suit

The best science fiction accessories are the subtle kind – like these Star Trek cufflinks. You could wear a shiny piece of Starfleet bling around your neck, but it just won’t work in every situation. Plus, think how nicely these cufflinks will catch the lights on the bridge when you say, “Engage!” (with the accompanying hand gesture). The Big Bad Toy Store has options, too. You can choose the Enterprise, the Starfleet logo, or the Starfleet Academy Red Squadron logo.

Is a suit? Is it pajamas? It’s both, and yes, it is glorious. You’ve always wanted to be like Barney Stinson, right? I thougth so.

Made from a silk-satin combo, the Suitjamas offer the finest in multipurpose comfort. They also make mornings easy. No need to choose a suit and iron it, just roll out of bed and put on some slippers. The four piece set even has functional pockets. I don’t recommend taking your pocket protector to bed though; it sends the wrong message.

The guys at io9 recently conducted an interview with Shane Mahan, head of Stan Winston’s studio, who created Iron Man’s armor. Aside from reporting on the weight, features and practicality of the suit used in Iron Man 2, he also revealed the secrets of the “comic book body type”. You’ll be depressed to know that nobody could never have a body like Iron Man based on the law of “comic book proportions”. Those features include very broad shoulders, very narrow hips, really long legs and the smallest head possible.

Whether you’re a jealous and controlling mate, or you simply feel like sweating profusely in what amounts to an over-sized sausage casing (as all the while you are being forced to dance “The Bump” with your equally unfortunate partner) you will find what you’ve been looking for with the Codependency Suit.  A word of caution, you might need to make your partnership a Ménage à trois, lest you find yourself unable to zip this sucker up.

Sleeping duds that look like they came from Savile Row, or an Alfalfa costume…You decide.

A suit and tie is a very professional look for men at the office. Women have their own apparel that also looks very nice, but it isn’t quite the same. With this bag she can bring her very own pinstripe suit and silk tie to the office without looking fairly silly by wearing an actual suit and tie.
