"How long is it going to take for greeting card technology to enter the luxury market so bags can sing "Prada! Prada!" when opened?" - reader FWD, yesterday, on people who dress like "Walking Advertisements."

This made me think of this Little Mermaid oyster shell my friend had in 7th grade. Every time she'd open it, the shell would sing "AHHHHahhhAHHHaaahAAAhhhahhh" like Ariel did in the movie. It was epic. She got it taken away though...
Could you see little 7th graders walking around with Coach bags that sang when you'd open them?! They'd open them up in science class and the teacher would take them away. But no one would complain b/c coach bags are ugly...

i love chanel too, but those gigantic interlocking Cs are just the same as a card screaming "prada!"
the point is that people with discerning taste dont wear chanel and louis vuitton for the big Cs and LVs - they wear it for the style and quality.
advertising who or what you're wearing is just tacky, whether it's chanel Cs or a t-shirt that says "bebe" in it (ugghhh!)

lmao that's brilliant. i think chanel/prada/lv should make a bag like that and see how many people actually buy it.
