With designers half-inched from Marc Jacobs, it's no surprise that Gap come up with some great stuff. Their bestselling multi-pocket hobo bag gets a make-over each season (from sheepskin trims to hessian piping), and is joined each season by more super-successful sell-out styles loved by celebs and mere mortals alike. Reese Witherspoon was recently spotted toting a Gap bag and Joss Stone has just been signed to take over SJP as spokesmodel, so if you're a Gap fan, you're in good company.
