...Louis Vuitton. And the boots? Try Roberto Cavalli, Celine, Chanel, Dries Van Noten, Dolce & Gabbana and, well, just about anyone. The trick to the mix is to limit yourself to no more than two of the three items. And if you want to invest in just one, the tall flat boots are the trend that will last.

...loyal soldier assigned the job of vanquishing Heinecke. The only painting in Chew's Sukhumvit Road office is a portrait of the ranking officer of the fast-food business, Colonel Sanders. Behind Chew's desk, left over from a KFC-Star Wars promotion, looms a 6-ft. tall statue of Darth Vader wielding his laser. Chew, a former lieutenant in the Singapore army, talks about being a "general'' in this conflict. Still, he could be busted down to buck private if he loses to a no-name pizza company.

After dealing with the above challenges for an entire lifetime, there's an unspoken bond between tall women everywhere. Towering 11 inches over the average American female is a very distinctive experience. (I should mention that "tall" is a relative term. In France, 5'7" makes a woman tall; the tallest woman at Harvard, who is 6'11", doesn't consider me tall.)
