There are always new fashion trends, even in accessories. I am not sure this is one I really want to follow, but some might find it fun and maybe a bit freeing.

The newest fashion accessory is handbags made out of bras. You can buy them or make your own and the internet is full of sites with simple instructions.

The fun part is that all you need is an old bra and some embellishments: feathers, beads, fringe - even tassels is you’re daring.

In the 60s women burned their bras to show their new freedom from conventional standards. Bras themselves have become a fashion accessory and now they make a fun and kicky handbag.

Here’s a site where you can buy them ready-made:

And here are some sites with instructions for crafting your own:
