That’s it, guys–another Paris fashion Week is in the books. It’s always the most glamorous of the four global fashion weeks, and it always attracts the most celebrities and fashion insiders (and, of course, their best bags) of the four fashion month pitstops. Below, as we always, do, we’ve collected dozens of the most impressive handbag looks for your perusal.
Miroslava Duma
Chanel Pearl Minaudiere
Last season, Mira was pregnant and giving everyone a lesson in maternity dressing. this time around, she’s back to her normal (fabulous) wardrobe.
Carmen Kass
Chanel Watercolor mini classic Flap Bag
Lately it’s very fashionable to bring back previous eras’
Lou Doillon
Chanel Cage Minaudiere
Karl Lagerfeld loves nothing more than Frenchness, and Lou is extremely French.
Anna Dello Russo
Chanel Woven classic Flap Bag
For all I can tell, Anna might be hiding three or four bags in there somewhere.
Chiara Ferragni
Chanel Flap Bag
Perhaps it’s just been a very long, exhausting month, but I’m not as into Chiara’s PFW outfits as much as I was those from MFW and NYFW.
Gwei Lun-Mei
Louis Vuitton petite Malle Clutch
$5,200 via Louis Vuitton
One of my favorite things about the international fashion weeks is the international celebrities; Gwei Lun-Mei is a Taiwanese actress.
Adèle Exarchopoulos
Louis Vuitton Dora Malletage Bag
The crocodile version of this bag retails for a cool $50k.
Catherine Deneuve
Louis Vuitton petite Malle Soft Clutch
$3,600 via Louis Vuitton
Spotting this living legend is one of my favorite parts of Paris fashion Week every season.
Princesse Sirivannavari Nariratana of Thailand
Louis Vuitton x Frank Gehry Twisted monogram Box Bag
In relatively few situations does actual royalty mingle with fashion bloggers.
Selena Gomez
Louis Vuitton petite Malle Bag
$5,200 via Louis Vuitton
Every designer has his preferred muses; Nicolas Ghesquiere seems to prefer brunettes.
Fan Bing Bing
Louis Vuitton petite Malle Soft GM
$4,150 via Louis Vuitton
Everyone at the PurseBlog offices is a bag fan of the new monogram Infrarouge.
Chloe Moretz
Louis Vuitton twist Bag
$3,550 via Louis Vuitton
I expected Chloe to show up for Chanel’s show, but instead we caught her carrying some Louis Vuitton.
Helena Bordon
Louis Vuitton petite Malle Bag
$5,200 via Louis Vuitton
I don’t…know what’s going on with these jeans.

If you know who this lovely young woman is, please help us out. (UPDATE: It’s Imogen Poots! Thanks, ladies.)
Brie Larson
Miu Miu Matelasse Clutch
Shop Miu Miu via Saks
Brie is, by far, the least amused person to ever attend a fashion show.
Sama Abu Khadra
Chanel Mini -Tasche
These twins from Saudi Arabia are students at USC, but they’re also budding fashion industry It Girls.
Renée Zellweger
Miu Miu mini frame Bag
Shop Miu Miu via Saks
This whole look is excellent, from the bangs to the bag.
Solange Knowles
Tonya Hawkes Tutti Frutti Clutch
$1,145 via farfetch.com
Solange is a big supporter of inventive indie designers like Hawkes.
Natalia Vodianova
Louis Vuitton Dora Malletage Bag
With photos like this, it’s hard to resist Nicolas Ghesquiere’s new Louis Vuitton.
Kendall Jenner
Céline Nano Luggage Tote
You could throw away every other bag in Kendall’s closet besides this one and I don’t think she’d be too upset.
Lady Gaga
Balenciaga Neo classic mini Chain Bag
$1,635 via Balenciaga
Lady Gaga was not the first star I’d expect to see at a Balenciaga show, but she made quite a splash there this year.
Chanel classic Flap Bag
The street style stars at NYFW could learn a thing or two about how to be chic and warm from this woman.
Christian Dior lady Dior Tote
We try to choose photos where both the bag and its carrier look good, but when we have to choose one or the other, we choose the bag. (Sorry, stars.)
Hailee Steinfeld
Christian Dior Diorama Bag
We had to make no such decision here, obviously.
Aymeline Valade
Christian Dior Clutch
It seems like everyone in fashion is going platinum.
Hanneli Mustaparta
Christian Dior lady Dior mini Tote
It wouldn’t surprise me if Hanneli were next.
Tatiana Pauhofova
Christian Dior Diorama Bag
Count Tatiana among the many international celebs invited to Paris shows–she’s a Slovak actress.
Marjorie Harvey
Christian Dior lady Dior Bag
It’s hard to tell from the photo, but I believe this bag is exotic. Either that, or Marjorie has both a regular leather and an alligator lady Dior, which probably isn’t out of the question.
Kristina Bazan
Christian Dior Be Dior Bag
Kristina’s a veyr popular blogger, but for some reason, this is the only picture we found of her from Paris.
Marisa Berenson
Christian Dior Diorama Bag
Fun fact: Marisa is Elsa Schiaparelli’s granddaughter, which makes her fashion royalty.

