Do your arms ever get tired of performing the menial tasks of your everyday life? Do they ever wish that instead of carrying your bag they could be imitating a WW II airplane or flapping around like chicken wings? Or perhaps they would prefer to give a great big hug to the lonely child that lives deep down inside you? Well, whether your goal is surface level silliness or deep rooted healing, Threadbared.com is here to help. With these new necklace purses, your arms are freed up to do anything their elbows desire.
Oh…and according to the caption, these neck purses are better than ice cream!!
How cute…I vaguely remember my high school french…very vaguely…and recall “mode” being “fashion”–so they’re trying to say these things were in fashion? I like the ice cream idea better…even if it did drip out the holes in my lovely necklace purse.
I ate a purse like that just the other day. It is NOT better than ice cream. Believe me.
oh my god! i bought those exact sunglasses at a thrift store a month ago. i finally tried them on this weekend and they are the strangest things.
It seems like when you walk, the purse would bounce between boobs, occasionally lasso-ing one…which is never a good look.
Honestly, if the purse is THAT little, why not just make a full-sized strap and wear it over your shoulder like a sane person?
all i want to know is this: what the heck would you do about matching earrings???
Exodus 28:15: And thou shalt make the breastplate of judgment with cunning work; after the work of the ephod thou shalt make it; of gold, of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of light weight cotton yarn, shalt thou make it; and the Lord Thy God shall be pleased if thou shalt add little wooden beads unto the crocheted breastplate of judgement.
I have this issue! I just about fell over when I read that these purses were the height of fashion, or some such thing. Oh sure, it’s all fashionable until someone gets it caught on a passing tree branch, then *gurgh, gak, garrrr*.

These purses must be the predecessors of those little bag thingies you wear around your waist (men and women) – fanny packs? My husband calls them “pig bladders.” Regardless, they just scream “DORK”
No, silly. That’s French for feedbag!
wait! so if they’re insulting al la mode, they’re insulting pie as well!! the bastards!
This is the perfect purse to wear when you are going to an affair where you will join in on the Chicken Dance! The glasses will go perfectly with the type of people who dance that Chicken Dance. Did anybody notice that the eyeglass case is just not large enough for those glasses? Ah, it is tres chic to crochet ever since Martha made that lovely poncho for her release. I question whether it is wise to let prisoners crochet or carry these necklace purses that could be used to conceal a weapon!
God, what a pain in the butt these would be. Every time you wanted to get something out of the purse you’d either have to take it off or put your arms in an odd position that made you look like some sort of bird.
MY EYES!…MY EYES! I sure hope that these otherwise, “normal” looking women got paid well to stand around and, look so…stupid. The one in the red..sheesh! Did she NOT have any say about the end product?
lol Your readers are very funny. Thanks everyone.
*sings*
Your fug is better than ice cream, better than anything else that I wear…
Um, didn’t anyone notice the ominous words in caption #43:”For your identification papers…” What is this, the beginning of a totalitarian takeover? I can hear the gleeful plotting now: “First, we lull them into obeisance with irresistable fashion crafts, then we trick them into carrying their identification papers everywhere! With these little bags, arrests will be a cinch! just grab the bag and you’ve got the citizen by the neck with their ID in your hands! Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha!”
I think it is just the lighting, but it looks as if woman in red has a huge mole or growth of some kind on the right side of her face – reminds me of Uncle Buck and the principal of the elementary school when he gives her a quarter to go downtown and havea rat gnaw it off of her face…
I noticed the mole thing also. Looks like it could be sprouting hair…ewww.
… and if properly placed, can frame your breast nicely.
Oh, Boo Hoo, I love my little phone bag/pursey thing I wear around my neck. I just know I’m not that dorky. I’m not, right? Here, see my contest: http://woolywonder.com/contest/idea.htm
However Annie, ((1)) I tried wearing ice cream around my neck. My poor sweater will never be the same!
I have never EVER seen anyone wearing a crocheted purse around her neck, so how fashionable can these things ever have been? They look just like regular purses that have been draped over their necks instead of over their shoulders. With all the stuff I carry around, I’d be walking hunchbacked! Oh, and obviously these are for small- to medium-chested women. Anyone with substantial boobage would find these purses most embarrassing.
