When Olivia Newton-John said, "Tell me about it... stud" in the film classic "Grease," she wasn't talking to Danny Zuko, she was referring to her Calleen Cordero Studded Triple Wrap Belt. Shown here quadruple-wrapped on a super-tiny model waist, the inflated price tag is a mere bargain for fashion enthusiasts with recession immunity. ($248)

Wite-Out
Hannibal Lecter said to Clarice, "We begin by coveting what we see every day." And thus every day, the Furla Ninfea chain purse stares back at me from it's place of honor in the center window display. Soft and supple, the python stamped leather feels better than actual python skin. Gathered together with resin bracelet chains, the bag closely resembles a Pillsbury® Crescent roll. Have it with some fava beans and a nice chianti. Mmmm. ($625)

Thermoplastic Pumps
The Great Jelly Revival of 2007 passed me by. Why shell out payola for the poorly made copies of what I wore in the 80s? Fast-forward to the Lady Dragon shoe, a Vivienne Westwood Anglomania collab-o with PVC purveyor Melissa for a more adult re-invention. Barbie shoes for big girls, if you will. Sweet, sexy, sultry although perhaps a bit sweaty in the summer, she's a must-have for spring. ($175)

Booby Trap
Sure I've got little black dresses practically bursting out of the closet, but do I have any of the one-shoulder-origami-fold variety? That would be a no... Enter the Fran Dress by Preen, the answer to my wiggle-dress dreams. From the bra-hook back closure and the nip/tuck waist to the exposed golden side-zipper, it's not for the modest or reserved. Accessorize with, Jimmy Choo booties, stacked bracelets, a fresh pair of Spanx and a Sasha Fierce alter-ego. ($920)

Bone Cuffs-n-Harmony
Wonder Woman's arsenal included a pair of bullet-deflecting golden bracelets. Should Beyoncé score the role as Amazon Princess, let's hope the wardrobe includes the Bone Cuff in 18K yellow gold. Famed jewelry designer Elsa Peretti re-forged the iconic accessory into a completely organic shape based on the contours of human anatomy. Lovey! ($6,400)
