...boardroom. Bottega Veneta: The Italian house has adorned the arms of fashionable women since the 1970s. Go for a $1,500 hand-painted python tube designed by Tomas Maier. Snap-closure compartments give it a practical twist, with enough room for your mobile phone and PDA.

Hogan: Part of the Tod's Group, Hogan's stylish bags have the same legendary quality but less of the sticker shock...
Once upon a time, if you wanted to dress your child as a miniature--yet fashionable--version of yourself, the world of Lilly Pulitzer was yours to choose from, and that was about it. No more.

With his pay slashed a total of 40%, he and his wife have stopped all leisure travel, including their annual Christmas trip to visit family in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
