Just in case you were thinking that wearable technology is all about biometric sensing smart clothes, fitness trackers and smartwatches, here’s a little reminder that it’s not.

In the not so distant future we will be up to our ankles in wearables of all shapes, sizes and functions! If you think that counting steps, and receiving alerts on your wrist is a little boring, or sub par in terms of the potential that wearables can offer, don’t worry you’re not alone!

The fact is, what we wear has always been about comfort and looks. Functionality has never really entered the frame, maybe apart from wrist watches. This fact isn’t going to change any time soon, thus looks will remain the number one reason we buy apparel!

Wearables that change color and patterns is the ultimate destination for the industry, but of course if you throw in the ability to count steps, track heart rate data, and whatever other gagety affair into mix, it won’t be a bad thing, in fact – quite the opposite!

VanDerWaals color changing handbags are the perfect manifestation of the future of wearable technology, and considering they’re already available to pre-order, the future is near!
