the black leather wrap and gold hardware. The hobo shape itself is always a winner, but I can think of better designs I’d rather spend $1712 on. Available to pre-order at Nordstrom.

There’s nothing quite as satisfying as getting more than you bargained for. The Roberto Cavalli Gold Box Clutch offers two looks in one. The gold clutch alone is a striking (if somewhat simple) piece, and it’s sure to play well against the fabulous little black dress you save for special occasions - in fact, it’s just made for those kinds of moments. Slip the removable satin turquoise overlay over the gold, though, and you’ve got yourself a fresh new look, one that will work perfectly for outdoor soirees during the summer or any moment that requires a pop of color. Available for $3245 at Net-a-Porter.

Disarmingly cute but alarmingly small at the same time, this Roberto Cavalli Satin Box Clutch is a real treat if you’re in the market for something dainty, dressy and bright. It’s the perfect antidote to winter darks and neutrals, something to lighten the mood no matter what time of year it is. It’s gorgeous against a contrasting dress and stands out for miles. At just seven inches wide by a mere three inches high, though, it doesn’t prove very useful. For $3245, I do expect more. Available at Net-a-Porter.

A perfect example of unconventional beauty, this Roberto Cavalli Serpent Bracelet Clutch follows a design steeped in tradition. This isn’t the first bracelet/clutch that Cavalli has fashioned, and it probably won’t be the last. That’s because, simply put, it works. A low-key, gleaming clutch in a fabulous color is the perfect complement to an elegant bracelet (detachable, of course). You can’t go wrong with such a timeless, fun piece. Available for $910 at Net-a-Porter.

Somebody hand me a Sprite…spring’s latest handbags are giving me a craving for something sparkling and citrusy. I’m loving the the punchy lemons and limes of this new batch of designer purses - so cheerful and suitable for spring. Below, some favorites…

A cute little bag to add to your holiday party wardrobe, this Roberto Cavalli Silk Bracelet Clutch is genius in more ways than one. With Cavalli’s signature gold-tone bracelet doing all the work for you, all you need to do is swing it on and soak in all the attention you’re bound to receive. Etched with a dramatic floral print that stands out beautifully on an ivory backdrop, this clutch is destined to be a favorite year round. The outfit pairings are countless - from your sensational little black dress to your flirty purple sheath, there’s not a thing this clutch won’t partner with perfectly. Available for $1125 at Net-a-Porter.

If you’re in the market for some affordable luxury (relatively speaking, of course), you might find it in this Roberto Cavalli Runway Suede Leaves Clutch. Pretty suede in a pale, feminine lavender is arranged in a delicate tier formation. The pieces hang a bit like fringe, but without the flyaway effect of traditional fringe. Buy it now and wear it next year with your cute spring dresses and cardigans. Available for $590 (was $1475) at eLuxury.
