I have actually two good news for those who’ve been coveting the Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Medium Hobo. The first good news is that it’s now available at Shopbop.com! LeAnn Rimes favorite woven bag can now be snagged in four available versions—Gold Metallic, Silver Metallic, Metallic Twilight, and Black Metallic.

The Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Medium Hobo is still celebrities’ favorite woven purse at the moment. Take a look at how LeAnn Rimes was still toting it while in St. Barts over the Holidays:

Here’s the Gold Metallic version for a closer look:

So what’s your favorite version among the four that I’ve mentioned? Mine would have to be the Silver Metallic. I like the Gold Metalic version for its warm hue, but I love the Silver Metallic variation because I find it more gorgeous and fitting for winter. The light the steely silver brings would look great against dark winter wool coats, and would give the dreary atmosphere a more cheery feel.

But whatever version you choose, I have to say that this bag is amazing overall! The metallic leather is a work of art, and it’s fantastic how the metallic peeks through when you move the bag. It’s great design and functionality rolled into one. The Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Medium Hobo is truly a definite must-have, so grab it while it’s still available, because I’m sure it’ll sell out soon.

Don’t think I have forgotten to tell you the second good news, because I’m on to that next. Here it is: for those who love the glamorous design and fantastic functionality of the Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Medium Hobo, yet find its price too hard on the wallet, here’s a close look-alike for you—the High Fashion 5664 Woven Hobo:

It’s a close call, also great-looking, and—best of all—it comes at a fraction of the Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Medium Hobo.

So grab what suits you. Either way, you’ll look fabulous and chic.

I assume you’re familiar with Malin Akerman–if not by name, then probably by face. Malin’s sweet face had graced quite a number of famous Hollywood Films, including 27 Dresses and last year’s Couples Retreat. Also, she’s the girl who played Ryan Reynold’s ex-girlfriend in The Proposal. Do you remember her now? If not still, then this image of her might just remind you:

Much as I love giving you more tidbits about Malin Akerman, we’re really not here for that. We’d rather be talking now about woven purses–Malin Akerman’s Dolce & Gabbana Satchel Lassie Sicily purse, in particular: Take a good look:

Here’s the store photo:

Notice something? Yes, it’s crochet! And it’s actually not the first time that this satchel’s been out and about in public. Earlier this year, several stars have totted the Dolce & Gabbana Satchel Lassie Sicily. Take a look:

Victoria Beckham looks posh with it, while Ashley Greene’s version added a chic element to her cool downtown look. As for Madonna, the bag definitely gave her appearance a glamorous boost.

So do you like the Dolce & Gabbana Satchel Lassie Sicily? It’s quite easy to warm up to this trendy crochet purse. It has a long strap and a handle that makes it versatile to be carried on the shoulder or on the crook of your arm. Plus, it’s crochet element makes it quite lovable. Well, it won’t be last spring’s must-have bag for nothing. But, I can’t say the same thing with it’s price. It’s currently not available anywhere, but it was last retailed for $1,695.00. Farfetch.com says it’s out of stock, so even if you’re well able to buy it, you’d have to wait for stocks to arrive. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don’t.

While LeeAnn Rimes is still very much under public scrutiny for her controversial hook-up with current boyfriend Eddie Cibrian, that just doesn’t stop her from getting fab with her Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Large Gold Bag.

LeeAnn globe-trotted with this celebrities’ current favorite purse. She was seen shopping in Malibu, CA with her Diane von Furstenberg purse just a few days ago, and was also spotted making her way through an airport in Canada with said purse in tow. Here’s a closer look at the Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Large Gold Bag:

I must admit that this purse looks appealing. The knitted metallic leather is unique and eye-catching, while the slouchy hobo style makes for an easy wear.
