Karl Lagerfeld x Steiff: Teddy Bear Fierceness!

"In the world of limited editions, the sky is the limit." Who said it?

If you guessed the wise person who uttered such words is yours truly, you're very right! A pat on your shoulder just for you. I like the word "fierce" even way before Christian Siriano made it sound cool. However, in the land of fierceness, this must be level 10: introducing "Karl Lagerfeld x Steiff", a LE unlike any others!

Yup, you got it right, Unkle Karl (aka Karl Lagerfeld, head designer of Chanel, Fendi, Chloe and his own brand) has a teddy bear of his own! How fierce is that? The teddy bear is his collaboration with the famous German t-bear producer Steiff. If you watch Antique Roadshow as religious as I am, you know an antique Steiff plushie does not come cheap. So Unkle Karl beary counter part does not come cheap: only 2500 of these guys will be sold and each will rob cost you $1,500 USD. It's does not cost much to own an alpaca teddy bear that resembles the greatest desginer of the 20th century, does it? Plus, the bear wears everything that Unkle Karl does, from the sunglasses to the leather pants. That is what I call fierceness, people!

More details on the teddy bear after the jump, of course.


Upper body, notice the diamond pin

The bear has his bling belt

If you're still wondering why I wrote such an "interesting" entry, let me tell you: I love teddy bears, like, a lot! My teddy bear wanted to make an interweb debut since forever! Introducing my teddy bear and writing partner. This scruffy honey bear is nowhere near that $1,500 USD neighborhood but he's as fuzzy and loving to me. I *heart* you Bibi bear!

Do you have a teddy bear? Did you play with one when you were a kid? Or does your child have one? Teddy bears are very cute and comfy. Plus Kayne West likes them so I'm not the only one, ok?

That's all for Friday. Have a lovely weekend y'all!

Love from your makeup blogger and her writing partner :D

  2. Hi Roxy,

    I'm going to your blog to see your nominations really soon! The teddy bear is so cute that I have to put it up here. Karl Lagerfield probably is the first person who has a teddy bear counter part. He's so fierce!

  5. Hi Alyssa,

    Thanks for your reply, I may need to drive a little bit further to another Walgreens. The one near my place is kinda small.

    I think Blogger fixed the problem already. Today I see all the replies, hope yours is performing fine as well.

  7. I'm also a right hand myself. To be honest if you notice my pictures, it's always my left hand... hehe~ I'm still not good with my right hand, but I just take it however it turns out. :X

  8. Hi Alyssa,

    Thank you for your comment. It's so difficult to do the right hand and I'm trying my best. So there will be no nail decoration pictures anytime soon for me :)
