Guess who got herself a new boyfriend? It’s none other than Ke$ha:

It also looks like Ke$ha has got herself a new fringe bag at the event too and that we got ourselves another fringe handbag celebrity fan:

I’m a bit confused though. The picture above clearly shows that Ke$ha has an embroidered tan fringe sling bag, but this next picture shows that it’s also a pouch bag with a furry white tassel keychain:

Another view of Ke$ha’s bag or another one of Ke$ha’s fringe bags?

Is Ke$ha’s bag a mishmash of two handbag styles or is Ke$ha carrying two totally different bags?

I’m going to need more pictures and I will be looking for more, but before I do that, let me leave you with these 4 boho fringe bags that could be Ke$ha’s own bag if they were all mixed up together:

1. Lucky Brand Get Laced Fringe Crossbody, $98.95
2. Free People Festival Beaded Pouch, $168.00
3. Free People Suede Medicine Bag, $68.00
4. The Sak Freebird Spirited Small Drawstring, $35.99

Ke$ha’s sure got a knack for wearing clothes and accessories that are hard to identify!

Wow, we haven’t seen this celebrity in a while.

Elizabeth Berkley was seen out and about in LA last August 2. Her hair was just in a ponytail and she was just dressed down in a tank top, jeans and flip flops, but her fringe bag in a fiery engine red color was attention-grabbing enough for everything else:

Elizabeth Berkley’s fringe bag is really, really red but I actually quite like it. Granted that I would probably only use an accessory in that color when I’m just dressed down too, but it really does successfully add that POP of color that a simple outfit like Elizabeth’s needs.

Elizabeth Berkley is carrying the Madewell Fringe Hobo:

I don’t know why it looks less red in this picture but anyway, guess what this color’s name is? Red Hot!

This “buttery as can be” leather fringe handbag is embellished with antiqued nickel hardware on the straps and raw fringe on its edges. It’s currently on sale (yay!) at 30% off at Shopbop.com with only 2 pieces left! You can also get the Flint (a grey color) at Madewell.com but it’s still at full price at $198.00.

Red or grey – either way, it’s a great-looking fringe bag!

I tried ID’ing this fringe messenger bag but you can never be sure with someone like Ke$ha who has an affinity for um, used clothing and the trashy chic style. She even openly declares her love for dumpster diving.

“My favorite stuff that I’ve ever found has been from trash cans,” Ke$ha says to WWD, “and I bought this incredible vest off a homeless guy recently.”

I don’t know about going through clothes in donation boxes that are meant for people who really need them, but I respect Ke$ha’s art and unique sense of style enough for me to actually type her name with the dollar sign.

This is Ke$ha’s fringe handbag that I’m trying to put a name on:

August 1, 2010 – Ke$ha makes her way through LaGuardia airport in New York City with her bodyguard

June 21, 2010 – Ke$ha hits a car rental place after attending a Gulf Telethon at “Larry King Live” studios

Here’s a closer look:

Just based on these pictures, it seems that this bag is a mix of some type of glittery fabric, leather and suede. The strap has to be fabric in order to Ke$ha to tie a knot in it like that, the cracked body appears to be leather, and the swingy fringes are clearly suede.

I have yet to find out who makes this bag but if this is one of those things that Ke$ha got from a trash can, then well, great find Ke$ha.

Here are 3 fringe handbags that are similar to Ke$ha’s that are thankfully a lot easier – and cleaner – to find:

1. Nino Bossi Oyster Leather Small Fringe Handbag, $148.00; 2. Prezzo 3409 Double Layer Fringe Messenger Bag, $25.45; 3. Prezzo Fringe Tote, $33.60

Number 1 and number 3 are on sale and if you head on over to IrvsLuggage.com (the website from where number 1 is), you can get an extra 20-75% off when you enter the code SUM15 at checkout. Take advantage of that hot summer sale!
