    Well, well, well -- somebody certainly seems to have a keen sense of how to please the ladies. (Out of the bedroom, of course.) Since he's a total gem-of-a-guy, Bachelor Sean Lowe bought Catherine Giudici a handbag for her birthday -- but it's not just any old purse.

    Nope. He hooked her up with a Louis Vuitton bag, so now she'll fit in perfectly with all the other designer handbag carrying ladies out in L.A.

    And his reasoning for splurging on such a pricey gift is the perfect combination of sweet -- and really sad.

    I know she's a reality TV star and she's loaded and has a really fancy wardrobe, but I had no idea just how lavish her style really is until I saw this video tour of Kim Kardashian's closets. Yes, I said closets.

    Kim's wardrobe is so massive and expensive that she has not one, but two closets in her home -- both of which rival the size of a small bedroom.

    If you're wondering why exactly she needs two closets, it's because her shoe, clothes, and handbag collections are just way too large to fit into one walk-in.

    She reportedly only received about $400,000 per year in child support in her divorce from Tom Cruise, but a new report indicates that Katie Holmes will get to keep jewelry, designer handbags, and other accessories worth millions of dollars. (If you can't be a millionaire, looking like one is almost as good.)

    Katie received plenty of lavish presents from Tom over the five years they were married, and asking for her to give those tokens of affection back would've made him look pretty nasty. And since the general consensus seems to be that Katie busted out of prison when she filed for divorce from Tom, I'm guessing the last thing he needs is for people to perceive him as a huge jerk.

    Every woman loves a great purse. It's like your best friend, right? You seek out one that has the qualities that match your personality. You want to be with it all the time. Mad Men star Christina Hendricks, well, she has interesting taste in "best friends." Expensive taste, actually. The star was spotted out and about in Beverly Hills on Monday carrying a bag that's worth more than a year's rent. Ready for the heavy price tag? A whopping $23,980.

    I can't. Why does ANYONE need a $23,000+ bag? My brand new Jetta didn't even cost $24,000 -- and I ordered it with special options! A sun roof, people!

    The black-and-silver Forbod Barsum tote is made with alligator skin. But can we be real? It doesn't look like anything special. For $23,000+, one would think it was a modern-day version of Mary Poppins' bag, allowing the user to pull out a never ending stream of complimentary beverages, jewels, heck whatever you damn well please.

    I don't know. I smell a little bit of a publicity stunt.

    Snaptotes diaper photo bagPicking out the perfect diaper bag to tote around all of your baby's essentials can be a lot of fun, but with so many choices on the market, sometimes finding an ideal bag can be a bit overwhelming. And on top of that, sometimes it's tough to find a diaper bag that not only has plenty of room for everything you need, but also looks fashionable with whatever you happen to be wearing on any given day. (Face it ladies -- teddy bear patterns aren't exactly flattering.)

    Luckily, plenty of diaper bag designers have wised up in the past few years and realized that having a baby doesn't have to alter a mom's chic sense of style.

    Take the Snaptotes bag ($110) pictured for example -- there's nothing more trendy and unique than having your own baby's picture on the front of your diaper tote!

    Staple pieces. Every woman's got one, two, or all of 'em. (OK, fine. I have them all.) There's the little black dress, a snug bra, and a pair of jeans perfectly tailored to move with your body & flatter your butt. You know what I'm talking about, right?

    I wear my staple pieces almost every day -- to work, on a first date, to a job interview, out to a party ... I'm always wearing something that I've had in my closet for years. In my favorite pair of black skinnies, I just feel comfortable and sexy. And they fit me like a glove. For so long, though, black was the go-to staple piece. You couldn't go wrong with an LBD and a pair of black slacks. I'll admit, it was getting a little boring in the style world for a minute.

    But not anymore!

    How about some color! How about some sex appeal! How about 8 fun and stylish staple pieces to give your wardrobe all the oomph it needs?! Check these out:

    A new report is claiming that Bethenny Frankel carries around knock-off designer handbags, and of course, she's getting tons of grief for it. A source insists that Bethenny has someone come to her home to sell her bags that aren't authentic, and adds, "The bags are the highest-quality knockoffs from China; it’s really tough to tell the difference."

    Ok, so if it's next to impossible to tell the real bags from the knock-offs, then why is there any problem with Bethenny choosing to carry the fakes -- and save herself a ton of cash? Honestly, hearing that Bethenny prefers knock-offs over real designer bags makes me like her even more, because it proves she's not pretentious, and she's pretty smart too.

    You may want to get a close look at the lining of a woman's purse before you decide to become friends. In a new book titled The Honest Truth About Dishonesty: How We Lie to Everyone -- Including Ourselves, professor and author Dan Ariely makes an interesting connection between carrying fake designer bags and lying. His research found that women and men who were OK making people believe that their Gocci bag was really a Gucci bag were more inclined to lie, cheat, and steal in all other facets of life. The crux being that if you can cheat the real designers out of money, and fool yourself and others into thinking you can afford something you can't, then your moral compass is likely compromised in more areas than just that one.

    Most of us would get down on our knees and thank the gods above if we could afford to spend $100,000 on a handbag, so it was no surprise that fashionistas, as well as regular folk, were aflame with irritation when Clint Eastwood's daughter, Francesca, burned a pricey fire engine red crocodile Birkin bag at a photoshoot for her new reality show, Mrs. Eastwood & Co. In fact, people got so burned up about it, that Francesca has received death threats on Twitter.

    Some of the more lively Tweets:

    -- "Some of us actually have to work and live check 2 check, spoiled rotten bitch to burn 100k bag."-- "You’re a stupid whore. How f***ing dumb can you be."-- "You should kill urself, ungrateful bitch – wasted money when families can't eat."

    So you're having, or you have, a baby. That's awesome! Way to go. Now what? Well, besides all the life-changing miracles blah blah blah, you gotta decide on the diaper bag. Forget about doctor's appointments and breastfeeding and all that serious stuff for a second, and let's focus instead on some fun bags. I've pulled 10 that I think look great for the price and could double as a large handbag for work or play once you're done hauling bottles, Goldfish, and Pampers. Take a look!
