I like it when celebrity gossip sites identify the clothes and accessories celebrities are wearing in paparazzi pictures because it makes things a whole lot easier. Jenna Dewan for example, was seen shopping with husband Channing Tatum last Sunday while carrying a Moni Moni Cascade Bag:

This is Jenna Dewan’s bag by the way, in “Fauve”:

Jenna Dewan’s exact color isn’t available anymore but they do have it in black. This bag retails for $550.00 at MoniMoni.com.

Although finding a similar alternative to this bag is a bit difficult, it does remind me of a few bags we’ve featured here on Fringe Handbags before.

First is the Cleobella Alive Fringe Tote Kim Kardashian is modelling in this post. It’s got the similar taupe color and the same all-over fringe placement.

Second is the flap fringe bags from Bulga Handbags. The Bulga Handbags don’t have fringe loops, but they do have swathes of fabric covering the front and back of the bags.

Lastly, it reminds me of the Latico Le Cirque Leather Fringe Clutch but ONLY because of the fringe loops and nothing else. The fringe loops on the Moni Moni bag look buttery soft while the fringe loops on the Latico Le Cirque clutch looks like they’ve gone haywire.

Fringe loops on handbags is starting to grow on me but I still have that fear of them getting caught on door handles and what not while I’m using one. Maybe if they were shorter like on this Betsey Johnson Looped Together Drawstring Bag:

But I guess you lose the beautiful cascading effect.

The Betsey Johnson Looped Together Drawstring Bag is $332.00 and comes in black, pink and white at Zappos.com.

EDIT: Thank you Laurie McFadin of SL McFadin for giving this bag its rightful name! Brittany Snow’s bag also comes in many different sizes and leather colors, as well as the shoulder straps which can either be plain or embellished with antique brass studs like Brittany’s.

Sisters Stacy and Laurie McFadin are the brilliant designers behind the McFadin brand and they make all of their one-of-a-kind bags in Texas. Check out more at SLMcFadin.com.

Vanessa Hudgens doesn’t only share the same taste in handbags with Ashley Tisdale, she also shares it with another one of her BFFs Brittany Snow.

Fellow actresses Vanessa and Brittany were spotted in Los Angeles on Wednesday afternoon, slipping in some much needed girl time into their busy schedules:

Looks like the reigning queen of fringe purses Vanessa Hudgens has turned Brittany Snow on to her favorite handbag style! These two could trade purses with each other and still have perfectly matched outfits. I wonder if having the same taste in fashion was the reason these two became good friends in the first place?

Anyway, after going through all the pictures in this set, I’ve finally settled on the maker/brand of Brittany Snow’s brown fringe handbag. It’s the Austin Fringed Bag from SL McFadin available at Free People, shown here in golden brown:

The studded side of the vintage belt strap on Brittany Snow’s bag is flipped over, but you can see a bit of it here in this close-up shot:

Thank god for celebrity websites that provide hi-res shots of paparazzi pictures!

Get the SL McFadin Austin Fringed Bag for $298.00 at FreePeople.com.
