Fab Finding Follow Up: A Laid-Back Baby Shower

One of your good friends is about to have a lil version of herself and to celebrate you're throwing her a baby shower.

One of your good friends is about to have a lil version of herself and to celebrate you're throwing her a baby shower. It's a casual affair, just the lady of honor and a few of her closest gal pals, so your outfit should be nothing over-the-top. And no Jimmy Choos: we wouldn't want what happened to Carrie Bradshaw to happen to you!

I started you off with this J Brand 'Pallatzo' Denim Pants ($218) because it's a great denim wash and simply, comfy chic. To see all the baby shower Fab Finds, go here.

Let's see what you all came up with!

Oh! Now, you can build outfits by creating a list of clothing items. We have everything you need to build outfits with, and you can use your Fab Find bookmarks, too. This is an even better way to put together an entire outfit when you are completing your Fab Finding missions.

Look #1, created by daddio49, is equal parts feminine and urban. The DVF top is a pretty cut and color, and I'm obsessed with skinny belts.

Simply Fab: Bodas Travel Bags

Everyone loves to travel.

Everyone loves to travel. What everyone doesn't love is packing for the trip. Part of the problem for me is that I can never find enough bags to put my shoes and dirty clothes in. Bodas Travel Bags ($25 each) are here to save the day.

Each bag serves a different purpose. There's a Shoe Travel Bag; an Underwear Travel Bag so that your panties stay fresh and clean; a Bikini Travel Bag for your dry and wet swimsuits; and a Laundry Bag. For US customers, Barneys also carries Boda Travel Bags. Safe travels!

Party On Party Dresses: One(derful) Shoulders

One-shoulder dresses had a strong presence earlier in the year at the Oscars and they're still wowing us today.

One-shoulder dresses had a strong presence earlier in the year at the Oscars and they're still wowing us today. Cate Blanchett, in Armani Privé stole the show, so why not do the same this New Year's?

One(derful) Shoulder dresses are great for ladies who have chiseled shoulders and want to show them off. If your problem areas are below the waist, opt for an asymmetrical frock to draw attention to your décolletage. I'd stay away from necklaces but would rock a gorgeous cocktail ring and retro open-toe pumps.

Was It Fair That Jack Used His Shorts as a Pattern on Project Runway Last Night?

It's only episode three, but things on Project Runway are starting to heat up both on and off the runway.

It's only episode three, but things on Project Runway are starting to heat up both on and off the runway. This week's challenge? Menswear for Today Show correspondent and former NY Giants running back Tiki Barber. Needless to say, the designers freaked! But menswear means male models — and I'm never one to argue with that. Elisa continued in the eccentric vein, refusing to touch her model even though he told her he wants to do ethno botany, a subject you'd think she'd be into. Christian's self-assurance continues to amuse, and Heidi Klum speaks of David Beckham with more than a little disdain.

For a full run-down of the "Fashion Giant" episode, be sure to check out what Buzz has to say. And don't forget to ask Nina Garcia your burning questions!

Gossip Girl Fashion Quiz: Episode 9 "Blair Waldorf Must Pie"

Gossip Girl really knows how to pack in the drama.

Gossip Girl really knows how to pack in the drama. Though Thanksgiving was last week, I didn't mind being taken back to the good times. And what good times they were — compared to the holidays of the peeps on our new favorite show. We got a double dose of Thanksgiving — with flashbacks to last year's Thanksgiving and Serena's old drunken ways. This year, and last year, there was scandal, fighting, and eating (including a Blair pie binge); but I guess the overall lesson is that times change. Here's to change!
