In the chapter, "Style Bunny," Fifi shares her 10 Most Useful Accessories You Will Ever Own. Drumroll, please...

  1. A cocktail ring. "A great conversation starter. Especially if yours is a family heirloom from the Watership Down dynasty."

  2. A clutch. "For evening glam, you can't just carry any old bag. Make it a sparkler for added va-va-voom."

  3. A gold necklace with a simple pendant. "Or silver if you prefer. Make the pendant something small and classic—a tiny bird, a small heart, or a single diamond— for a chic look."

  4. A classic watch. "Gold or silver, slim, and dainty. These are the watchwords for an elegant timepiece."

  5. A belt. "A flattering addition to your wardrobe. Never underestimate the power of cinching in your waistline to create the classic hourglass shape."

  1. Fabulous sunglasses. "Even if you don't need to hide your dark circles from the paparazzi a la moi, you will always feel like a superstar wearing a giant pair of designer sunnies."

  2. Flats. "Whatever happens to be on trend, be it ballet slippers, smart brogues, or jazz shoes, a practical pair of fashionable flats will never let down a carefully considered outfit."

  3. A bangle. "A great way to add a pop of color. There are lots of stunning vintage examples out there. Glass, wood, or enameled are perfect; if it's made of bakelite, it's allowed, but ditch anything made of cheap plastic."

  4. A scarf. "The right one can add a touch of cool to an outfit, but don't just tie it at the neck. A headscarf and huge shades will let you live out those movie starlet daydreams, or just attach it to your bag strap to add a spot of color to an outfit."

  5. A leather day bag. "Splash out what you can on this investment piece. A great-quality leather bag will stand the test of time in the style stakes and will only look better with age. It's not often you get to say that."
