Stud quota met?

Studs are making a come back in popular fashion. Since 2010 we've seen more and more studs and spikes creeping into the fashion collections of Sam Edelman, Christian Louboutin and countless others. As a matter of fact, Louboutin's pre-spring/summer 2012 collection features two show-stopper pumps in gold and brown. Check them out on Vogue's UK website. They're excellent for a cocktail party and are the perfect accessory during any downtown mugging.
There is a point though that you draw the line when it comes to metal adornments whether you get them in a store or attach them yourself.

When your foot wear looks like it's contracted some horrific disease and is more suitable for the pages of Gray's Anatomy than a fashion magazine, you might have gone overboard.
The point of the spike is to show that you're a badass and to give you a bit of an edge, but these shoes are a travesty. The Barbie heads are a charming touch as well.

Carlashes

We've now heard it all. Carlashes! Quote:"Decorative Fashion Accessory". Normally reserved for women and drag queens to torture themselves with, now your cars can join in on the fun too. Eyelashes for your car, available at Amazon no less, are a decorative solution for those tired, droopy looking headlights.

I'm sure it would cost more to ship these than they're worth in time and money.

Value: 4/5
Ridiculousness: 5/5
Eyecatching: 5/5

Neat tip: Try old motor oil as a mascara substitute!
Tools needed: Paint brush and annual pass to Disney World.
