The Dolls Kill 'Hip to Be Square Cartoon Bag' Offers a Misleading Design

The 'Hip to Be Square Cartoon Bag' is an interesting fashion innovation that portrays a rather falsifying design.

This bag is a Dolls Kill exclusive and though it is ships worldwide, it is one item that cannot be found on any of the site's stockist retailers. Constructed out of man made materials, the 'Hip to Be Square Cartoon Bag' features a cool 2D graphic design on the front but opens up to be a very 3D bag. Though offering the look of an unrealistic and flat accessory, the bag's insides exhibit enough space to carry most day-to-day items. The interior is also lined to prevent any spillage.

The bag features a front handle and shoulder strap for comfortable carrying.
