Sienna Miller looked happy as she walked to the 54th International Art Exhibition held at the La Biennale in Venice, Italy yesterday (November 2). The actress went to the art exhibit with her boyfriend Tom Sturridge.
Sienna had on blue denims and an off-white sweater and carried a simple black weave bag with leather handles and gold hardware.

We were able to ID Sienna’s bag but have been unable to track it online. We just know that the bag is from Miu Miu because of the raised logo lettering of the brand.
We did find two woven bags from the same brand from Bluefly:
Miu Miu Cornhusk Woven Convertible
This black bag is made of cornhusk exterior with leather trim. The bag has a flap with a turn-lock closure. At the back of the bag there is a raised logo lettering. The bag has a detachable strap so you can convert this top-handle tote into a shoulder bag. The bag sells for $1,116.
Here’s another woven bag from Miu Miu.
Miu Miu Beige Rafia Belted Tote
This bag is also $1,116. It is made of beige raffia and brown leather trim. The bag has a top-handle with two fold-over straps in front. The bag has a metal logo lettering at the top.

We already featured this bag last month; but because it’s the first time we spotted a celebrity carrying the bag, we decided to show the Rebecca Minkoff woven satchel again here at Woven Purses.

We can’t find the gray version of the bag, so once again , here’s the black version which is available in Bloomingdales:
Rebecca Minkoff Flame Basket Weave Satchel
When the bags are side-by-side, you can really see that the bag Michelle Trachtenberg was carrying is this Rebecca Minkfoff satchel. Just take a look at it:

Katherine Heigl dashed off to sunny Sunshine State Florida for some R&R a few days ago with husband Josh Kelley and mom Nancy.

Katherine was spotted soaking up the sun on March 18 in Miami (right photo), and doing some shopping on March 20 around town (left photo).
Spot the bag that Katherine was toting on those two occasions. It’s a beautiful straw tote in cognac from Prada, and here’s a closer look:

Prada Straw Tote
How do you like it? It’s not your ordinary straw bag for it looks elegant. The cognac color is quite posh, and the combination of the cognac body and the cream-colored top handles is just right. It may not be apparent from the picture, but its handles actually have a web design. All in all, it’s a bag that’s not only perfect for a beach or tropical getaway, but would also serve well as an everyday go-to purse.
If you love this Prada Straw Tote, you can shop for one at Saks Fifth Avenue for $880.00. If you find it too pricey for your taste, then check out the lovely straw bags we’ve featured in our previous post.
