Desperately Seeking Ideas For Blue/gold Sweet 16 Cake

The party will be a celebrity look alike party. She is really into fashion. Very pretty girl. I would like to do something maybe like a purse, shoe but have no clue where to begin. The only thing I am certain of is that I would like to use gold pearl dragees because I think that they are so pretty. Other than that I am at a loss.
Wow Cande, I could picture this cake as I was reading your reply. Thank you to all of you for your ideas. I was thinking that of blue rounds with gold stars (Doug's idea) of different sizes. I just ordered the sugarveil icing machine so I could have the stars kind of going from the size of the tiers to the top of the same tier if that makes any sense. I don't know, I am kind of processing everything and will eventually come up with a drawing. I may try and do a gold designer mini-purse as the topper with a gold crystal handle.
Sounds like a really neat cake. I did a 3 tiered cake for my daughter's b-day. I used a 12 and 9 inch stacked rounds. I then used a 6 inch round cut in half to make the purse on top. It is the glamour girl cake in my photos. I also used gumpaste stars. You could change up the colors and do something similar. This might give you some ideas though. Good luck and post a picture! 
Thanks again, Traci I saw your cake and it is so cute. My daughter would love it. i think I might try and make one as topper with gold handle. Since she is 16 I think she likes "bling"!!! I also like the idea of the box with the gold ring. God I guess I just better start sketching and see what looks best.
For a celeb look alike party how about a dark blue stacked cake with what looks like movie film unrolled sort of as a drape and maybe some edible images of celebs? I saw a cake of someones just tonight with such film on it..i think maybe ellepal or miz antonia..not sure?
edited to add...oops! was our own talented boween...on her chicken little cake ..it has the cutest film on it!
How about blue stacked rounds with dragees floating down the sides with yellow/gold stars shooting out the top (on wires/spaghetti/whatever) with a purse or shoe/fashion pieces on top?
That sounds so pretty.
