Sun Trap handbag

We've all fumbled around our handbags in search of keys or whatever it is that always ends up at the bottom of the bag. Rosanna Kilfedder has created a bag that lights up with an electroluminescent blue light when you open it. There's no need to charge the battery, which is a good thing, because it's powered by a flexible solar panel on the outside of the bag. It's also smart enough to shut itself off after 15 seconds to conserve the battery. That just means that you'll have to find those keys in 15 seconds or less!

Actually, I don't know if she invented it or not because about 2 years ago I saw a line of handbags with these same kind of lights in them at Target. When I went about a year ago, they still had them. Could be less expensive alternative for anyone who has a Target nearby

I don't know if opening a purse should resemble a scene from Pulp Fiction...

...but do they with bright gold lights on the inside?
