Then there is her $400 tote bag which highly resembles a bag your mom would buy in China town to carry her yarn and knitting needles:
Another bag you most likely wont have any interest in carrying, Moschino's Leather Doggy Bag which retails for $1400:
I really want to know how many of these they sell and if they sell I HAVE to meet one of the buyers just so I can say "WTF is wrong with you?"

The Bancroft family, which controls Dow Jones & Co., "has accepted" News Corp.'s $5 billion offer to buy the publisher of the Wall Street Journal, an executive of a Dow Jones unit said on Tuesday. 
This is one Paris hasnt done before. Acoording to WWD, the licensing machine is launching an eponymous line of high-end footwear. This is in addition to her sportswear, watches, handbags, fragrances and dvd collection. "My goal is to create a stylish and fun fashion line from head to toe," said Hilton in a statement from Antebi Group, a footwear manufacturing company based in New York, which is producing the shoes. "Antebi Group really understand my vision for this line as well as the needs for the fashion-forward young woman." Platforms, stilettos, wedges and other signature Hilton styles will hit stores early next year. There will also be a sport line — all the better if one has to walk a straight line for Los Angeles Highway Patrol.
Saturday am I went to the cutest 1st birthday imaginable!! My little nephew is the cutest baby in the world, no seriously he is, and his mom threw quite the shindig. Afterwards I met up with the z, mich, deb and haley for an afternoon walk on La Brea. On our way to American Rag we ran into none other than Kanye West who happened to be dining with Common, Kings of Chicago! They are the real deal. After the girls made a few purchases we were off to Senora for afternoon cocktails. On our way back we stopped by the Merry Karnowsky Gallery for a Gen Art outing. We continued our attempt to get home when we ran into a statue of Homer Simpson, photo shoot time!! Haley please send us the pics!! Tired and ready to chill we went to Sycamore then home. Bed early on a Saturday is heaven. Sunday was Campanile brunch with the cousins who got me the most amazing book. Its called Post Secret and it has pages full of homemade post cards filled with anonymous secrets. Turns out they have a blog: postsecret.blogspot.com. Its a new addiction, thank you Stevie and Marisa!!
Amongst the book one of my other favorite gifts was Z's, she made me 3 amazing cds which I haven't stopped listening to and got me a Pegah Anvarian scarf that I'm absolutely obsessed with!! Thank you lover!!My mom is taking me to Wicked and Jersey Boys, I cant wait!! 
Vanity Fair has been naming the best dressed public figures for almost seven decades and the time has come for the awaited 2007 best dressed list. The list is compiled through votes in a poll given to fashion professionals, editors, retailers, etc. Chosen for individual sense of style without a stylist in conjunction with looking appropriate this September a number of Condé Nasters make the cut, including some from VF's own masthead. Fashion and style director Michael Roberts, Vanity Fair contributing editor Lisa Eisner and photographer at large Jonathan Becker appear, as do Mitch Glazer, Hollywood producer and close friend of Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter, and his wife, actress Kelly Lynch. Glazer is editing the magazine for Condé Nast Media Group's latest brand extension, "Movies Rock." Corporate cousin Vogue is also well represented, with Teen Vogue editor in chief Amy Astley; Vogue style director Alexandra Kotur; Marina Rust Connor, Vogue contributing editor, and Bee Shaffer, daughter of Vogue editor in chief Anna Wintour. (Of note: Shaffer does not list her mother as a fashion icon in her blurb — instead opting for Joan Didion, Irving Penn and her sister-in-law, Kathryn Neale, but she does admit to borrowing her mother's sunglasses.)
We reported the launch of Twenty8Twelve months ago and it finally happened!! Invited but unable to make it WWD reported on all the details: 
The messenger, the backpack, some boxey, many printed with flowers, they all had one thing in common, kate spade NEW YORK. Kate Spade bags were an absolute must during their time, if you carried a Kate you carried her proud. Ill never forget the first time I wore mine, I went to a party in the Valley on a cool summer evening, my arch rival was there and I flaunted my new bag like a 4 karat diamond. What a joy to see the jealous look on her face! Girls are so cruel, arent we?
VF Corp. has reached agreements in principle to acquire Seven For All Mankind and Lucy Activewear. Congratulations Koral family (the owners of seven)!! We are thrilled for you however this is truly a said day for those that have reaped the seven for all mankind family friends benefits for all of these years. You see, we are friends with the owners son and therefore own 100's of sevens, literally. Not only did I intern for the company during a college summer but I sold the jeans out of my sorority. Chances were, if you saw a girl on campus wearing sevens they came from me. I was the jean lord.

Im personally loving the Elisha, I have a weakness for extra large bags and there is something about Navy that Im completely attracted to. Its kind of the new brown. Plus, the bag is only $585 which ya is like 182 grande lattes but whatever, if I drink coffee at home for half the year it makes up for it!
Take me to shop Rebecca Minkoff now! 
According to WWD, Diane von Furstenberg formed a licensing partnership with footwear manufacturer and distributor Schwartz & Benjamin to launch DVF Shoes for spring. "I wanted to create shoes for the woman on-the-go and always on her feet," von Furstenberg said of the collection, which will range from sandals to heels.
