Internet discount retailer Bluefly has spawned a moody, hormonal teen. B*fly, a new addition geared to the Clearasil set, offers Joie, Generra, Free People and other junior-minded designers. But will those sullen, selective kids bite? (Teens these days are more label conscious than ever and will babysit every night to afford a Gucci bag or a Chanel cell phone holder.)

U.S. teens have spent $1.65 trillion over the past ten years--according to Teen Research Unlimited in Chicago. They spend about $70 per week too. That means it will take one of them a little over a month to save up for Tom Ford sunglasses, which sell on b*fly for $224.99.
How much do you let your teen spend on accessories?
