Now that Gossip Girl is on hiatus I'm pretty much only watching Bravo -- which is sadly seriously addicting! None of the characters on Bravo's version of Gossip Girl, NYC Prep, have even an ounce of Leighton Meester's character Blair's style however. I'm not into Serena, Jenny, or Vanessa's style -- exclusively Blair's. She's always so chic and pulled together, but also fashion forward (she wore Marchesa to her prom after all!). In the photo above Meester is spotted on set in L.A.M.B.'s Women's Darjeeling Leather Orissa Clutch which is now a must-buy at $192.50. It's a wonderfully versatile clutch that will work year-round (and it comes in two colorways), thanks to its contrasting trim and subtle goldtone hardware. It's got an interior zip pocket and the front flap has a concealed magnetic snap closure.

There is the most amazing deal on the Anya Hindmarch Jackson Shoulder Bag that Jennifer Garner was photographed carrying right now! It's down to $459.90 from $1,150 (60% off)! This bag is so chic, perfect for casual, outdoor summertime lunches and strolls. Anya Hindmarch has a special place in my heart -- years ago when she was mostly known for bags with photographs on them, she gave customers the opportunity to pick a personal photo of their choice and have it printed on a bag and though I don't wear it anymore, I had them make me one with an old photo of my mother and I on my 8th birthday..what a memory! I think this bag is equally as timeless. It's not overtly trendy or fashion-forward, just a nice, casual find. The leather chain is hand covered and the colorful buckle adds just the right pop of color. What do you think about the Jackson Shoulder Bag?

When a bag is prominently displayed in our favorite movies (like in The Proposal, Sandra Bullock with a Prada), we take notice and decide that we really love the bag (or not) after seeing it in action for 2 hours, how it looks on the shoulder, swinging through the streets and sitting on the lap. Unfortunately, by the time the movie comes out, the bag is already last season's story and nowhere to be found.

I am already certain that that will be the case for the Givenchy Eclipse Hobo on Rachel McAdams in, Morning Glory, set to release in 2010 with co-star Harrison Ford about a struggling morning TV show. I LOVE this bag in patent leather but the slouchy shape crinkles up the patent too much, making it crease and wrinkle in bad ways, but this cut leather version is perfection. It is not stamped to look like snake but rather is cut so it has the texture and feel with curled edges. It is perfectly uniform so you can tell it is not real snake, which I prefer, it is just for effect. Be ahead of the curve and get this bag now, at Barneys New York for $1675.

And can I just tell you, Gerard Butler is freaking HOT! He's like dirty hot, you don't want to marry him but you'll sleep with him =) I was expecting a typical romantic comedy with all its trappings (I love them!) but this was surprisingly different. Sure, the it ends as expected, has funny girl / boy bantering and gratuitous nudity (Eric Winter shows his bare butt in the movie and the Sony executive who I got the tickets from asked him at the after party if he waxed for that scene! She thought she would get fired but didn't care, she needed to know. The answer, NO!! You have to see the movie just for that scene especially knowing he has a naturally smooth butt).

The things Gerard Butler says in the movie are borderline shocking and very male-centric but hilarious. Which means, you're boyfriend/date/husband will enjoy it. Katherine Heigl was great as usual, and whatever people say about her pain in the ass behavior on Grey's Anatomy, her entire cast was there to support her (I saw her chatting with Justin Chambers, T.R. Knight and Kate Walsh). Definitely must see!!
