bag lady?

whats with this huge 80s patchwork bowling bag that lydia hearst has been carrying around to all the shows & parties?

i get it, its puma for heatherette or the reverse, and its the Lydia bag but its not cute, its massive and not quite a cocktail bag dear. Anyone know the story behind it?

Reports say Theodora Richards and Elizabeth Jagger are designing Puma bags too, lets hope these rock royalty have better taste than a certain socialite turned model.
