Too much plastic and filler has made Dashton look like Madame Tussauds newest creation. Fembot's head is all covered up because if she was exposed to light, her head might melt-

Air-brushed tank with mystical Hebrew saying.....$350

Black stocking cap to hide frazzled gray roots.....$125

Oversized shades to shield tender post-surgery eyes.....$415

Trying to get jacked up (and keep up) by refueling with a Red Bull at the NBA All Star Game.....Priceless

Besides Jackie O., we dare you to name one First Lady with style. Nancy Reagan in all that bias-cut Scaasi, no way! Babs Bush? Boxy blue suits and pearls...not cutting the mustard. We're trying to be PC when we say that first ladies are not fashionistas. But lo and behold, Jr. Senator and former First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton turned down the dowd and hooked up with uber-hipster Marc Jacobs to create the must have item for spring, the "Hillary Graphic Tee". The shirt comes in a rainbow of colors and is obviously an homage to his highness of hip, Andy Warhol. The shirt is manufactured by the PC American Apparel and is being marketed "exclusively for the Senator and her friends!" Hillary's clique just got a whole lot bigger.

Marc + Hillary
