Spanx Debuts Its Spring Swimwear Line. No Gym Required.

Eileen Conlan — Wed, 26 Jan 2011 13:00:34 +0000

In our book, Spanx swimwear was the best thing to come out of 2010. Now they’ve unveiled their newest line of swimwear, and it’s even better than the last. Not only do a ton of the styles remind me of chic cocktail dresses….they all have built-in technology to flatten your tummy, offer full seat coverage, and are made of super comfy jersey. Really, all you can ask for in a swimsuit. Stop sucking it in and get one–these sell out fast!

Top 10 Of 2010: Ten Trends We Couldn’t Live Without

Justine Ingersoll Schwartz — Thu, 30 Dec 2010 13:00:19 +0000

2010 was the year of comfort. The choice jeans were secretly leggings, the outerwear was fuzzy fur and the clog – the Milk Maid shoe of choice – ruled. Behold 10 trends we couldn’t have lived without this year – and the celebrities who loved them most:

1. Faux Fur Vests

Thanks to Rachel Zoe, faux fur vests had the best year ever. Kim Kardashian and Olivia Palermo are also fans.

2. Jeggings:

We love them. Conan loves them. What’s not to love about jeans that are secretly leggings? Cameron Diaz even wore them on the red carpet.

3. Clogs:

First Alexa Chung, and then the world. The unlikely clog trend swept the nation – one shoe at a time.

4. SPANX Swimwear

Swimwear. With. SPANX. Can I get an “Amen”?

5. Leopard:

2010 meant a return to your animal instincts. Whitney Port and Rachel Bilson were among the trends biggest supporters. Leopard, cheetah, tigers – oh my!

6. Military Jackets:

We salute this military-inspired trend, which was our favorite jacket of early fall. (As seen on AnnaLynne McCord, Reese Witherspoon, and more) .

7. Lace-Up Booties:

Lace-up booties – from wedges to flats and many more – were the biggest shoe trend of fall 2010.

8. Mulberry:

Whether you can afford the real thing, or the Mulberry for Target diffusion line, this was the “It” bag of 2010. You can thank Alexa Chung for this one, too.

9. Skinny Cargo Pants

A celebrity favorite (beloved by Rihanna, Kim Kardashians and more), these J Brand Houlihan Skinny Cargo Pants were the hottest pant style of the year.

10. Bib Necklaces

Bib necklaces and tribal necklaces ruled this year. Just ask Olivia Palermo.

7 Passive Aggressive Gifts For All Of Your Best Frenemies

jillweiskopf — Fri, 10 Dec 2010 20:00:24 +0000

Don’t know what to get that special person in your life– you know, the one who you love to (not-so) secretly hate? Maybe she undermines you, she’s always the Debbie Downer who rains on your parade, or she is just the most annoying person in your life. If you still have to give her a gift, fear not. Here are some passive-aggressive finds to say how you really feel–without really saying it:

For the spotlight-loving frenemy who’s always shoving you out of photos, send over these Crest Whitestrips Pro Effects($29.99), which will give her a whiter smile in seven days. Say cheese!

Let your braless co-worker frenemy know those A cups are not helping her A-game with this Calvin Klein Level 3 Seductive Bra ($29.99 – $44). She’ll thank you later.

The frenemy who always laments she’s too skinny to fit into adult sizes needs a little meat on her bones. Gift her with a pack of Omaha Steaks ($64.00, from $99.99).

For the frenemy who’s always whining about not having time to go to the gym, try these Reebok EasyTone Get Outside II Sneakers ($81.27, down from $109.99) to help tone up those legs of hers. The hint is all in the name.

For the man-stealing frenemy, who’s been single for, hmm, a while now, give her a little boost with this 3-month membership ($59.95) so she’ll stop making passes at your boyfriend.

For the frenemy who’s always droning on about how she can’t lose weight, give a Weight Watchers Monthly Pass ($39.95), which includes free registration, unlimited monthly meetings, and e-tools to help keep her on track so you don’t have to hear about it anymore. After all, if Jennifer Hudson can do it, anyone can. Isn’t that what the commercials say?

For the frenemy who brags about getting carded at the bars, get this Bliss At-Home Anti-Aging Facial Set ($94, $159 value), which include Bliss’s Youth As We Know It moisturizer, eye cream, and cleanser. Hey, at least you’re helping her fight those lines effectively.
