Trend Alert: Fur Vests

FabSugar — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 05:50:22 PST

Vests continue to serve as favorite layering tools. And it's time to get furry. Leather, denim, and studded vests are too weak right now - it's high time fashion meets function. I recently scored a cheap blond fur vest from American Eagle Outfitters, it even has a cute plaid lining. I've pretty much been throwing it over everything, and I'm trying to find a chichi enough event to wear it with a long gown a la Elizabeth Hurley. But Nicole Richie models it for everyday, if you can stop staring at her mammoth white Balenciaga and focus on her foxy furry.

Trend Alert: Luscious Leather Trench

The unstoppable Victoria Beckham is at it again in yet another smokin' hot ensemble. Not only is she donning an on-trend Winter wide brim, peep her luscious leather trench. It's the crème de la crème of outerwear. She'll have no problem crushing the bone-chilling temperatures and gusty winds in this leather baby. Yes, such buttery soft goodness is pricey, but think of it as a lifetime investment. You know I will. Side note: how sexy is it to don a mini underneath it all?

Trend Alert: Denim Leggings

Leggings lovers unite. I must admit, I was unsure about denim leggings until I tried on a pair. Let's just say I was very pleasantly surprised. Not only do they look like skinny jeans, they're much more comfortable. I like wearing my Charley 5.0 leggings with a top and blazer for a more polished look, and with flip-flops and a tee when I'm feeling like a surfita. You might be resistant, but don't knock it until you try it . . .

Members Only Launches Makeup Bag Collection

I have a soft spot for Members Only. Back in the day, I rocked the Midwest in my khaki Members Only jacket. In recent times, my nostalgic nature got the best of me, and I strolled on over to eBay to purchase a larger version of the jacket to fit my adult body. I still love it, and wear it often. And now, the iconic brand, who recently launched a denim collection is now coming out with a line of brightly colored accessories, including some fun beauty bags ($28). The bags, just out now, include Turquoise, Fuchsia, Black Mock Crocodile, Metallic Snake, and Leopard Patent. There's no denying the '80s throwback style. Just add Journey and you're all set.

On Our Radar: Members Only Launches Denim Collection

I remember wearing my Members Only nylon jacket in high school thinking I was the coolest kid in town. Well, times have changed, and so has Members Only. Come Spring, the company will be offering up some cool denim. The collection, retailing at $140 for a pair, will focus on skinny-leg cuts and shorts made of Japanese denim. With eight styles in tow, look forward to seeing a variety of embellishments and colors. Interested? The line will be available at high-end specialty stores such as Nordstrom and Intermix. I'm digging those ripped jeans seen left. Holey jean lovers unite!

Trend Alert: Colored Leather Jackets

FabSugar — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 06:00:22 PST

90210 cutie Jessica Stroup is looking subtly tough in her baby blue leather jacket. Not to mention this jacket makes her baby blues pop. Gorgeous. You've probably already snatched up a black leather jacket, and if you're craving more buttery leather, shake things up with a colored leather jacket. I recommend sticking to jewel tones - purple, blue, burgundy - or neutrals. Let's face it: when it comes to leather, happy colors like orange and yellow just don't fly.

Flashback: Members Only Jacket Ad With Anthony Geary

GiggleSugar — Mon, 25 Jun 2007 03:00:00 PDT

"When you put it on...something happens." Yeah, you become a skinny white dude with permed hair and a porn stache--without the hipster irony. Anthony Geary put his "General Hospital" acting to good use in this commercial from 1982. I really love when he and his be-fro'd lady friend both go off into the sunset in tuxedo shirts, bow ties and, of course, black Members Only jackets. Classy.

What to Expect When You're Expecting Set Visit: Elizabeth Banks on Her Fake Bump and Personal Baby Joy

Becky Kirsch — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 16:05:11 PST

Some of the biggest names in Hollywood will share the big screen in the upcoming comedy What to Expect When You're Expecting, which follows different mothers-to-be as they prepare for the arrivals of their bundles of joy. Cameron Diaz, Brooklyn Decker, Anna Kendrick, and Elizabeth Banks are among the famous ladies who strapped on fake baby bumps to portray different kinds of pregnant women, and Banks's character, Wendy, doesn't exactly have an easy time of it.

I visited the Atlanta set of the film last year, where Banks was shooting a climactic scene in which her character addresses all the woes of pregnancy - in an auditorium with a rather large audience. The hilarious meltdown, which you can see in the opening of the trailer for What to Expect When You're Expecting, includes harsh truths like "I'm calling it: pregnancy sucks." It was great fun to see Banks film the passionate speech again and again, especially since the funny lady mixed up her one-liners from one take to another. What was even more interesting was seeing all of the extras who played the audience members, since the group of women was a mix of actual pregnant women and women rocking fake baby bumps.

I chatted with Banks about her own experience filming the movie, and she revealed that she actually felt like she was in her own little movie, since she doesn't have much screen time with her costars. Banks was refreshingly honest about not having any parenting tips and also admitted that though welcoming her son, Felix, has brought her a great deal of joy, it hasn't changed her stance on how she feels about kids in general. Here's more of what Banks had to say about pregnancy and motherhood:

What inspired you to take this role?
Elizabeth Banks: I cried when I read the script. It has a really great ending: at the end of the movie, everybody has a baby! It really is just a very relatable story for everyone: anybody who is a parent, has considered being a parent, has a baby, whatever. It's just very universal, what happens in the film. We really explore so many great storylines and different paths to getting a child. I had a unique path to getting my son, so I understand how everybody's path to their child is different.

How does it feel to wear the bump?
EB: It's sweaty! [Laughs] I think it's probably a decent approximation; it weighs a good 10 lbs. The boobs weigh about 6 lbs. They are really unbelievable. It's fun. It definitely makes you sit and walk in a totally different way. As an actor, it's a great prop.

How did you change when you became a mom?
EB: I get drunk much faster and easier, and it's a big problem, so I can't go out very much. I find that I underestimated the amount of joy. I'm really learning about my capacity for joy through my son.

Glee-ful Highlights From Episode "The Spanish Teacher"

Shannon Vestal — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 09:01:05 PST

Glee goes Latin this week when guest star Ricky Martin stops by to shake it and teach Mr. Schue a thing about Spanish (which, despite being a Spanish teacher, he does not know). A couple more people find out about Finn and Rachel's engagement, though Mercedes and Sam are still far more unclear about their relationship. Sue also announces a highly frightening desire to be a mother while clawing at the chance to be a tenured teacher.

There are some fun numbers this week, but they couldn't distract from the fact that this episode is all over the place. A couple of the subplots are just plain ridiculous, but it's not totally without its highlights, so let's go over them after the jump.
