Beyonce has definitely been traveling this past week and so has her November XVIII Ruffle Bag. She was spotted carrying the red leather bag at the “Hope For Haiti Now” telethon January 22 in London, January 24 at the airport in Nice, France and leaving Nobu Restaurant in New York January 25. (I think she’s carrying a red bag in all 3 pics & that the camera just captured different tones.)It’s designed by Patricia Lukoszek and named November XVIII for her birthday. You can find this handbag at Barneys but only in the store.

Celebrities came out in full force for the “Hope For Haiti Now: A Global Benefit For Earthquake Relief” telethon. Some for performances but most of them manned the phones. As of Friday night, the telethon raised 58 million dollars for Haiti.

Rihanna and Bono teamed up with Jay Z on a new song entitled “Stranded (Haiti Mon Amour)”. The singer wore a silver metallic mini dress from the Jean Paul Gaultier Fall 2009 Couture collection with Christian Louboutin pumps.

Vanessa Hudgens wore a Prps Brown Leather Jacket which is available at SINGER22.com for $1, 584. She also wore a pair of J Brand Jeans available at  SINGER22.com also for $159. Let’s not forget the cute Zodiac Panda Boots she wore which can buy at Endless.com for $99.

Beyonce, who sang “Halo” at the benefit, was dressed in all black. The singer wore a Moschino Fall 2009 jacket that was embellished with safety pins.

Taylor Swift sang “Breathless” while wearing a Paule Ke pale pink dress from the Spring 2009 collection. The singer also wore nude colored Christian Louboutin Alta Spritney peep-toes.

Everyone wants to know why Beyonce has on gloves on this pic and where can you find them…lol. Beyonce spent an evening with her hubby, Jay Z at L’Avenue Restaurant in Paris and was photographed wearing a pair of 3.1 Phillip Lim studded gloves which I’m pretty sure are almost sold out over at net-a-porter.com.

Beyonce covers Allure next month wearing a Roberto Cavalli beaded silk tulle dress. Those sequined booties are something serious! They’re called “Dita” and made by Cesari Paciotti. Pick up the February Issue for more…..

Leighton Meester went totally futuristic in her Christian Cota sequined mini from the Fall 2009 collection. The actress added a pair of fly Giuseppe Zanotti peep toes with a Bottega clutch.

Lauren Conrad looked cute as always in a printed Diane von Furstenberg wrap dress. Simple is her go-to style but it works for her. She added Jimmy Choo peep-toes to complete her look.

Whitney Port wore a modified Christopher Kane Fall 2009 dress. i like the way it looks but she looks so uncomfortable. I would have worn some killer sandals instead of booties.

The beautiful Taylor Swift, who loves sequins and rhinestones, stood out on the red carpet in a Kaufman Franco resort 2009 gown. *side note* Kanye West snatched the mic from Taylor as she was making her acceptance speech for Video of the Year. He actually had the nerve to tell the audience Beyonce had the best video of the decade. Maybe she did but that wasn’t the place to say that. He totally ruined that moment for her. He has since apologized and Beyonce allowed Taylor to give her thank yous in her place for another award.

My eyes were immediately drawn to Solange when I first saw this picture. Solange is totally owning that short hair! I’ll admit, i was a little thrown off when she first cut it but in true Solange style she makes a statement. The lady is striking!

Beyonce and her lil sis are in Japan promoting the Samantha Thavasa Disney collection.

I received a bunch of emails about Solange’s shoes. You can always count on her to bring her A-Game when it comes to shoes. This time the singer wore Moschino Cheap and Chic Two-faced heels which are available at zappos.com for $819.

Beyonce, who’s been touring like crazy, found a little time for herself at Hyde Longe in LA. Accompanied by little Solange and Bodyguard, the “Single Ladies singer looked fabulous! She wore a Matthew Williamson Fantasy Leopard Print Silk dress ($2,112.18) with Christian Louboutin Very Galaxy Platform Pumps ($1,295). These fuschia pumps are pretty much sold out everywhere but you can still find them in gold.
