The Fashion-tech bag that charges your iPhone!
updated the 7 October 2015 à 00:03As phones are now integral in our day to day activities, the emPOWERED bag could possibly save your life someday..
You are on your way to a meeting, you are using google maps, sending a very important email and waiting for a capital phone call. What happiness to have an iPhone! Yes, but suddenly, a pop-up appears on your screen telling you that you have 10% battery left… and you have left your charger at home…
Sounds like a familiar drama?
Calm down and breathe deeply! Loni Edwards, chief executive of Stitch Collective , was inspired by this big ‘dying iPhone’ problem which always happens at exactly the wrong time.
As she said : “My phone was always running out of battery and I hated using heavy and bulky phone charging cases. I wanted something that seamlessly fit into my life.”
So Loni Edwards conceived the emPOWERED bag (USD149) which is not only functional and fashionable – but also thanks to a rechargeable battery discreetly built in a side pocket of the handbag, it can charge your iPhone twice from 0 to 100%. The bag is made from high-quality leather and with its removable and adjustable chain strap, it can be worn on the shoulder for hands-free use during the daytime and as a clutch for a night out.
This functional smart bag which can easily recharge itself with a USB cable or a wall adapter, demonstrates once again how technology can serve Fashion well!
