  2. Leave it to Vogue to come up with ridiculous styling for dolls.

    I love the look of the last doll. Mostly I want her dress and jewelry.

    In regular human size of course.

  7. Um, good for Vogue for embracing ethnic diversity, but - really - Barbie? Talk about unattainable body image.

  8. My first Barbie was black. I picked her out when I was five, or maybe six. But her name was CHRISTIE, just so you know.
