Vestalife Ladybug Speakers

Ole Blue Eyes said it best: Luck be a lady tonight.

Especially if said lady is in possession of a Vestalife Ladybug. The brand new spherical gadget resembles the cute insect, but it pumps up iPod jams to impressive decibels.

Bring it along wherever you go, and when you’re ready to bust a move, simply flip out the wings (i.e., speakers), dock the iPod, and either plug it in or go wireless with four AA batteries. A built-in subwoofer and digital amplifier (untz, untz, untz) give the Ladybug serious street cred. And bonus points for options like video output, USB connection, and remote control.

Available in red or silver, it comes with a tote, making it easy to bring along wherever you go.

After all, a lady never leaves her escort.
