The U.S. secretary of state appears to have finally ditched her signature headbands and prom-worthy dresses in favor of a more sophisticated look. 


Sporting a poufier new 'do , Hillary has been playing with whimsical patterns and textures, taking fashion risks (need we remind you of the embroidered flowery coat she wore in Afghanistan?), and jazzing up her classic skirt suit with a flash of gold jewelry at the March 14 Women in the World Summit.

"Many of these camps are designed to get kids in shape in a six-to 10-week period, but they are short-term fixes, just like diets."
