Lego sunglasses let you build your own fashion

Lego sunglasses let you build your own fashion

Legos are maybe the world's best toy, what with them allowing kids to build whatever they want to play with that day. So why not bring them into more everyday objects? These sunglasses do just that.

Lego teamed up with French optical company Lynx Optique to create these sweet Lego sunglasses that feature Lego bricks on the sides. In theory, you could build whatever you want on them depending on your mood. Designing your own fashion just like designing your own toys. We need this Lego sensibility in more places.

An absolutely wonderful idea. Imagine laptops with the same Lego style on them.

Flatscreens and TV screens with lego around the edges so you can build your own design.

There is no plural for the brand name Lego - maybe Lego bricks, or Lego pieces, but not Legos...

Not sure that I like the glasses, but I love the idea of lego functionality on surprising objects.

FAO 'sp is retarded' - you are (or you're - not youre) playing with lego's what? By using an apostrohe you have made an arse of yourself.

Why didn't you throw one of them into either of the places they were needed in your comment?

SP is correct
