Seems one of the most fashionable accessories these days is the really huge handbag. How many does the average star have? Who knows. I have one and it seems to suit me just hunky dory. Well okay, I actually have like four but only one I use, the others are from purses past.
Anyhoo, this green shoulder breaker is a green Balenciaga bag, perfect for St. Patrick's Day (and I Love the fact that it matches adorable Suri).
Where to buy: You can see a good collection at Balenciaga including clothing, accessories, shoes, and mens-wear, but the site doesn't actually sell the stuff, just shows it off. There a store locator though in case you're tempted to rush out and buy your own huge, very expensive purse.
Bluefly has a nice collection of Balenciaga bags, though none of this green bag. Designer Apparel also has quite a few bags.
Cost: If you want an authentic Balenciaga bag you should be willing to pay a pretty penny. You can buy a small handbag for around $200-300 but for a large bag like the one that Katie is toting above you're more likely to pay about $1300 or more. Ouch. Besides the hefty price tag since so many celebs are seen carrying these around, many places that do carry the bags have waiting lists. So expensive and exclusive.
