If you live in colder climes the way we do, the idea of adorning your feet might seem a little silly. After all, you've been wearing socks since October. Remember, though, that sandal and barefoot season is only a few months away, and who says your feet can't look pretty when you're warm at home? And as for you SmartLassies who live in places warm enough to wear these now, we'll set aside our jealousy and hope these colorful, beaded foot thongs will make you look as gorgeous as we know you are. $4.75 each in your choice of 7 styles .

Hey there, Long Jane Stockinglover! Do your legs go all the way down the street and come back with a newspaper and a cup of coffee? These are for you, because they're extra-long, like that line your legs waited in at the corner coffeeshop behind that type-A businessman who complained that his latte was supposed to be 150 degrees, but it came out at 160, which was totally unacceptable. In that situation, if you were wearing these socks, you could kick that guy, and he'd forever remember the day he got his shins bruised by the lady in pink stripey socks. Fits size 9-11. Made of 70% cotton, 10% nylon, 18% spandex, and 2% rubber.

As those guys from Monty Python's Holy Grail would tell you, there are some bunnies just not worth messing with. I wouldn't want to mess with Death Bunny, and especially not the lovely SmartLassy wearing this scarf. It's warm, it's black and pink, it's 100% acrylic, and it's utterly nonsensical, which is a trait we enjoy around here. Death Bunny scarf costs $6.95 + shipping.

"I have a PowerBook G4 and a Mac Mini, both of which have the old Power PC processors, which is why I'm probably not going to upgrade to CS3 because Adobe optimized it for the new Intel processors. I just upgraded to Leopard, but I haven't set up Time Machine yet, and I really don't get this 'stacking' thing, so I might make a trip to the Genius Bar for a few pointers." Did you understand any of that? If the answer is yes, you should buy this button. If you didn't understand it, you can still buy the pin, but just so no one thinks you're a poser, if anyone ever comes up to you and starts blathering Mac-speak, just roll your eyes and say, "Yeah, but remember OS9? And the G4 Cube? Gawd!" These quality pinback buttons measure 1.25" in diameter, and we'll trade you $1.95 for one, plus $1 shipping.
