Now, I’m not a fashionista by any means. But I like keeping up to date with fashion, styles etc and waiting about 2 weeks before buying the cheaper, ripoff version from Primark or New Look. One thing I won’t be buying though is this TopShop bag. It’s horrendous, and doesn’t seem to serve any purpose other than a bag for shopping or to carry your grandparent’s bowls in. It reminds me so much of the jelly shoes I had when I was 8. I thought I was so cool. I had silver sparkley ones, pink ones and flowery ones. The more I think back the more I remember they were damn uncomfortable and left you with the funniest tan lines on your feet.
What do you think? Is this your sort of bag? What would you use it for? Surely everything would fall out of it, or would be rather easy to pinch. Oh, and if you’re interested, it costs a fiver.

That instantly reminded me of jelly shoes too. I would never use something like that. It’s fun to look at, maybe, but I hope that trend doesn’t catch on. I mean, everyone can see what you have in it. I don’t like that.

I feel like my lip gloss is going to fall off that bag. It looks like the grocery bags some people here in the Philippines use. I would definitely not use it.
I believe I used to have a pair of those jelly shoes.

if it came in a big version and in bright green I’d use it for my washing but as a bag, no! I dont think everyone wants to see what crap I keep in my bag!
but jelly shoes are SO cool! I still fit mine!! hehe

Jelly shoes made your feet smell bad… and they sweated and then you’d get bruises… they sucked so much butt.
And that bag is totally ugly. I would never carry it for that reason. Also, it’s not very practical. I mean… it’s not very private, is it? My girlinesses would not like that.

Aah, jelly shoes… RIP! I think every little girl must have had a pair of those!
I agree with you, the bag is disgusting I dont see why you would carry anything in it because one its got holes all over it and two its see-through, wtf? x

Jelly shoes kicked serious booty back in the day.
I’d use that to go to the supermarket for vegetables and fruit. Since it’s got holes in it it’d be easy to throw in the sink and wash them off in afterward.
But then again I act like an 70 year old grandma sometimes, so, meh. XD
