The Olsen twins designed a $55,000 backpack

The sister duo has teamed up with artist Damien Hirst on this fashion/art project, according to Refinery29. You can check out a video of all 12 bags (and no, at that price they are even not diamond encrusted).

Six of the most annoying dress codes, decoded!
I’m all for people getting creative with their party décor, but not so much with their dress code description. (Unless, you know, it’s a theme party.) Island fancy, mountain chic, dress for the summer solstice (?!): these are all real dress decrees I’ve been given and all ones that immediately sent me into Gchat-polling madness to figure out what the hell the host was trying to tell me.
