Style Radar: It Bag - Balenciaga

The Balenciaga Motorcycle bag launched in Balenciaga’s Spring 2001 collection, and immediately achieved It Bag status.  The rectangular bag, which has many zippers, pockets, tassels, and buckles, was perfect for boho chic celebs like Nicole Richie and Nicky Hilton.  The company has since expanded its handbag collection, adding styles like the City Bag, Weekender, and Lune Bag, all of which are coveted by fashionists around the globe. 

Crafted out of soft leather, the cleverly designed bags are conventional enough for daytime use, and chic enough for a night on the town.  Celebs, including Kim Kardashian, continue toting these haute handbags in a variety of shapes and sizes.
