The Glow Purse

Did you know that the average European woman spends around 14.3 hours in a year to look for objects in her bag?

I think I'm one of them! Out of habit and necessity I tend to carry a lot in my Big Bag and am often lost when it comes to finding things on time.. like looking for change, or particular item of makeup or a particular phone number I just happened to scribble and put in the sac.

Imagine our bags were glowing once we opened them and we can find everything right away!

Imagine no more, as it is now a reality. Merry Kawamura Ganjavian is a Spanish Design Collective of three young designers based in Madrid, Spain, who have developed lots of exciting projects during their many travels around the world.

One of their most interesting is the “Glow Purse,” which is an illuminated handbag. The technology is based on micro-LEDs (LUMENs) that are integrated in the inner lining of the bag and help it glow when opened. This lightning mechanism can be switched on manually and is easily rechargeable in your house with a base or operated with a small exchangeable battery.

10 ways to sex up your look

What's sexy without being a li'l sleazy or adding unexpected touches and a few glamorous essentials? Plus, it's about choosing more essential ways to express your sensuality then merely donning a micro-mini. Here's how to add sizzle without sacrificing your modesty.

1. WEAR EXPECTED IN AN UNEXPECTED WAY
Subtle alterations pack a chicest punch. For e.g., take a basic man's white shirt [slightly oversized ], unbutton it, wrap it so that one side overlaps over and tuck it in.

2. GO RED
Pale lips maybe trendy, but nothing does the job like red. Use lipliner for the perfect appearance. Choose a creamy matte in red that best suits your skin tone [blue-reds for darker skin tones; orangey hues for olive or true reds].

3. ADD A HAT
It takes guts to wear one.And takes the panache to carry it off.Combine the two qualities and you get some major sex appeal. Stay with classic shapes like fedora and beret. They are easier to pull off.

4.ACCESSORIZE WITH SHOULDER-DUSTER
Skip every other piece of jewelery, just add the shoulder duster earrings. Pull your hair back and make sure your makeup is soft. This looks great with bare shoulders.. And its most definitely an after-dark look!

5. MAKE IT METALLIC
black is super sexy but gold, silver and copper are especially luminous when you're going for va-va-voom. Look for simple shapes and tones that flatter your skin tone. Go minimal to let the dress shine.

6. ADOPT AN EXOTIC LOOK
Harem pants, sarongs and embroidered items are all ethnic looks with tonnes of feminine charm. Mandarian collar dresses from China are flattering, very chic and always very intriguing.

7. WEAR SHADES
Perhaps the single sexiest item you can own are a great pair of sunglasses. They add dollops of mystery, look cute even on top of your head and serve the practical purpose of protecting your eyes.

8. MAKE A GRAND EXIT
Sexy is all about surprises, so a deceptively simple dress from the front can be a show-stopper in the back. Open backs, lace-up backs and dress trains add drama.

9. STAY SOFT
Forget everything you've ever heard about leathers or sparkly sequins being heat-inducing. Soft, touchable fabrics like cashmere, satin, suede are the real scene-stealers and have the added bonus of feeling great against your skin.

10. PLAY PEEK-A-BOO
No need to bare your breasts, even with a lace. Nude linings, camisoles and slips all keep you covered while the lace itself is really suggestive..
