Check out a few of our favorite, completely frivolous but still very necessary Barack-inspired accessories.
Barack beat John McCain by a landslide, taking a few Southern states, yadda, yadda, yadda. What really matters is that he won. This handcrafted, oversized leather clutch says it all.

It’s pretty much the best slogan since "I Want My MTV," so why wouldn’t you want to wear it around your neck?

Dangling earrings are always a fun, whimsical treat for our cheeks and shoulders, so adding Barack Obama’s now iconic "rising sun" image to a pair is really a genius idea. Plus, we love the hand-beading.

Black girls know that nameplate necklaces were popular way before Sex and the City. They’ve never really gone out of style for us. Case in point: this fierce blue mirrored Obama nameplate.

Why is it that people always forget the second part to the classic James Brown lyric "This a man’s world, but it would be nothing without a woman or girl"? Barack may be the next president, but his right-hand woman, Michelle, is endlessly captivating. Which is why this keepsake box, emblazoned with her face, is so necessary.

The tote pretty much says it all: We love our future prez!
