To that end, designers Humberto Leon and Carol Lim road-tested the prototype —literally— with a two-week car trip that resulted in tweaks to make the final version more durable and spill-proof. Jessica Alba, Rashida Jones and Susie Bubble fancy the $1190 Kenzo Kalifornia bag.

McCartney developed a new material, Eco Faux Leather, which uses vegetable oil instead of petroleum oil for the new design. And, as with all Stella McCartney designs, the bag is free of animal products (i.e. leather) so it’s a win-win for vegans and PETA supporters, too. Anne Hathaway, Gwyneth Paltrow, Salma Hayek and Gwen Stefani swear by the Stella McCartney Beckett cluth that costs only $770.
