Hasta La Ideas

The combination of the currently warm weather and depressing economy brings back fond childhood memories of my carefree summers spent at Girl Scout Camp. We used to do all sorts of fun things like hiking, face painting, arts & crafts — and as a fashion maven in training, one of my favorite activities was a leather-working workshop where we would get to make our own leather bangles, barrettes, and accessories by etching designs into the material or gluing on tacky feathers or jewels. Sometimes I wish I had kept some of my kiddie creations, just to see if any could have been salvageable for any fleeting trend of the moment, which is why I was so excited to discover the similarly-adorned Givenchy Camera Case at Barneys! Why go through the trouble of a do-it-yourself craft project to create your own camera accessory when you can waste all of your money simply buying a ridiculously-priced designer leather case that looks exactly like an 8-year-old girl decorated it for you? Furthermore, the case measures about 5×8 inches, so it’s actually probably way too big for your camera, but at least all that unnecessary surface area allows more room for gaudy jewels! Overall, it totally makes sense to have your carrying case cost over ten times more than the object it’s meant to protect.

Price: $3,620 — not even kidding!
