For mom-of-three Monica Botkier, accessory designing was, well, an accident.
“I was a fashion photographer and shooting tons of amazing accessories so I became obsessed,” she tells PEOPLE Moms & Babies.
After purchasing a few designer handbags, but feeling unhappy about the functionality and the price, Botkier began designing her own purses. “I made my personal bag (the Trigger) in April 2003 and by August 2003 we were in Barneys,” she says.
Now, the native New Yorker’s bags and shoes are worn by some of Hollywood’s most famous mamas, including Angelina Jolie (below left carrying the Sasha medium duffle), Halle Berry (below right wearing the Marnie boots), Jessica Alba, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Heidi Klum.

Who says baby gear has to take over the house?
Infantino’s Twist and Fold Activity Gym ($39.99) is a terrific activity gym for your baby, that can be stashed away when not in use.
When you want to put it away, simply twist the top and fold it down. It can can be opened quickly with a simple pop-up motion.
There are four soft attachable toys, plus a mirror for baby to gaze into. The bolster pillow is ideal for tummy time, and we love sunny yellow color with the cute horse, monkey, elephant and lion on it.
Our only warning: It’s guaranteed to provide hours of fun!
