Weave Bucket Bags from Jessica Simpson

We’re not really surprised that Jessica Simpson is now earning more money on her fashion line than she does as an entertainer. She’s actually one of the few celebrities who have good merchandise under her brand. We have read some good reviews about her shoes online; plus, looking at the items in her store, we haven’t really seen anything ugly.

In fact, we’re digging this little black clutch from the store:

Dalia Flap Clutch

This Dalia Flap Clutch is a new addition to the store. It is modern clutch with silver accents. This clutch is only $68.

We know you didn’t come to this site to check out sleek clutches so here’s a woven purse from the Jessica Simpson Collection: the Roxy Bucket Purse. It’s a cute bucket bag with a draw-string closure with small tassels.

A Bohemian Bag That Let’s You Do Good

Bohemian dressing never really goes out of style, but they are most perfect for the care-free days of summer. If you’re going on a little outing, a picnic, the flea market, or an outdoor festival, here is a pretty bag that you can carry:

Wayuu Taya Bucket Bag

It’s a bucket bag from Wayuu Taya that we found in Revolve Clothing. When you buy Wayuu Taya bags, you are not only buying a fashion piece, you are also helping the women of the indigenous group Wayuu.

Wayuu Taya Foundation, the non-profit organization that runs the bag-making program, runs a center that helps educate Latin American indigenous women on parenting, nutrition, family planning, and hygiene. A big percentage of the purchase cost of each bag goes back to the program and the indigenous women who make the bags.

Each piece of Wayuu bag is hand-woven and one-of-a-kind. It is the kind of bag that you can expect to last long because of the amount of time it takes to produce each bag.  If you want the Wayuu Taya bag in other colors, you can check out the selection from Shopbop.

To learn more about the Waayu hand-woven bags, visit the Wayuu Taya Foundation website.

Demi Moore’s Luxe Jimmy Choo Woven Bag

Demi Moore looked the part of a true vacation-babe while waiting for a boat in St. Barts on December 29, 2010:

Demi and husband Ashton Kutcher descended upon the Caribbean island to rang in the new year, and was spotted rocking chic vacation styles. One instance was in the above photo when she donned a Missoni maxi dress, black gladiator sandals, large sunglasses, and a neat-looking woven bag.

Don’t you just find Demi’s look so cool and chic? I love everything—the tribal-print maxi dress, the gladiator sandals, and most especially, my eyes are glued to her luxe-looking woven bag. Here’s a look of the beautiful bag up close:

Jimmy Choo Bali Raffia Hobo

Demi’s woven bag is a Jimmy Choo Bali Raffia Hobo that I find so totally adorable! Do you think so, too? The woven raffia material has been considerably softened so it looks more flexible and supple. The black leather trim and the slim strap decorations on the sides are so sophisticated, and give this gorgeous bag that modern rocker-chic edge. It’s looks really elegant that not only is it appropriate for the summer, but for all seasons as well.

The Jimmy Choo Bali Raffia Hobo is available at NeimanMarcus.com for $995.00. For those looking for less-costly alternatives, I couldn’t find one that looks exactly like it, but just take a look at these beautiful woven bags for you might just find something among them that strikes your fancy:
