Fab Gift Guide: Wedding Gifts for The Groomsmen

This one's for the guys!

This one's for the guys! Thinking of a present to get you most likely stresses your man out to the max, so lend him a helping hand by providing him with some groovy groomsmen gifts within his budget. The challenge is to find something slightly sentimental without it being lame. Think masculine, innovative and pragmatic. Here are a few ideas I think your groom will really dig. To see the rest of our wedding related gift guides click here.

Under $50

Lancome Hypnôse Homme Cologne for Men, ($44 for a 1.7 oz bottle), is an amber-based lavender cologne that smells sexy, fresh and mysterious! It is made from almond, mint, amber, cardamom, lavender, citrus fruits, bergamot musk and patchouli.

I know what you are thinking: maybe it's a little femme. But I'll put it this way, Clive Owen is the new face of Lancome Men, so how girly could giving another guy cologne really be? That guy is all man! It will be available in May wherever Lancome is sold.

Fab Finding Follow Up: The Rehearsal Dinner

Rehearsal dinners are a lovely part of the wedding process.

Rehearsal dinners are a lovely part of the wedding process. This is a casual affair of friends and fams eating, drinking and reminiscing about the budding couple. Really, you can wear whatever you'd like, but of course you want to look nice. And nothing too extravagant, leave that to the big day. Also be sure to brush up on your rehearsal dinner etiquette.

I started you off with this Miu Miu crystal embellished purse, $550, and asked you all to go Fab Finding for a pretty rehearsal dinner outfit. I had one request: to find an outfit in a color other than black! How about some color for the bride? To see all the rehearsal dinner fab finds click here. Let's take a lookie!

Look #1, found by Spun Sugar is bold and beautiful with this Nina Ricci Satin shift dress.

Voted "The Revelation" by Us Weekly, Ali Larter is looking straight up sexy in this slim copper mini dress with a plunging neckline.

Voted "The Revelation" by Us Weekly, Ali Larter is looking straight up sexy in this slim copper mini dress with a plunging neckline. I am also loving her peep toe Christian Louboutin heels and her just perfectly sun kissed complexion. The hair is a little severe, but oh how it shows off those fabulous earrings! What do you think?

Us' Hot Hollywood Style Winners: Jamie-Lynn Sigler

I am really digging Jamie-Lynn's dark angel look: the dark hair, navy dress, black shoes.

I am really digging Jamie-Lynn's dark angel look: the dark hair, navy dress, black shoes. Normally, I would think black & blue don't work, but the low cut V-neck gives her a sexy edge. I also love how the dress is made of two different textures. And the babydoll cut is very age appropriate!

Us' Hot Hollywood 2007 Style Winners: Ciara

This PYT looks fabulous in her close up but this white bondage-inspired dress makes her look very boxy.

This PYT looks fabulous in her close up but this white bondage-inspired dress makes her look very boxy. Ciara, dubbed "The Ingenue" by Us Weekly, has a grace about her but this look isn't her best. The dress itself I am undecided about...what do you think?

Fab Body Guide: Spring Dresses For All Bods

In this week's Life & Style they offer a really helpful breakdown on how to wear this season's hottest item: the dress.

In this week's Life & Style they offer a really helpful breakdown on how to wear this season's hottest item: the dress. They show several examples of dress styles to lift busts, hide hips, accentuate curves and tame tummies. With all the voluminous styles of late, I realize those with un-model-like bods are struggling to pull off these looks. I think we all can learn from this breakdown and I have one to suggest too!

Us' Hot Hollywood Style Winners: Carmen Electra

Here's Carmen Electra in a cute LBD.

Here's Carmen Electra in a cute LBD. I adore the super-shortness of this ruffly frock - her stems are definitely flaunt-worthy! But I think it's a tad too youthful for her, especially since she was voted by US Magazine as "The Pinup Girl Next Door." I envision her in a dress with less ruffles and more sex appeal; ones to match those killer stilettos! What do you think?

Us' Hot Hollywood Style Winners: Rose McGowan

Dubbed as "The Edgy Princess" by Us Weekly, Rose McGowan is looking fierce in this what I believe to be Dolce & Gabbana cocktail dress.

Dubbed as "The Edgy Princess" by Us Weekly, Rose McGowan is looking fierce in this what I believe to be Dolce & Gabbana cocktail dress. She always works the sexy ways of Dolce with her milky skin and foxy attitude. The fit is perf but the colors are a bit off with this dress - she's camouflaged with the background! What do you think?
