Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Bags

A bag as big as this is a little hard to miss:

Khloe Kardashian in Miami to film at their new boutique on South Beach (May 18, 2009)

Jennifer Lopez filming a scene for “The Back-Up Plan” (July 22, 2009)

Jessica Biel at an office building in Santa Monica (January 29, 2009)

Maybe that’s why it became the must-have handbag around this time last year?

If you don’t recognize it yet, the bag that Khloe Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, and Jessica Biel are carrying is the Stephanie bag by Diane von Furstenberg. It’s not a new bag by any means – the pictures above are between 8 months to a year old – although as I’ve said, it was the It handbag for pre-fall 2009.

I want to bring up this Diane von Furstenberg purse in this blog again because the designer has recently released easier to manage (read: smaller) versions of this extremely oversized handbag. You won’t be able to fit your kitchen sink in them anymore, but I think the new designs are much cuter with their wide array of colors and an added fringe tassel pull closure.
