The oversize bag-mania may be slowly going out of fashion, but the slightly smaller yet still roomy "carry alls" are still high up there on the list of fashion must-haves for Hollywood celebrities. One such brand of bags, which has made its way from Paris to the other side of the Ocean, is Gerard Darel's Spring/Summer 2008 bag collection. Celebrity fans of the collection are the likes of Angelina Jolie, Halle Berry and Jessica Alba - just to name a few.

It includes eight lines of classic and fashionably colored bags, an assortment of stylish and practical pieces carefully designed from the finest materials to cater to every need on a modern woman's busy agenda. Coupled with the effortless French chic of Charlotte Gainsbourg, the model who fronts the

ad campaign of the collection, Gerard Darel has scored an international hit.

The Gerard Darel bags are timeless city classics and fit perfectly with most modern women's daily endeavors, whether it's work lunches, shopping, a weekend away or even an evening out with friends. The eight bag lines bear the name of a city or a special place, as an added invitation to travel and explore their full potential. The Saint-Germain bag, for example, is perhaps the most classical in all the collection, available in muted nuances of gray, taupe and navy in addition to the timelessly elegant black and white.

Other classic designs include the slightly more glamorous "24 hour" Barcelona glazed leather bag in black and the "24 hour" Sofia bag, made from leather with a mother-of-pearl finish. Python skin is also present in the collection via two designs - the Utah and Monaco lines, the latter sporting an ultra-trendy glittery finish to keep you in a party mood.

Finally, if color and practicality are what you're after, why not try the elegantly creative "24 hour" folding Ibiza bag? Made from lightweight cotton and leather (and available in neutral beige, red and navy blue among others), this bag expands from a handy pouch to a large-capacity handbag in no time.