Sylvia Toledano X-Pop girl Swarovski Clutch
$2,165 via Net-a-Porter
There’s a lot going on here.
Solange Knowles

Karlie seems to get blonder by the day.
Chanel Pearl Clutch
I don’t know if this whole look is Chanel, but if feels very Chanel.

Fendi Karlito Bag Bug
The most interesting thing about this look is that Anna seems to have a plain white t-shirt on under it all.
Katy Perry
Valentino Rockstud mini Backpack
$2,945 via Saks
In this photo, Katy’s coming out of the Givenchy offices; they made her ditch the Valentino bag between there and the show.
Melissa Georgia
Céline classic Box Bag
Is it just me, or is this the biggest classic Box Bag you’ve ever seen?
Marjorie Harvey
Fendi Micro Peekaboo Bag
$1,550 via Nordstrom
Fendi Bag Bug
$900 via Saks
Mini bags are now so mini that they are now smaller than the decorative bag charms that adorn them.
Lorde
Chloé Drew Bag
$2,397 via MyTheresa
Chloé outfitted a veritable army of celebs with Drews for its show; you will see more very shortly.

Poppy Delevingne
Chloé Drew Bag
$1,750 via Saks
Drew Number Two.
Hofit Golan
Salvatore Ferragamo Sofia Bag
$2,250 via Nordstrom
Hofit, an Israeli TV presenter, must have a stockpile of Sofias.
Olivia Palermo
Chloé Drew Bag
$1,950 via Net-a-Porter
We saw a lot of photos of Olivia without bags this season, so we’re glad Chloé sent her a Drew for the occasion.
Chiara Ferragni
Chloé Drew Snakeskin Bag
$2,397 via MyTheresa
I wonder how brands decide which attendees get the exotic bags and which have to settle for regular leather.
Anna Dello Russo
Saint Laurent Studded Bamboo Basket
Shop Saint Laurent via Saks
This bag, which is now sold out, was inspired by the basket Jane Birkin used to carry around. (Before she had, you know, a Birkin.)
Georgia may Jagger
Most of the bags at PFW were easy to identify, but I can’t exactly say who made this one. It looks similar, but not the same, to a new line from Nina Ricci.
Elena Perminova
Chloé Faye Suede Bag
Shop Chloé via MATCHESFASHION.COM
The Faye is Chloé’s most prominent spring 2015 launch, so I’m surprised we didn’t see it in the hands of more attendees.
Amanda Seyfried
Givenchy Antigona floral Zip Pouch
Shop via MATCHESFASHION.COM
Givenchy invites a ton of celebs to its shows, but it rarely sends them bags to carry for the occasion. Amanda’s was the only one we caught.
Nancy Shevell
Stella McCartney mini Falabella Bag
$1,055 via Saks
Nancy is Stella’s stepmom.
Stella McCartney
Stella McCartney Leopard Bag
Shop Stella McCartney via Saks
When you are Stella, you carry Stella.

It’s not all that often that I can’t identify one of Leigh’s bags; she’s usually carrying something from the designer whose show she’s attending, but that’s not the case here.
Kris Jenner
Fendi small By The way Bag
$2,500 via Saks
I would really like to try on this lipstick.
Helena Bordon
Fendi mini Baguette Bag
$1,700 via Saks
Perhaps this is news only to me, but I had no idea that Helena is Brazilian. (Or maybe I knew and forgot?)
Chiara Ferragni
Fendi Micro Peekaboo Bag
$1,550 via Nordstrom
This little bag has been in Chiara’s rotation since new York fashion Week.
Lindsey Wixson
Fendi mini Orchid Peekaboo
$3,950 via Saks
Lindsey’s face is so interesting that sometimes I find myself just staring at her.

