Keep one foot firmly planted in your childhood with these unique unicorn innovations. These majestic mythical creatures have been enjoying a resurgence of ironic popularity, and it's not hard to see why. More and more emerging adults have shunned the drab gray existence of corporate life in favor of sparkles, fairies and lollipops, and given the state of the economy, who can blame them?
From unicorn sandwiches to Cosby show-style sweaters, the allusive unicorn is cropping up in a lot of unexpected places. With so many magical rumors circulating about this glorious beast, it's no small wonder onlookers all stand in amazement. You'll be hunting for your copy of 'The Last Unicorn' (yes, the VHS you hide in the bottom of your closet) for a nostalgic re-watch after you get a load of these mystical unicorn innovations.
Magical, mystical and wonderfully whimsical, these unicorn innovations will make you believe all over again.
