Chanel and beef jerky were two seemingly unrelated ideas, until now. Just in case you are so poor after purchasing that new Chanel replica handbag, Nancy Wu has designed one that is edible! Wu is a design student with a sense of humour (or a big appetite). This handbag is made out of pure beef jerky.
The first clutch is inspired by Chanel, and the second is embossed with the iconic Louis Vuitton monogram that has become a staple in any self respecting fashionista’s closet.
Compared with the real thing in photo #4 (via allwomenstalk.com), who can tell the difference? If you think this trend is weird, please remind yourself where leather comes from.
