...around $250. The “lady of your life,” as Belle de Jour insists on calling her, will certainly appreciate the gesture. As a special for Valentine’s Day Belle de Jour also offers a great selection of red and pink items, including see-through panties for around $50. Although these items may seem a bit pricey, with Dominique on hand, even the most conservative shopper may have trouble saying...
When I pointed out my confusion over Cavalli's $1,300 see-through pink miniskirt, Tiffany had me examine its beading and detailing. I told her that most guys wouldn't pick up on the beading and detailing when they're staring at something else. "Women dress for women," Tiffany explained.

Some of the year's top buildings played with teasing, gauzy see-through effects, and you could scarcely buy consumer goods not skinned in Technicolor plastic: the Handspring Visor personal digital assistant, the Power Mac G4 Cube, translucent trash cans and toilet-brush holders from the likes of Ikea and Target. And magazines and books were rife with die-cut covers. The luminous transparent things of 2000 thrummed with Jell-O-colored energy...
