Move over large totes and hobos—the small satchel is here and making quite the impression both on and off the runways! Characterized by a boxy shape, flap silhouette, and ultra-long strap, these petite purses offer the ideal amalgam of ladylike grace and modern edge, which is why trendsetters like Diane Kruger and Rachel Bilson adore them. We love them too because they manage to be both functional and sophisticated; whether they’re worn across the body or on one shoulder, these hands-free carriers are perfect for all your on-the-go moments.
Even better: small satchels always add a little panache to more casual, daytime ensembles, making them a must-buy for summer!
While all of these runway examples are wonderful, do keep in mind that there are many other options out there, as our celebrity trendsetters so deftly demonstrate. Some opt for an ultra-classic shape, like the always-fashionable Diane Kruger who wore a classic Hermes Constance Elan Bag ($7,200, 800.441.4488)—one of Jackie O.’s favorites—on a weekend shopping trip with boyfriend Joshua Jackson. Paired with a chic blazer, wing-tip shoes, and black leather satchel, the result is just the sort of delightfully polished daytime look we’ve come to expect from Kruger.

There are a lot of choice quotes from the interview with Diane Kruger in this month’s issue of Allure, but our favorite by far is the story about the time Kruger almost ran over Sharon Stone with a Segway. Kruger explains that the incident occurred at a charity auction last year. She says:
“I was at this auction last year for amfAR — a foundation for AIDS research — and Sharon Stone was hosting. Josh [Jackson] and I were supposed to auction off a Segway. And for some reason I decided to get on it, wearing really high heels. I was totally off balance, and … I nearly killed Sharon Stone. I’m not kidding. I ran over the train of her dress, and she stumbled and almost fell off the stage. Josh had to pull me off. I could see the headlines: Diane Kruger kills Sharon Stone.”

With such a devotion to fashion and taking sartorial risks, it’s no wonder the 33-year-old actress is a muse to fellow German Karl Lagerfeld.
“I met Diane on a shoot I was doing for Elle in the ’90s, with ten other girls,” the Kaiser tells the magazine of his friend. “Diane was stunning, and the most interesting girl. The others I forgot instantly. One, she can make any clothing, no matter how wild, look right. That alchemy is very hard to explain. And two, she speaks perfect English, French, and German. There is no actress in the world who can handle so perfectly three languages with no accent.”
The two are such close friends that the designer was chosen to present Kruger with an award at The Golden Camera Awards in Berlin.
“Karl never goes out to give awards, but he came out for me,” Kruger says. “He gets very flustered speaking on TV, and he just goes on and on. And in the course of presenting me with this, he said, on live television, that we were neighbors — and then gave our addresses. I’m backstage, like, Oh, my God! Thanks, Karl! For making it easy for the crazy people!”

Model turned award-winning-actress Diane Kruger is Allure’s gorgeous July cover girl, which makes sense given her past. The German-born stunner, who graced the pages of Allure back in her days as a model and was once the face of Giorgio Armani’s Acqua di Gio perfume, dons a thick navy cashmere Michael Kors sweater for the magazine, and, naturally, a flawless face painted by Gucci Westman. Inside the issue, Kruger, who also wears an off-the-shoulder taffeta and tulle gown by Jason Wu, gives her beauty and fashion tips.
“I must be very careful with my skin from modeling and working under hot lights,” says Kruger, who will be the new face of Calvin Klein’s Beauty fragrance come this October. “I break out easily. I never go to sleep without taking off my makeup.”
As for style versus comfort, Kruger says the former wins out every time.
“Two years ago, I wore an haute couture gown to the Venice Film Festival, and it had a full-on corset — it was gorgeous, but it was a runway piece and it hadn’t been made for life,” she remembers. “The bodice didn’t have one of those openings at the bottom. I nearly fainted because it was so tight, and I had to go to the bathroom so badly, but it would have taken an hour to get out of that dress. But! It was soooo gorgeous!”

The gorgeous Diane was featured in this year’s People Magazine’s “World’s 100 Most Beautiful List.” Thank you to Kim at www.zsaldana.com for the scan!
Stars Without Makeup: “I inherited dark circles from my Polish grandmother. A lot of sleep, that is always the best cure. If that is not an option, with is often the case with me, then I turn to cover-up. Also, I have a really large forehead, which troubled me for a while, but I have come to love it. I feel like it has come to define my personality.”

Diane Kruger is a vision in bright, bold Spring colors on the latest cover of Marie Claire UK. The Inglourious Basterds star looked stunning in her Chanel gown at the Oscars but stripped down to just the basics inside the issue. She talks openly about her family, her relationship with Dawson’s Creek alum Joshua Jackson, and future plans for marriage. Take a look at what Diane had to say about “Dawson’s Creek:”
“I have never seen one episode of Dawson’s Creek. I must be the only person on this planet. I went to a Women in Hollywood event two months ago and Katie Holmes was being honored. And all of her clips of Dawson’s Creek were with Josh and it was so weird. He was all pimply and had a bloated face [laughs]. I had to call him and he was like, ‘Don’t watch it! Don’t watch it!’ Very funny.”
