Vanity Fair Magazine (who oughtta know) estimates the cost of Cindy McCain's Tuesday night Convention attire at $300,000 (which doesn't include false eyelashes or panties):

Oscar de la Renta dress: $3,000
Chanel J12 White Ceramic Watch: $4,500
Three-carat diamond earrings: $280,000
Four-strand pearl necklace: $11,000–$25,000

Geee, for that price the McCains coulda bought one more house on today's market, and really helped the economy out.
