Vanessa Hudgens Carries Another Fringe Bag!

Rose — Wed, 10 Aug 2011 07:53:37 +0000

We’re featuring another celebrity who apparently loves the fringe style today. It’s none other than Vanessa Hudgens.

Having been spotted countless of times carrying one different fringe bag after another, you might say this High School Musical alumnus does really have a certain affinity for the fringe style. This time, Vanessa was spotted with the Kettle Black Dreamcatcher Bag.

Aside from its fringe benefits, this stunning bag also features studs in a variety of shapes that all combine to form a dreamcatcher. It comes in a roomy saddle shape with plenty of space for all your essentials. Wear it over your shoulder or as a cross body, day or night, during any season—that’s how truly versatile it is!

We now understand why Vanessa likes this bag: it’s stylishly fantastic! If you think so, too, and would love to rock one, you can get one at Boutique To You for $550.00

Vanessa Hudgens’s Current Fave Crossbody Bag

Rose — Sat, 05 Mar 2011 03:19:00 +0000

Take a look at Vanessa Hudgens’s favorite bag of the moment.

Had a good look? It’s a black messenger leather bag that has quite a simple design. Vanessa carried it from LA to New York, and back to LA again. She had it on while preparing to depart LAX in Los Angeles, California on March 1 (middle photo). She was spotted with said bag in tow again while arriving at the Four Seasons Hotel in New York on March 3 (left photo). And the most recent sighting of Vanessa and her fave bag was on the same day when she arrived in LA from New York on a late flight (right photo).

Ready to know the make of Vanessa Hudgens’s crossbody bag? Here it is: it’s the Fendi Unzipped Zip It Messenger Bag.

It also comes in brown, which looks like this:

Its simple, no fuss design and its shiny leather material are its bestselling points. Just by looking at it, you’d instantly know it’s a premium product and is of high quality. Its zipper detailing is a nice touch that adds that edgy and sleek vibe. Plus, we love how versatile and totally functional it is with its top handle, adjustable strap, roomy interior and many compartments.

If you love this Fendi Unzipped Zip It Messenger Bag, you can shop for it at Saks Fifth Avenue for $1,295.00.

If you’re looking for less pricey options, try these messenger bags from Endless:

Vanessa Hudgens Loves Her Cole Haan Raleigh Small Crossbody Flap

Erika — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 07:05:35 +0000

Vanessa Hudgens has been seen using her Cole Haan Phoebe Crossbody Bag a number of times lately that I thought it warranted another post here on Cross Body Purses. But just recently, Vanessa has been spotted using a different bag – and she’s using it quite a lot.

Here’s the bag that Baby V replaced her Cole Haan Phoebe Crossbody Bag with:

I guess it’s no mystery anymore – the tan cross body flap bag Vanessa Hudgens replaced her Cole Haan bag with is also from Cole Haan. It’s the Cole Haan Raleigh Small Crossbody Flap:

This bag has already been blogged about a lot but here’s something you might not yet know: this bag is currently on clearance at eBags.com. What once was $298.00 is now just going for $99.99. That means you’ll only be paying a third of the price for this bag at eBags!

You gotta hurry though because these things are selling quick and stocks are very limited. In case you don’t quite make it, Zappos.com also has the Cole Haan Raleigh Small Crossbody Flap on sale with prices in between $169.00 to $238.40. They don’t have the Woodbury Nubuck color in the picture above, but they do have it in Black, Lemon and Postman Blue Nubuck. I personally like the Blue Nubuck color!

Vanessa Hudgens Wears the Alexander Wang Diego Bucket Bag

Roselle — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 07:00:16 +0000

One thing is for sure this season, sightings of celebrities in maxi dresses, maxi skirts, and boho looks are very abundant.

Leading the pack is none other than High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens. She was spotted a few days ago in Malibu doing some heavy shopping while staying true to her signature style – bohemian chic. Her outfit consisted of a skirt from Black Label, a top from Jen’s Pirate Booty, lenses from Web Eyewear, sandals from Sam Edelman, and the Alexander Wang Diego Bucket Bag, a hot piece that I wrote about months ago (click here to read article).

Vanessa Hudgens

Let’s treasure this picture, shall we? Because rarely will we see V wear a crossbody that has no fringes on it; and this is one of those rare and few occasions.

If you like Vanessa’s Malibu look, getting the exact same one will cost you:

Top – Jen’s Pirate Booty Cha Cha Tube Top, US$79 (Singer22.com)

Skirt – Black Label The Almost Famous Skirt, US$154 (ShopBluePlanet.com)

Sandals – Sam Edelman Gigi Flat Sandals, US$50 (Zappos.com)

Bag – Alexander Wang Diego Bucket Bag, US$825 (Shopbop.com)

Total = US$1,108

Wow, that much; and that doesn’t even include the sunglasses yet. Actually, it’s the designer bag that will really hike up the price. So if you’re up to it, you can buy the rest of the pieces and just replace the Alexander Wang Diego Bucket with an alternative, here are some options for you:

Steve Madden Zipper Studs Crossbody, on sale for US$74; The Sak Studded Small Drawstring, on sale for US$50

(available at Zappos.com)

Now if you want the whole look for a lot less, then go for these instead:

XCVI Reverie Tie Dye Skirt, on sale for US$97 (6pm.com); Hurley Gianna Cami, on sale for US$21 (6pm.com); Madden Girl Alypso Sandals, on sale for US$20 (6pm.com); Fossil Toni Eyewear, US$35 (Zappos.com); The Sak Studded Small Drawstring, on sale for US$50 (Zappos.com)

Total = US$223. And that already includes the eyewear. Not bad!

Is Vanessa Hudgens Wearing the Cleobella Zula Fringe Bag?

Roselle — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 11:35:31 +0000

Disney darling Vanessa Hudgens has a new fringe crossbody favorite; she was spotted toting the fresh baby several times last month. Check out these pictures:

Vanessa Hudgens, May 25

I have a very strong feeling that V’s new fringe crossbody is a Cleobella creation. It is very similar to the Cleobella Zula Fringe Bag, which is available at Shopbop.com for US$310:

Cleobella Zula Fringe Bag, US$310

But unlike the Cleobella Zula which features a studded front patch, the one on Vanessa has a colorful patterned patch.

Here’s a closer look:

Vanessa’s Fringe Bag

I couldn’t help but investigate. First stop was the Cleobella website. I did not find the exact same bag, but I did find a tote with a pattern very close to V’s.

By some sheer luck, I came across Freepeople.com, which offers the Cleobella Daniella Clutch. Boy was I overjoyed to find that it is the same patterned front patch style as Vanessa’s fringe purse. They have it in Black Fringe and Brown Fringe.

As it turns out, the pattern on the front patch varies from bag to bag – part of its hand made and organic quality (ergo, it’s eco friendly).

An image of a model carrying almost the exact same purse as Vanessa’s was the final giveaway that she was indeed carrying the Cleobella Daniella.

So there you have it. Vanessa Hudgens’ crossbody is a Cleobella, but it is not the Zula Fringe Bag; it’s the Daniella Clutch. If you want it, you’re in luck because Freepeople.com is offering it at a discounted price of US$200. But if you prefer the studded Zula, simply visit Shopbop.com.

Vanessa Hudgens’ Illegal Parking and Her Cole Haan Phoebe Crossbody Bag

Erika — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 14:55:55 +0000

Vanessa Hudgens got into some trouble last May 27. She illegally parked her car in a handicapped spot!

I guess it’s not that big of a deal but when you’re a famous celebrity like Vanessa Hudgens, it’s probably not a good idea to do something like this when paparazzi’s on your tail wherever you go. And obviously Vanessa knows it – you can tell by the way she’s shamefully hiding her face behind her hair in these pictures:

Paparazzi may have caught Vanessa doing something illegal, but did she get caught by the cops? Of course not! She’s a celebrity!

Anyway, another crime that’s also been overlooked in these pictures is Vanessa Hudgens’ tall boots. The high heel, slouchy silhouette and studded finish are too much to pair with her flowing gauzy top and shredded jeans. Add to that her long, wavy hair worn loosely and there’s just too much going on here in Vanessa’s look.

Her cross body bag is lovely though, and it looks like it’s made of really luxurious leather:

Vanessa Hudgens’ bag is the Cole Haan Phoebe Crossbody:

Shown here is the black like Vanessa’s, but it’s also available in brown and a distressed white color.

Purchase the Cole Haan Phoebe Crossbody for$228.00 at Zappos.com.

It’s Another Fringed Crossbody for Vanessa Hudgens!

Roselle — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 07:00:24 +0000

We know Vanessa Hudgens is a fan of the fringe, crossbody or otherwise (click here to read article on Vanessa and her collection of fringed crossbody bags). So seeing her wear another fringed number last March 30 (as seen on pictures) was not a surprise.

Vanessa wore a Lucky Brand creation called Get Laced Fringe Crossbody in Western Brown color.

The vintage inspired piece featured scalloped seams and beaded fringes that added to its unique appeal. That and the suede leather material made it the perfect accessory to go with Vanessa’s bohemian style.

Get Vanessa Hudgens’ Summer Style with Kavu Bags

Erika — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 17:21:44 +0000

We know Vanessa Hudgens loves cross body purses, and here she is reinforcing that fact for us just very recently:

Vanessa Hudgens with another one of her beloved cross body purses

This photo was taken just last February 15 when Vanessa joined long-time boyfriend Zac Efron in Sydney, Australia who was there to promote the Oakley into Summer campaign. Vanessa’s loose cotton eyelet top, cutoff denim shorts, big sunglasses, and toussled hair were all perfect for Australia’s summer season. Her tiny knit cross body hip purse was just the thing to keep her credit cards in while she and Zac shopped at an Oakley boutique:

While Australians are enjoying their summer months and we’re all still looking forward to any sign of warmer weather, we can relish the fact that we can use a pretty, colorful mini bag like Vanessa’s whenever we want to.

Stock up on spring/summer essentials now like these fabric mini cross body bags from Kavu:
