Look Who Will Be at Fashion Week: The Snuggie!
Dolce & Gabbana, Chanel, and Rodarte are going to have to save some space on the runway during New York Fashion Week, because the folks who brought you the Snuggie — you know, the blanket with sleeves! — are going to stage a runway show of their own “to showcase the latest colors, fabrics, and patterns” and “to dish about the sexiest looks in blanket-wear.”
That’s right — blanket-wear. Not only are the Snuggie peeps considering comfort when designing for women, they’re thumbing their noses at the size barrier that keeps some models off the runway.
Introducing: The SnugWow!
It was only a matter of time before The Snuggie and the Sham Wow mated to become the vestment/absorbent towel of choice for couch potatoes everywhere! Why get up to grab a paper towel because you just spilled beer or nacho cheese sauce all over your Snuggie when you can just wipe up your mess with your blanket/towel/cult member's robe? I would draw the line at taking bathroom breaks from the comfort of your couch, though.
The WTF?! Blanket!
First there was The Slanket, then The Snuggie, and now, a product that makes fun of both of them, the WTF?! blanket. It's guaranteed to ruin your sex life, ruin your child's self-esteem, but hey — it comes with a free flashlight!
Product of the Day: The Snuggie
I love the arguments for why you need the Snuggie (which is essentially a blanket with sleeves). Blankets are inferior, because "they slip and slide." And with a blanket, there's the risk that your hands can "get trapped inside" while you're on the couch watching the teevee.

Wish I Had Been There: The SF Snuggie Pub Crawl
Talk about taking a Snuggie and making it your own. This Lady Gaga look-alike decided that she had to glam up what is essentially a blanket robe for the extreme couch potato. And where else to debut the odd look than at this San Francisco Snuggie pub crawl?

Website of the Day: Pantalaine, Provisioners of America's Finest Plural Clothing
I so want to believe that Pantalaine really has been "Provisioners of America's Finest Plural Clothing" since 1950, but something tells me that they are just getting their jollies making fun of the unfortunately real Slankets and Snuggies out there. Having said that, I kind of like the idea of mutated accessories and clothing that encourages interaction with our fellow humans. Want to know what I'm talking about?
