UNRULY GIRL BELLA . PRODUCT
SCOPE
Create a complete visually compelling and charming presentation of a modern, tech-filled purse while keeping it fun and playful for presentation on multiple crowdfunding platforms.
PROCESS
We focused on basic colors and combined the curvy, blocky text with hand drawn borders and the Bella handwritten script. We decided to present the clean lines of this technical+fashion product by presenting it within urban environments and situations.
RESULT
The final presentation was simply clean, clear and fun to look at!

“The Bella is the world’s first and only freestanding designer handbag with an integrated tablet window, embedded rechargeable battery supply, interior light and glowing external spine, so you have the power to go go go!”

When we began development of the UNRULY GIRL handbag, the goal was to create a fashionable, attractive purse with great technology and cool features tucked neatly inside, without sacrificing visual appeal. The result is the beautiful Bella - 100% girly on the outside and super nerdy on the inside. :)

Inside the Bella, we’ve provided a “wired” cozy pocket that lets you connect and charge your phone directly from the internal battery encased within the base of the Bella. There are multiple internal USB ports to charge your tablet and other mobile devices too!
A padded cozy pocket keeps your phone safe while charging inside the Bella.
Connect any USB phone or tablet cable to the internal USB connectors and charge up!
This means you get hours of portable charging power for all of your devices, regardless of where you find yourself. You can even charge your tablet while you’re using it!
At night, just plug-in and charge the battery supply embedded inside the Bella for all-day power to go. Any USB compatible device can then be plugged into Bella’s internal or external USB ports to recharge. Now this gives a whole new meaning to take charge!
The Bella is handcrafted in the USA from high grade leather and a lightweight aluminum spine with a waterproof rubber sole to keep moisture out.
Made in the good old USA!
Waterproof, rubber shoe-style sole. A bag with a sole! :)
The Bella has an adjustable strap for just the right position!
The Bella is available in these four fun colors: “Brainy Black”, “Bossy Blue”, “Grouch Geen” and “Perfect Pink”. Choose the color that best matches you. Or enjoy them all on different occasions, because one purse is never enough!
Own a true collectors item. Creative pioneer, Sabrina Ward Harrrison, has designed a beautiful textile filled with wonderful words of inspiration for the Bella.
