I'm all for multi-tasking...and 'craft' projects that take almost no time or effort to accomplish...but British Vogue's suggestion to "get ahead" of next spring's satchel trend by tying a scarf onto your handbag to create a strap seems a little too lazy (even for me).

Impractical too...you're either going to ruin a perfectly good scarf by attaching it to too heavy a bag...or create an impractical lightweight, too light to actually carry anything (and therefore failing to fulfill the remit of being a satchel).

Egad, I'm turning into a craft curmudgeon...or maybe I'm just jealous of the Hermès bag used in this experiment...
