The invention of the coffee sleeve was a pretty clever bit of thinking outside the cup. The Rika, a mock croc leather coffee sleeve from Jimmy Choo, is well… a pretty clever bit of thinking outside the pocketbook. Way outside at $165 a pop.

…and of course, the fact that it opens bottles of wine quickly and easily. Hoot!

Considering that the greatest social faux pas is serving stale crackers with a cheese ball, these things might just be the height of refinement.
