Alexa Chung Stands Out with a Whimsical Chanel Milk Carton Bag

We've always loved Alexa Chung's quirky sense of fashion. This British It girl often includes quirky fashion pieces in her wardrobe and however weird they may look to others, she still pulls them off very tastefully.

At the Topshop Unique runway show for London Fashion Week, Alexa donned an adorable ensemble - a yellow turtleneck top paired with a Topshop leopard mini skirt and comfy metallic flats. While most of the ladies sitting in front row wore very serious dark-hued clothes, Alexa was such a refreshing sight with her brightly colored street-smart casual look. The mix of cute pieces made her easily standout in the crowd of snobbish black-wearing fashionistas.

To cap of her fun LFW ensemble, the socialite carried a Chanel "Milk Carton" purse from the brand's "Supermarket Collection", where whimsical pieces inspired by your typical grocery items were showcased. These limited edition purses are extremely expensive, with prices going up to $10,000! While we may never be able to afford (or actually pull off wearing) these quirky Chanel purses, we always enjoy seeing them being carried by celebs like Alexa, who seems like the perfect canvas for fun and whimsical fashion pieces.

Marc Jacobs’ Surplus Alligator Bag is $40,000, Too Much?

Having left the Louis Vuitton label to focus on his own brand, Marc Jacobs brought out all of his guns to create his Spring 2015 Collection, which was filled with military-inspired pieces with utilitarian details and edgy cuts. One of the more notable pieces from this collection is the Surplus Plus Bag done in luscious alligator skin leather.

The hobo shoulder bag is effortlessly elegant with its textured exotic leather and classic colors. This particular style will be sure to upgrade any outfit from drab to fab, but that's if you are willing to splurge on a five-figure handbag. With a price tag of $40,000, this Marc Jacobs alligator purse is surely one of the most expensive designer purses we have seen this year.

There's no question about Marc Jacobs' style prowess and ability to create wonderful pieces of clothes, handbags and shoes. To back it up, he even ensures a great runway show with each collection launch. However, this latest purse might be pushing too much. Not everyone can afford ludicrously priced purses, after all.

If you are willing to hand out your hard-earned moolah for this gorgeous bag, head over to Moda Operandi and shop their trunk show, which will be ending in a couple of days.

Selma Blair Makes a Yellow Statement in LA

It’s always inspiring to see moms who are still into fashion even though they already have husbands and children to tend and a day job to boot. One example is former Anger Management actress Selma Blair, who always ends up looking chic and sassy even when she’s running errands.

Recently, Selma debuted a lighter hairdo while heading to a kids class in Los Angeles, California, and we couldn’t help but love her new look! Check it out below:

Doesn’t Selma look vibrant and younger in those photos?

Dressing appropriately for the summer heat, the 41-year-old actress strutted her stuff in a white breezy top and a chic Daisy Dukes denim shorts. She accessorized with some trusty aviators, flat shoes, and a statement-making yellow shoulder bag. Selma’s adorable baby boy also went matchy-matchy with his stylish mom by wearing a cute pair of yellow shoes.

You, too, can look summer-appropriate this season by toting a yellow bag. Grab yourself any of these bright-colored pieces - we highly suggest you pick the Tory Burch bag for a chic summery finish.
