Pocket Protector
I always use a pocket protector on my lab coat. Sharpies can explode!! It's as much a part of laboratory bling as a HUGE capacity USB stick around your neck, or a sweet iTouch for rocking out in the tissue culture room, or a nice green coloured laser pointer, or a personal copy of Sambrook & Maniatis.

My favourite lab bling: my prescription lab safety glasses.
The heavily stained lab coat seems to be a popular one.
I can't believe you forgot to mention the solar-powered calculator...

Pens! Courtesy of some pharmaceutical company.
I never realized the value of double ended sharpies until I left an institute which stocked them for free. I would also count a P2 as bling if you have your own (which I suggest keeping in your lab coat before the influx of new summer students shows up-if you want to keep it intact-haha)
