Kidrobot Launches New Bag Line

If you’re anything like us, your collection of leather, studded, fringed, quilted, and patent bags has taken over every door knob, hook, and unused treadmill in your apartment. And what’s worse? Most of them are black. So it’s kind of hard to justify buying a new purse. But oh! We can always rationalize shopping. Kidrobot’s just launched a new line of bags, and the inner kid/toy freak in us is going a little nuts. The bags, which range from $38 to $148 for canvas and $78 to $328 for reflective nylon, hit Kidrobot stores, Nordstrom, and Bloomingdale’s on June 25. And, as we used to say when we were 5, we need. They’re bright, they’re colorful, and they’re like a toy explosion in bag form. As a special bonus, each bag comes with three collectible figurines: a Munny zipper pull, a Yummy Donut key chain, and a mini Smorkin’ Labbit. And sure the Weekend Duffler is like a collage overkill, but you’ll never lose track of it on a plane, will you? —Amina Akhtar
