  • Patent number: 12550986
    Abstract: A carry bag assembly that includes a first shoulder bag and a smaller second hand bag. The two bags can be carried separately as a unit. The first shoulder bag has a front surface, a rear surface, a first side surface, and a second side surface. Two bands extend from the shoulder bag that extend beyond the front surface of the shoulder bag. The second hand bag contains a first belt loop and a second belt loop. The belt loops receive the bands that extend from the shoulder bag. Mechanical connectors connecting the first band to the second band around the hand bag. This selectively locks the smaller hand bag into a fixed position against the front surface of the larger shoulder bag. The two bags can share graphics of design themes so that the two bags appear to be a single unit when attached.

  • Publication number: 20250241421
    Abstract: A carry bag is provided that has exterior surfaces. A cut-out panel is provided that is configured with a character with a theme that is shared by graphics used on the exterior surfaces of the carry bag. A mounting system is used to join the cut-out panel to the carry bag or to a pocket extension on the carry bag. The mounting system enables the cut-out panel to move through a range of motion relative to the carry bag while remaining attached to the carry bag. At least some of the cut-out panel covers at least some of the exterior surfaces of the carry bag at some positions within its range of motion. In this manner, at least some of the cut-out panel is visible on the exterior of the carry bag and the position of the cut-out panel can be selectively altered by the user.

  • Publication number: 20230240434
    Abstract: A fashion coordinated carry bag assembly that includes a main bag and a pocket extension. The pocket extension can be a separate smaller bag or an integrated extension of the main bag. The main bag and the pocket extension both have access openings. Straps are disposed at one or both of the access openings. The straps are used to secure fashion accessories to the carry bag assembly. The fashion accessories have decorative elements that remain visible when the fashion accessories are attached to the carry bad assembly. Accordingly, when the fashion accessories are attached to the carry bag assembly, the decorative elements appear to be part of the overall carry bag assembly. When the fashion accessories are detached from the carry bag assembly, each fashion accessory can be worn separately, therein creating a fashion coordinated ensemble.
