People Are Getting Really Creative With The Ikea Bag

When will this crazy fashion trend end?

A couple of weeks ago, news broke about designer label Balenciaga’s new big bright blue tote bag that looks strikingly similar to another big bright blue tote bag we’re more familiar with.

And they’re charging people £1,670 (RM7,900) for something we can get for RM2 at Ikea.

Ikea had even responded with a spoof of the highly priced fashion item with their own prized product.

The Ikea Frakta bag that everyone loves is usually tucked away somewhere in the house after a productive furniture shopping spree.

However, this Balenciaga episode has led the beautiful people of the internet to DIY their own fashion items with the Frakta.

And the results were, dare we say, very creative.

Did someone say meatballs ??
