Cold? Throw on a Snuggie (Suit)
Snuggle Style
Ok, we need to talk about this.
Though we mocked Snuggies when they first came out, we realized in time that they are warm and actually kind of convenient. Then we accepted Snuggie into our lives so much that we allowed them to put on a runway show at NY fashion week this year.
But I fear that the time of mockery may be back with Snuggie’s newest incarnation: the Snuggle Suit. Available for just $24.99 in four colors at JCPenny.com, the Snuggie Suit is not just a blanket with arms, but a blanket with arms AND legs. How could you go wrong with a hot pink one-piece fleece suit? Just read the online review from this satisfied customer (courtesty of bestweekever.tv):

“I love that it can be worn as a lounger as much as Pj’s and you look more presentable. After getting red for Christmas last year, I immediately ordered black in two sizes and black for my mother-who is always cold. I bought my regular size in black and a bigger one so I can sleep in it an not feel restricted if it twists from rolling over. I eventually realize if I just took off the belt from my regular size, I could roll over with no restrictions, but it does tend to “flop open” and flash people – especially without the belt so I usually pin it or stick a hair clip on it if I am around the house and don’t need to be presentable – of course a cute tank top underneath would solve that problem, but I love the feel of fleece and a shirt underneath ruins the feel.
So there you have it. The Snuggle Suit, everone.
What do you think? Will you be picking up one of these?
Snuggies: Now a sex aid?
A friend of mine recently sent me a link to The Snuggie Sutra. We had to discuss…is this gratuitous or genius?
I think I’m kind of leaning toward genius here. I mean, how many of us have snuggies? Don’t lie. You got one when you were out at Target or Bed Bath and Beyond because you thought it would be funny (or a friend gave it to you for the same reason). Your mom or grandmother got you one because she saw the commercial and legitimately thought you’d be more comfortable in that drafty dorm room (or God forbid, office) with a big blue fleece. You just had to have that free reading light that comes in the box.
But now the novelty has worn off. Sure, they are refreshing the brand with animal prints and snuggies for dogs, but I’m just not buying it. I applaud the creators of the Snuggie Sutra for their creativity. After all, this is still a recession…how much money are YOU throwing away on needless sex aids every year?
