Henry cuir Depeche Satchel : Who Wouldn’t Want To Carry Around A Carpet?

henrycuirdepeche_tote.jpg

I have an idea. Tonight when I get home, I will pour myself some pinot, grab a handful of Cheez-It’s, turn on ABC family, then rip up the awesome tan carpet in my bedroom and sew it together to make a purse. When it is completed, I will sell it online for a thousand dollars. Sound good? Perfect. Mama needs a new pair of shoes.

But seriously, this bag is confusing. They call the material used “fuzzy” but what the hell is it actually? I want to know what I’m dropping $1,195 dollars on. In taking a closer look, it seriously looks like a carpet.

Now, call me crazy, but I think that is a steep price tag for flooring. I understand it has a leather shoulder strap and African bead detail, but still, unless this bag doubles as a floor mat, I can’t justify the price.

On the positive side however, this little baby does open up a whole new door in the bag world. Bags made out of household items! The George Forman grill/clutch- make a sandwich and go dancing at the same time! Or the towel tote- dries you off and holds your beach snacks at the same time!

Wait- that last one is an excellent idea- no one steal that please- or if you do- name it the Emma Supreme. Thanks.

Barneys for (again- yikes) $1,195.00.

  1. Woah! I am in the wrong field of some buyer is getting the store to purchase carpet bags (and not the good ones). And that price is amazing. I wonder if your arm would get carpet burns from rubbing against as you carry it on your shoulder?

  2. Ha! The “African bead detail” did it in for me. I thought it was a piece of sweater fuzz that got caught on the carpet – I mean bag. This bag is ridiculous. But I LOVE the idea of a towel tote. Get thee to a prototype!

  3. Too funny for words. Enjoying all your posts!

    And your right, this bag is hideous. Just disgusting. This is one time where I would rather cheap out and buy the ugly purse rather than this hideous purse. More decisions like this and soon I will have $60K in savings!