Salma’s a very supportive wife; she’s constantly repping the brands her husband’s company owns.
Laura Bailey
Chanel mini camera Bag
Laura’s a former model who’s made a nice transition to writing for UK Vogue.
Caroline de Maigret
Chanel messenger Bag
Caroline and Lou Doillon have the same perfectly messy French haircut.
Leigh Lezark
Chanel boy Bag
You can tell by the way the bag has molded to fit against Leigh’s body that she’s had it for a while instead of receiving it just for the show.
Kendall Jenner
Chanel mini classic Flap Bag
Kendall rarely strays from her favorite black Céline, but if you’re going to get along with Karl, you have to play by his rules sometimes.
Hofit Golan
If you’re still unsure of why Hofit pops up everywhere, the Telegraph has a quick explainer.
Chanel Flap Bag
For some reason, no one got this woman’s name, despite the fact that she was photographed extensively at the Chanel show.
Alessandra Mastronardi
Chanel 11.12 classic Flap Bag
I just can’t get enough of these chevron-quilted classic Flaps. They feel more modern than the diamond versions.
Marie Ange Casta
Chanel vote Coco Clutch
We didn’t see these zip clutches on the runway last season, but Chanel made sure to outfit several celebs with them for the fall 2015 show so we’dall notice.
Poppy Delevingne
Chanel boy brick Clutch
Poppy’s life of a show-going socialite seems a lot more relaxed than that of her supermodel little sister, Cara.
Yi Zhou
Chanel Quilted Clutch
I’m not sure that the shape of this suit (dress?) does Yi Zhou justice, but the colors sure are pretty.
Josephine Japy
Chanel Tweed indeed Clutch
It’s nice to see one of Karl’s favorite French girls look so fresh-faced and happy.
Yao Chen
Chanel boy Lock mini Flap Bag
Yao is a Chinese actress and social media star–she has more followers than anyone else on Sina Weibo.
Isabella Manfredi
Chanel Accordion Flap Bag
Isabella is the leader of an Australian band called The Preatures.
Florence Welch
Chanel Zip Clutch
Florence is so lovely; this beauty look (or lack thereof) does not do her justice.
Alma Jodorowsky
Chanel Flap Bag
We had to visit one more French actress before we left Chanel.
Jennifer Connelly
Louis Vuitton SC Satchel
Jennifer is the most famous face of Vuitton’s current campaign, and she looks incredibly cool exiting the airport in black leather.
Solange Knowles
We’ve been unable to find any information on who made this unique bag, but it does have a small, debossed “TT” logo near the bottom.
Selena Gomez
Louis Vuitton monogram Empreinte Lumineuse Tote
$2,960 via Louis Vuitton
Louis Vuitton seems to have been the only brand that thought to outfit its stars with bags for the journey to Paris.
Olivia Palermo
Valentino Glam Lock mini Bag
$1,522 via farfetch.com
I know we’re here to talk about bags, but instead, I’d like to talk about Olivia’s perfect skin.
Kate Mara
Valentino Rivet shoulder Bag
$2,295 via MyTheresa
I’m mildly surprised these Valentino bags aren’t more popular–they’re super cute.
Hofit Golan
Hermès Birkin
We didn’t see a whole lot of Hermès at this season’s shows, for some reason.
Miroslava Duma
Louis Vuitton x Frank Gehry Twisted monogram Box Bag
I never like this style of glasses on anyone, but somehow, they look totally perfect on Mira.

The Valentino show is always a great opportunity to gawk at the brand’s intricately detailed dresses, both on and off the runway.
Nicky Hilton
Valentino Lock mini shoulder Bag
$2,445 via Neiman Marcus
Verstehst du, was ich meine?
Ben Stiller
Valentino Camouflage Backpack
$2,295 via Neiman Marcus
This season, Valentino did the impossible–it upstaged Chanel by having Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson reprise their Zoolander characters.
Rihanna
Chanel girl Bag
Earlier this week, one of you wondered in the comments who would be the first celeb to carry the girl bag. Well, here’s your answer. (As if it could have been anyone else.)
