Fresh Breath?

I can’t help it. I think these are cool! They would be great for weddings, restaurants or even new product launches.

HIP

I saw this very cool looking guy in the Newark airport a couple of weeks ago. Turns out he was boarding our plane headed to Austin (for SXSW no doubt). He had that great laidback artistic look about him but without taking it too far. (I’m looking at you Adam Lambert…just kidding because I kinda love you…what do you want from meeee?). Anyway, he had a cool neoprene laptop sleeve casually slung over his shoulder branded with the IFC logo. I immediately wanted to be a girl version of him. But since that is virtually impossible, I guess I’ll settle for the sleeve. Sniffle.

for real

These beauties were picked as the “Most Unique” promotional product for 2010.
Ugh, I guess that's one way of putting it! Do you want rally hair!?

tsk tsk

Someone should have advised this guy to say no to the it's-a-blanket-but-now-it's-a-poncho picture. Poor dear.

Fold-n-GO

I am a big fan of the reusable tote bag. I’m not a tree hugger by any means but it seems pretty gross to me that there is a trash pile as big as the state of Texas floating in the Pacific Ocean. Now, if I could just remember to take them with me to the grocery store. Oops! That is why I think anything that is foldable and that can get lost in the bottom of my gigantic purse until needed is brilliant. Maybe I won’t get the stink eye from the environmentally conscious checkout lady anymore!

Coolies...Koozies...Beverage Sleeves

Whatever you want to call them, we've got them, and they are on sale!

T-Shirt Wars

Burnout t-shirts and tanks are everywhere right now. And I have to admit, I’m sort of digging them. I’ve seen a few here and there that have cool logos or graphics screened on them. But when talking t-shirts, things can go awry quickly. Case in point: those damn Jersey Shore kids. And don’t get me started on Ed Hardy…no offense but yuck! And if I actually see anyone wearing the tie-dye stuff I’ve spotted lately in trade mags, we’re seriously going to have a problem. Avoid dark alleys is all I’m saying. But for everyone else, I give a thumbs up.

So to review, say NO NO NO to:
