"Welcome to Necessary Objects for <B>The O.C.</B>, b*tch!"

I would have thought that, given the designer duds worn on The O.C. by everyone's favorite residents of Orange County, the collection produced by Necessary Objects would have been more, I dunno, wearable and, well, attractive. Who looks good in sequin-trimmed teal polyester?

Perhaps I'm expecting too much of a show that shows no compunction about putting teenagers in Chanel ready-to-wear for school. Could you, gentle readers, believe that Summer or Marissa would ever be caught in something as mundane as a men's wear halter vest or cuffed gaucho pants. I know we can't all have Mischa Barton's spindly legs or Rachel Bilson's magnificent rack, but I think we as consumers deserve better than the pictured sequin trim tube top.

Of course, please remember that we cannot always rely upon Marissa Cooper to be a paragon of teen fashion: check out the "O.C." page brought to you by the lovely ladies of GoFugYourself.com.

I can't imagine what a men's collection would look like -- what the hell do you wear with a Yarmuclaus, anyway?
