Apparently German designer Karl Lagerfeld was able to put down his iPod collection long enough to dress this Steiff teddy bear like a eurotrash secret service agent. Your $1,500 investment gets you this 14.5″H bear with jointed limbs, crystal-studded tie and belt buckle, tailor-made leather boots and miniature sunglasses designed after Karl’s own shades. You’ll also get a scribble of the bear drawn and signed by Lagerfeld, and the satisfaction of knowing that you’re also indirectly supporting the fine people of Apple Computers.

With a pair of these self-adhesive mirrors on the wall, you can check yourself out just like if you were looking at someone with mirrored sunglasses on. But these won’t make you feel creepy when you can’t see where that person’s eyes are looking. The aviator theme is unmistakable with that unique shape.

People watching in the bars is half the fun of going there. See which of your group is most observant by playing Bar Bingo. Fill in the squares by finding the listed activities happening, such as the oddball wearing sunglasses inside, someone trying to pick up a lady, the bartender using a cocktail shaker and more. A lot more fun than listening to the droning of a bingo caller.

Forget man—hunting this monstrosity has got to be the most dangerous game of all. Restaurateurs, picture this baby wearing a sombrero, sunglasses and a Hawaiian shirt. Now that’s target marketing! An additional wall mounted demon rabbit is pictured after the break.

The Flexible Embrace Auto Holder will lock just about anything into its cartoon-esque embrace to keep it in place as you travel. Setting the hands high and low on whatever it is holding gives it a much more secure grasp on the item. The holder attaches to your dashboard with a dash sticker, as they call it, so maybe having it hold that soda as pictured is not such a great idea. Having it come loose from your dashboard while holding something like your cell phone would not be nearly as likely to cause an accident as 12 ounces of soda soaking both your leg and iPod.

Some sharks will take your leg off in a flash. We don’t mess with those. We prefer sharks like this guy who will gladly hold your beverage for as long as you deem it necessary. And what is the difference between those two types of sharks? Apparently it is a Hawaiian shirt and a pair of sunglasses. Not that I am profiling sharks, of course.

You never know what is going to float to the top of the water in the bathtub. The Willy Bathplug not only lets you find the drain plug, he does it very discreetly. To keep his profile low he wears a pair of sunglasses. That either makes him very cool or a bit lecherous. Either way, hanging around bathtubs wearing nothing but shades is not exactly puritan behavior.

Your kid will be the coolest at summer camp with his alligator sunglasses. Just having a pair of shades is a good first step, but he will have an air of danger with the pair of gators as ear pieces. Then all you have to do is figure out a way to snag them for yourself. Being cool at camp is one thing, having an accessory that chicks dig is probably a more worthy use for these.

Leave this hat around at your next party. Some people may think it would be real amusing to put it on making them the life of the party. And it is at that point you know that it is time for them to go. What other use would you have for a hat that has an iridescent mug, silver lame handle and berber fleece froth?
Now before you run to buy this, just be aware that the sunglasses are not included with the hat.

These would be cool mugs to server some tropical drink in. The ceramic mugs are Maori inspired and hold 20 ounces of fluid. They can remind you of actually being in a tropical resort while sipping that drink.
I was not aware that the ancient Maori already had sunglasses though. That is news to me.
