Mizrahi's Bag Hats

Okay, not sure where to start on this one... I know designers make a living by pushing the limits of fashion and being the first to find and recognize new trends, but handbags on our heads? Isaac Mizrahi seems to really like the idea, as he has chosen to put more than a few of them on his models and in his fall/winter 2009 collection. The hats/bags themselves are pretty simple in basic leather, featuring nothing much more than rich fall colors and two stiff, skyreaching handles plus, of course, the large hole in the bottom where your head goes.
Add some interior zip pockets, though, and you could make for a super-convenient way to carry essentials like lip gloss and some spare cash around at a party.

no way
no way
no way in HELL am I being seen with a woman wearing this on her head and I don't care how beautiful she is.
"Hi this is my wife.... please ignor the fact that she has a purse on her head.. she really is witty and charming".
I'm sure the "you need to notice me" freak market will embrace this.. but seriously.
I've always said if a women can't pull it off in a tee shirt and jeans, it doesn't matter what she's decorating the tree with.
Beauty always trumps fashion.
