The similarities also extend to the fact that both are  meticulously hand-crafted.)

Jessica Alba sports a lot of handbags, but one that has caught our attention is this crochet bag which she toted around for a while.

Apart from the headbands, the one other constant companion Jessica has in these photos is this bag. We found out that this is a Ferragamo Gancio Crochet Bag. The bag looks exquisite, and it is clear to see she loves using it to complete her look

Speaking of the look, I’m guessing she’s either channeling ‘gypsy’ or ‘summer in the country’. Either way, she looks good with her colorful headbands and hoop earrings.

If you want Jessica’s bag but can’t afford it (priced at US$1500++), then I suggest you grab any of these equally appealing alternatives:

Flora Bella Santorini, US$120

This brand practically sells every type of native woven bag offered in the market – from rattan, to corn husk, to wheat straw.

With so many styles to choose from, selecting the perfect native bag may tend to get a little confusing. To make your life easier, I pre-selected a few styles that I found classy enough to be worn even if you’re in the city. Here they are:

Before purchasing your choice however, make sure you know exactly what you want in a native bag. That way, you will know what to look for.

A popular red carpet companion among A-list stars is the Bottega Veneta Knot.

The popularity of this tiny box purse can be clearly seen on the countless red carpet celebrity pictures some of which are shown below. I understand why of course, apart from the fact that it is made by the iconic brand Bottega Veneta, the Knot looks classy, dressy, and versatile enough to be worn with different styles of red carpet dresses. And because Bottega offers this in different colors, the Knot usually ends up becoming the first accessory of choice to match.

If you are looking into getting the same red carpet look but don’t want to spend too much for a small box that will only store your lipstick and compact, then I suggest you buy the Prezzo 38.

Similar to the Bottega Veneta Knot, the Prezzo 38 also features hand woven detailing minus the celebrity price. Plus, it is slightly bigger so you can actually store your Blackberry, car keys, credit cards, and some bills in there too.

The deal breaker is its price, of course. The Prezzo 38 will only cost you a meager US$31. Now that’s a SUPER STEAL!

The Prezzo 38 comes in four (4) beautiful colors so you have more options to choose from. I’m sure you’ll find at least one that will match your outfit. My personal favorite however, is the black.

You can purchase the Prezzo 38 at Bagsbuy.com. Enjoy their free shipping service. That means you save MORE, all you will spend is just US$31!
