Rachel Bilson is MOCA-tastic!

Rachel Bilson attended the MOCA Gala held last November 13 in a fabulous dress from Chanel’s Spring 2011 collection, coupled with a pair of chain strapped sandals from Camilla Skovgaard. Altogether, you could say she was a stunning vision in vintage yellow.

The stylish lass knew when to kick it up a notch and when to keep it down. With her vintage inspired yellow frock already looking fabulous and busy alongside the equally appealing chain strapped sandals, Rachel opted for a classic black clutch to go with the whole look instead.

But, it wasn’t just any black clutch, it was a woven clutch; which was just as well because it complemented with the whole vintage look.

Just a few weeks ago, we featured Rachel Bilson and her 2010 Spring Woven Chanel Tote. We had a strong feeling that it wasn’t her first woven piece, so we did a search.

And guess what? Here’s the ultimate proof that Rachel Bilson’s love for woven bags goes way back. And we mean seasons back. Check out these pictures of Rachel carrying two different styles of Zac Posen bags, both of which are woven:

Looks like Rachel Bilson has a new favorite purse – the 2010 Spring Woven Chanel Tote. She has been spotted sporting this country looking piece for the past few days. Check out these photos:

This girl sure loves Chanel; quite an expensive taste, if I may say. We saw her using a Chanel 2.55 Flap Bag last month (click here to read article), now she’s toting the brand’s latest spring purse.

The new woven Chanel tote isn’t in any way super extra-ordinary looking, but it does have some whimsical and dainty appeal to it. Plus, wearing it does fit the season. The material is actually made of fabric, though it appears to be made of straw from afar. What identifies the piece as Chanel are the tweed flower appliqués, the Chanel pendant, and the leather interlaced chain strap.

Knowing how Chanel bags can be ridiculously expensive (always over a US$1000++), looking for a more affordable option is always the alternative. Here are several quality woven designer pieces that will give you the same look without the hefty price tag:

Cole Haan Halsley Straw Tote, US$198

Francesco Biasia Claire Hobo, US$148

MICHAEL Michael Kors Braided Gromet Straw Large Shoulder, US$328
