Guess Who Designed This Alligator Chair and T-Shirt?

A pair of brothers, known for their furniture designs made of unconventional materials, designed this Alligator Chair in 2004.

A pair of brothers, known for their furniture designs made of unconventional materials, designed this Alligator Chair in 2004. It must have made a good impression on Lacoste, because the brand commissioned the duo, the world's most famous Brazilian designers, to create this limited edition t-shirt. It's embroidered with vines of the iconic Lacoste alligator and inspired by the vines that grow in trees in Brazilian rain forests. The t-shirt sells for $1,900 and benefits a women's cooperative called Coopa-Roca in Brazil. Can you name the designers who designed both this alligator chair and t-shirt? (Just name their last name.)

You're So Money

Men may be the new women but we love it even more when women are the new men.
Alligator Money ClipMen may be the new women but we love it even more when women are the new men. Community member Blooming Lily wrote up some darling Looka money clips that got us started on our latest women co-opting menswear kick. After all we constantly have loose dollar bills running around our giant Gucci tote (and we constantly make cracks about going to Scores because of it) thus we ask why settle for cute girly money clips when you can have hot masculine ones? An alligator money clip from Brooks Brothers turns us on even more than the feminine counterpart from Nancy Gonzales (and its cheaper). We found options from skull money clips to Swiss army knife clips. But don't worry we threw in a few more feminine options just in case.

The Price of Being Mommy's Favorite

Seeing your pup longingly look up at you from inside the open jaws of an alligator ain't cute lady.

Seeing your pup longingly look up at you from inside the open jaws of an alligator ain't cute lady. It's sick. Even your dog thinks this gag is inappropriate. That's why he's pawing at you to take the damn thing off already. He would have at least preferred something less bullky. An obnoxious Hello Kitty headpiece maybe? Or a few faux spider legs? But the current getup is killing his game — swallowed alligator bait ain't exactly the stuff players are made of.

Naked + Alligator + Smoking Crack = Wack

Crack is wack, but do it naked and add an angry alligator, and you pretty much have this guy's crappy day yesterday.

Crack is wack, but do it naked and add an angry alligator, and you pretty much have this guy's crappy day yesterday.

Responding to calls from his neighbors, police in Florida arrived at 4 a.m. to the murky scene of a naked man struggling in a lake in the jaws of an 11-foot alligator. It took four officers about thirty seconds in a "tug-of-war" with the beast before they were able to pry him away. The man later told police he had been smoking crack, but it's still unclear what he was doing at the lake. In the latest update, he broke one arm and probably lost another. He's in critical condition and of course I hope he pulls through.

I gotta say, though, I'm beginning to agree with Drew Curtis over at Fark: Florida might in fact be a category all its own. Some really, really strange things happen there. Often.
