    Which Overpriced Kiddie Toy Is The Most Ridiculous?

    Most parents these days will tell you that there isn't anything in the world they wouldn't do for their kids. Sometimes, these unconditional expressions enter the realm of gift-giving, and the high-end retailers know this better than anyone because I've seen more ridiculously overpriced children's gifts and toys this year than in any other. I don't even need to mention the current state of our economy to drive home my point that no child needs a crystal-encrusted piggy bank, a BMW Z4 Roadster, or a Swarovski tricycle, unless of course they're unnaturally motivated in their quest to appear on My Super Sweet Sixteen. I can't imagine a child even asking for one of these, but if they do, a word of advice- the Neiman Marcus Christmas Book? Not a bedtime story.

    Give your bedroom the royal treatment with home decor items fit for the queen that you are.

These Rococo-inspired fabric tote boxes would be an excellent way to store your favorite out-of-season items, and would add regal whimsy to any wardrobe. And what royal room could ever be complete without a crown? This adorable Juicy Couture porcelain crown does double-duty as a cute home accessory and a chic way to store loose change.
