I'm back from the whirlwind that was the Victoria's Secret fashion show and had to share one of the highlights from the pink carpet: an interview with girl about town and Beverly Hills sweetheart, Lauren Conrad from The Hills. You may remember she and I are like this (finger cross) as we met not too long ago at LA Fashion Week. This time we chatted about lingerie, fashion, and what she wants for Christmas.

P.S. That is LC's pal Lo, also from The Hills in the background.

Fab Gift Guide: All the Young Dudes

I know you're picturing that famous scene in Clueless when the song "All the Young Dudes" comes on and we see a group of sloppy dudes in slow motion walking in their baggy pants, mismatched separates, and backwards baseball caps.

I know you're picturing that famous scene in Clueless when the song "All the Young Dudes" comes on and we see a group of sloppy dudes in slow motion walking in their baggy pants, mismatched separates, and backwards baseball caps. That's the look I was going for here — just Fabified. Young dudes will wear what they will, but you can always try to point them in the right direction. Here are some pointers.

Glitterati: Lara Bohinc

You might say Lara Bohinc has earned herself some serious bragging rights.

You might say Lara Bohinc has earned herself some serious bragging rights. She's collaborated on jewelry for both Gucci and Lanvin, and she currently works as a design consultant for Cartier.

It all started ten years ago, when the Slovenian-born designer started her eponymous line straight out of school. Since then, her chunky jewelry, knot motifs, and architectural metalworking has gathered a client base that reads like a VIP list: Madonna, Kate Moss, SJP, Cameron Diaz, Christina Aguilera, and Gwen Stefani. Her most recent development is a collection of fine jewelry, which starting last month is being sold exclusively at Harrods in London.

Lara Bohinc is available at Net-a-Porter and runs $370-$965.

12th Annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show

Christmas came early at the Twelfth Annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in Los Angeles.

Christmas came early at the Twelfth Annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in Los Angeles. Not only did it come early, it came in full-on sexy mode with supermodels Heidi Klum, Karolina Kurkova, Alessandra Ambrosio, Angela Lindvall, Marisa Miller, Jessica Stam, and more.

As the half-naked beauties parlayed past me, I couldn't help but be mesmerized by their gorgeous bods and dramatic lingerie. Though all the pieces were sexy and festive, two definitely stood out. Heidi's metallic snowflake getup had some major dazzle. She glowed as she strutted down the shimmery runway in her silver bustier and oversize snowflake prop.

Another knockout was Karolina Kurkova's larger-than-life angel number. Though the lingerie itself wasn't anything special, the towering feathered wings were truly amazing. The extra long train and mini tutu underwear were also a real treat.

Some pieces were very holiday inspired, some were not, but the common theme was the intricateness and seductiveness of the lingerie. And of course, the over-the-top production. Till next year...

Celebrity Style

Celebrity Style: LeAnn Rimes

What a coincidence! I was just saying how much I love blondes in green and another blonde, LeAnn Rimes, showed up to an event at the Children's Museum of Manhattan in a green dress by Erotokritos.

What a coincidence! I was just saying how much I love blondes in green and another blonde, LeAnn Rimes, showed up to an event at the Children's Museum of Manhattan in a green dress by Erotokritos. The jeweled neckline and pleat detailing make the dress a standout. I love her fusion of a very feminine dress with masculine patent lace up pumps. Oh, and Paris, this is how opaque tights are done.
