Swarovski Embark Tote Bag
So someone over at Swarovski headquarters had a rather odd idea when it came to a new handbag design. They really took the concept of compact and portable to a whole new level. Imagine a wallet-size cloth article, containing a zip pouch and an exterior transparent pocket to insert pictures in. Surrounding your picture of choice would be a collage of sparkly Swarovski crystals… how cute, right? Personally, I won’t be adding this to my wish list, but maybe my senior neighbor who holds a passion for canvas totes with pictures would be delighted by this piece. So it’s called the Embark Tote Bag for a reason since you can unzip this compact piece and out unfolds a parachute cloth tote, how neat is that! Well, this concept isn’t so new to the world of portability, hence the invention of the compact umbrella and the pocketsize raincoat, but in the world of handbags this is definitely … different. Tan hued body with fluorescent pink trim is the only version available at the moment and finding this piece on the sales rack indicates that this wasn’t as cool as it was intended to be. If you seek something different, you can find the Embark tote marked down to $154 over at Swarovski

This is so beautiful.
Is this a handbag? Why would it fold like this?
Ok, I have stared at this for several minutes, and I just can’t seem to find a liking for this. It is confusing to me as to what the designer was going for. It really looks like a limp, plastic Wal-Mart bag to me. I’m just not feeling this one.
I love this!
This would be perfect for travel < 3
Cute idea, not sure if I would spend that much on this though.
I think it looks much cuter as a wallet.
This bag reminds me of the hermes silky pop… much cheaper though.
Wow I seriously can not believe this bag is only $154! Gorgeous.
Are those real Swarovski crystals???
LOVE THIS!
I like this one alot.
I think this is so adorable and very convenient. I would buy this.
This is really neat.
Well it’s a-lot cheaper and more glamorous than Hermes’ silk pop..
