I try to stay up-to-date on the latest products, particularly in the design world. They spark new ideas for the home, wardrobe and daily life. But recently, ABC News reported on a selection of consumer products that extend beyond the imagination (and reality) and are, at the very least, fascinating.

We’re talking baby toupees and Snuggies for pets. Yes, these are actual products. Here’s a list of my favs:

Handerpants

handerpants

If tighty whities weren’t, um, appealing enough as undergarments, why not bring them to the forefront of fashion as fingerless gloves? Yes, everyone should wear underwear on the outside.

Baby Toupee

Most parents are just thankful to have babies with 10 fingers and 10 toes. But hey, if your little one is lacking in the hair department, why not jazz him/her up a bit with a baby toupee?

Snuggies for pets

Frankly, my sister’s dog Bella would love this ridiculousness. She’s a very spoiled mini Dachshund and loves to snuggle under the blanket. Now, she can take the blanket all around the house too. Maybe she’ll be so smitten, she’ll sleep past 6:30 a.m.
