Here’s Tori Spelling doing some mommy duty with her two kids, Liam and Stella.

Tori Spelling, July 8

The trio were spotted at Petco buying a lizard tank. I just couldn’t help but notice the way Tori was dressed. I love the way she tucked her skinny jeans into those wide cuffed sandals, though I’m not exactly a fan of the tunic top she wore it with.

Of course, I didn’t miss the chain strap crossbody she was toting. I have seen that bag before, while browsing through Shopbop’s inventory of purses; that’s the Made Her Think Alice Bag.

The chain strap is detachable, so it can also function as a clutch when you need the variation.

Like it? It’s sort of pricey, going at about US$548. But if you can afford it, go ahead and make the purchase (Shopbop.com).

If you cannot though, you can opt for these equally appealing substitutes:

If Vanessa Hudgens has the Alexander Wang Diego Bucket Bag, Hilary Duff has the Alexander Wang Rocco Mini Duffel.

Hilary Duff has been spotted carrying her latest handbag craze everywhere and the most often was, believe it or not, to the gym. Check out some of these recent Hilary Duff sightings with her Alexander Wang duffel bag in tow:

July 6, 2010 – Hilary Duff leaving her Pilates class in Toluca Lake, CA (look at the size of that ring on her finger!)

July 1, 2010 – Sisters Haylie and Hilary Duff out in New York City

June 8, 2010 – Hilary leaving a local LA gym with beau Mike Comrie

May 29, 2010 – Hilary grabs an iced drink after a morning run around the Los Angeles, CA area

May 28, 2010 – Hilary Duff leaving Katsuya with Mike Comrie and her mom in Studio City, CA

Hilary Duff’s Alexander Wang bag is gorgeous – it is the IT bag of the moment after all – but I wish Hilary would stop wearing those grey pants with it. Okay she’s seen with the bag at the gym most of the time and those pants may be her favorite gym pants, but she has no excuse for wearing them again to dinner in the May 28 picture.

Hilary Duff, I love you and how you’ve protected your squeaky clean image and all, but it would be nice if you shake things up a bit from time to time even if it’s just in fashion.

The Alexander Wang Rocco Mini Duffel is $875.00 and can be purchased through Shopbop.com.

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).

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

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

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