Nicole Richie takes a stroll in Beverly Hills with a Celine tote in hand as she shops for the Holidays. The celebrity designer dressed for style and warmth in a textured jacket and blue-and-ivory printed scarf. Her jeans cuff fell nicely onto her House of Harlow 1960 lace-up boots.

She styled her hair with straight bangs and the makeup was in a neutral palette. The large sunglasses added the right amount of glam to her look. It’s all about the task at hand and looking good while you do it.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley made going to the grocery store a stylish adventure in leather leggings and a Chanel purse. The model also wore an off-the-shoulder top and suede boots while shopping in West Hollywood. Her choice of neutral colors in green, cream and taupe blended nicely with her bluish-green designer bag and her brown sunglasses.

The hair was in a messy ponytail and her makeup was sheer and subtle. This ensemble looks great on her, but it’s tricky to pull it off like she did. I know not to try this look at home.

 Marion Cotillard is sitting pretty in her new Miss Dior Fall 2011 handbag campaign.  She looks stunning only months after giving birth to her son.  The ads are subtle and tasteful, but they center around an opulent lifestyle.  It’s evident in the chauffeured luxury car, and refined wardrobe.  These bags are rich in texture, and the chain straps are standouts in oval and rectangular shapes.

Gucci has designed a special bag to benefit UNICEF’s ‘Schools for Africa’ initiative.  It’s chocolate brown with a raised texture and luxurious pattern.  This handbag has all the beauty of an ’it bag,’  with the perk of shopping for a worthy cause.  Twenty-five percent of the sales will go directly towards granting children access to education.  The satchel goes on sale today in stores and online for $1,430.

Lauren Bush and Judith Leiber have teamed up to bring us FEED clutches for the evening.  They are more compact and stylish than the usual totes to carry out for an event.  Who doesn’t want to own a Leiber design?  One comes with the non-profit’s logo, the other is adorned with beading of a ethnic print.  These bags come in silver or gold linen, and they retail for $495; $250 from said sale will go towards a global food-supply program delivering 1,000 school meals for children in need.  You can get yours at Judith Leiber stores and online, and at Bergdorf Goodman starting on May 5th.

Renee Zellweger wore a Tommy Hilfiger dress to the launch of her handbags with the brand in Milan.  The two came together to raise awareness about breast cancer for Breast Health International.  Sales from these bags will also fund the organization.  Her look was a strapless forest green cocktail dress with sweet draping and tons of sheen.  The color looks great on her, it works with her blond hair and blue eyes.  Renee accessorized wuth a black pair of pointy toed pumps.

Marion Cotillard returns in another Lady Dior ad for Christian Dior for Spring 2011.  The actress wore a violet dress with purple ribbon woven through the straps and neckline.  A beautiful red bag with black pattern is strategically placed before her to conceal her growing baby bump.  Photographer Craig McDean shot the ad in Russia, and he brought culture and beauty together.
