“Gossip Girl& totally makes me want to have a high school do-over. All that time, I was wasting precious moments in Alicia Silverstone wannabe threads from Judy's and Contempo Casual when I could have been stealing a page from Blair Waldorf's book and toting a Lady Dior Cannage Bag to algebra class. Oh wait – I couldn't, actually, because my parents weren't richer than God. But let's suspend disbelief for a sec and take a moment to admire the lovely designer handbag Blair (aka Leighton Meester) has got her hands on. It's certainly one of the premier Dior bags, and adds a dramatic flash of high-fashion cred to Blair's somewhat prim look. She must have one hell of an allowance. Love the Lady Dior Cannage Bag? Purchase one for $1,800 at Eluxury.com.

Make room on that Dior bandwagon for Mischa Barton! The starlet was also spied at the Paris couture shows with her ultra-glam Lady Dior handbag in tow, paired with a monochromatic Sienna-Miller-meets-A-Clockwork-Orange ensemble. It's a little overstyled, but I like the bowler. And really, she could be wearing a frock from the sales rack at Forever 21 and still look fab with that divine Lady Dior.

Oh, wouldn't you just love to hop on a plane bound for Paris so you could snag a front-row seat at the to-die-for haute couture shows? I know I would! And we'd be in good company, if the Christian Dior Paris show this week is any indication. Oscar-winning actress Marion Cotillard, Michelle Yeoh, and Dita von Teese all dressed to the nines for Galliano and company, the latter in a fetching dove gray get-up and the former two in head-to-toe black with, you guessed it, their favorite black Dior purses on hand. I think they all look smashing, but which handbag do you like the best? Michelle's classic version or Marion's mini patent model?

For someone who designs handbags, Jessica Simpson sure does spend a lot of money carrying other people's couture creations. (Not that I blame her.) Already a well-known fan of Louis Vuitton and Roberto Cavalli, Jessica has now moved on to Dior, relying on a hot pink Lady Dior Woven Shopper to jazz up her low-key outfit of jeans and a gray shawl. The outfit is nothing to write about (and yet…), but I love that delicious shot of pink. It really pulls everything together and makes what could have been just a last-minute, thrown-together ensemble a an actual LOOK. Nice work, girl.

Christian Dior's Autumn Winter 2008 Collection Show in Paris was attended by Lucy Liu, decked out in head to toe Dior. She wore stark white: a body conscious skirt suit and a fabulous white frame bag: the Dior Samourai 1947. This handbag comes in several incarnation, each one more intricate than the next. This one is rendered in white leather and suede, with a pleated design to add depth. The hardware is done in modern but classic tortoiseshell, a warm counter-balance for the coolness of the white. The design channels a vibe that is both prim and strong, reminiscent of Jackie O's and Audrey Hepburn's style –certainly fitting for Ms. Liu as well as her Cashmere Mafia character, Mia. To get the look, you'll have to drop a pretty penny. About $3,600 worth, to be more exact. Call the Dior boutiques for more information.

Talk about flying first class! Jessica Simpson charmed the friendly skies in a darling floral frock paired with an ultra-chic Lady Dior handbag. The quilted purse has the roominess of a tote, yet exudes elegance and class. Just like Jessica. Er.

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz still have a little simmering to do until their baby makes his or her debut, but until then they've found another little bundle of joy to share some quality moments with. I'm speaking, of course, of the lovely Dior Cannage Tote Ashlee's toting here. In case you're unfamiliar with Dior, it's the thing Ashlee's wearing that DOESN'T look like it was swiped from a hippie commune (unlike that boho no-no maxi dress and shifted-down headband thing she's been wearing lately). With its luxe black stitched leather and chunky gold chain details, the Dior handbag is sure to make one heck of a dapper diaper bag.

It's been a rough month for Mischa Barton, who's just emerged from a stint in the hospital. Considering all she's been through, Mischa looks pretty good, walking her dog in a fringed white vest (how very rock and roll) paired with a chic black Dior handbag. It's an odd combo, but the bag is pretty amazing. What do you think?

Ooh, I've got goosebumps! Samantha, Miranda, Carrie, and Charlotte reunited for the &”#8220;Sex and the City&”" film sequel in New York City, all looking dressed to kill in designer duds. And what's that in Kristen Davis's clutches? A hot pink Dior purse to match her cute pink dress. Just a little taste of what we can expect when the film hits screens. In the meantime, can anyone ID Kim Cattrall's snakeskin clutch? And which gal do you think looks best?

Ooh, look – it's the Countess and Jill! “The Real Housewives of New York City& stars Jill Zarin and Countess LuAnn de Lesseps joined forces to promote the Countess's new book on etiquette (which I know you're dying to read), and Jill brought along her lovely Lady Dior Cannage Bag. It's a good designer purse for her – luxurious, classic, and very status. Just what a socialite needs.
