Tosca escapes! Had Tosca evaded Scarpia's clutches, what might she have thrown into her satchel for the trip to Civitavecchia?
Floria Tosca will be traveling light--and incognito--so let's start with a pair of diva-worthy sunglasses ($210, Prada, 45 East 57th Street, www.prada.com) and a smart leather tote bag ($1,255, also from Prada) big enough for a few crime-scene souvenirs (14-inch sterling silver candlesticks, $11,660 the pair, Buccellati, 46 East 57th Street, 212-308-2900; carving knife with ivory-and-silver handle, from an antique three-piece set, $785, James II Galleries, Ltd., 11 East 57th Street, 355-7040; Palacio De Muruzabal/Navarra red wine, $44.99, Crossroads Wines and Liquors, 55 West 14th Street, 212-924-3060). But what else to pack? Tosca needs to put on some speed (Reebok Cyclosprints running shoes, $75, www.reebok.com, 1-800-Reebok 1) and throw her enemies off her trail with some fresh scents (3.3 fl. oz "Vicolo Fiori" eau de toilette, $80, Etro, 720 Madison Ave, 212-317-9096; Altoids[TM] mints, $1.99, Duane Reade). She'll need good communications equipment (Nokia's model 8265 cell phone, prices beginning at $150 depending on carrier, 1-888-665-4228; Le Grand de Montblanc "Traveller" fountain pen, $375, Montblanc's handcrafted "Meister-Butten" notecards, $120 per 100, www.montblanc pens.com, 1-800-995-4810). To keep her spirits up, the diva will need traveling music (soundtrack of Franco Zeffirelli's new film Callas Forever, $17.98, available in 2003) and travel rations (6.34 oz. jar of pate de foie gras, $60, Fauchon, 442 Park Avenue at 56th Street, 212-308-5919, www.fauchon.com; 13.5 oz. gift box, $55, La Maison du Chocolat, 1018 Madison Avenue, 1-800-LMDC, ...
