Halloween 'Hangover'-style Part Deux: eyewear for you (and baby)
In an effort to help you complete that Alan Garner Halloween costume (you know you're thinking about it), we've already showed you where to get the shirt, the satchel and the beard. This morning, the Rage's sister-in-law has done the eyewear sleuthing for him.
She sent me a link to a cool website called Sunglasses ID that's pretty self-explanatory -- it specializes in identifying what celebrity was wearing what make and style of sunglasses at a given time. According to that site, the aviator-style sunglasses worn by Zach Galifianakis are Demi Tortoise Nylon Blublockers, a fact that is confirmed at Blublockers' website -- where you can place an order. Two pair (don't forget baby!) plus shipping via USPS will run you $45.85.
But the reaction when you wear your completed, authentic "lone wolf" Halloween costume a second time -- perhaps at a Vegas bachelor party -- will be priceless.

I am going as Alan Garner for Halloween, and my friend worked as a costume assistant on The Hangover, so he told me where they got each of the items. As Adam already said, the shirt is from Urban Outfitters and the sunglasses are tortoise Blublockers. My friend also told me the jeans are white Levi's 501s, the baby carrier is the Baby Bjorn Original Carrier from Target, the baby's clothes are from babyGap, and the shoes are Saucony's from Sports Chalet. Happy Halloween!
