Trend Alert: Wrapped in Gray
I've died and gone to gray heaven. My everyday neutral has been sexified by model Selita Ebanks, designer Haider Ackermann, and actress Paula Patton. They are all wrapped in gray, and I'm wrapped in envy.
Fab's 15 Fall Faves From Shopbop
Every time I peruse Shopbop, I end up with a cart-full of amazing items. Can I afford them all? By no means, but that doesn't stop me from obsessing.
Trend Alert: Sassy Sweats
I feel like it was only yesterday I was frustrated with celebrities who wore sweats while carrying their designer handbags — sorry, so not Fab. Luckily, those days are pretty much over, but with sassy sweats on the rise, I may have to accept the trend. Don't get me wrong, I'm all about some sassiness when walking Annabelle around the 'hood or going on a hike, but there's a time and a place.
Dress Me Up: Bundle of Cool
Among the things I love about Fall is that you can dress comfortably without being slobby. Roomy sweaters are the way to go — they provide warmth, hide the effects of comfort food, and make you a feel like a bundle of cool. Shopbop has a collection of sweaters that fit the bill.Trend Alert: Poncho Power
Anyone who has ever worn a poncho can attest to the fact that they are a cumbersome way to keep warm. I still haven't worn the one I purchased from Peru three years ago. Oops.
Do You Ever Go Commando?

Do You Ever Go Commando?
Yes — there's nothing quite so liberating.
I enjoy the occasional cool breeze.
Simply Fab: Nundies
The C-String invisible underwear got you all talking, but I somehow doubt it got you buying.
We all hate VPLs, but we're not all willing to sacrifice comfort to avoid them. Nundies ($15 for a pack of five) provides a happy medium between comfort and utility.
New York Fashion Week, Fall 2008: VPL & Exclusive Designer Interview!
I've talked about VPLs numerous times on Fab but haven't mentioned VPL as much. Allow me to clarify. VPL by Victoria Bartlett does play on visible panty lines, but it's seen as a good thing in her world.
Simply Fab: Maidenform Firm Control Thong
Women often want to hide their tummy but what they don't want are ugly VPLs. Maidenform's Firm Control Thong ($18) is a plausible solution because it features the waistband needed to flatten the stomach, plus it's a thong. The leg openings ensure that you can move freely and the pillow case crotch (tee hee) provides soft comfort.
New York Fashion Week Spring 2008, VPL: Love It or Hate It?
In honor of some of the polarizing looks showing at New York Fashion Week, I thought we would do a few fashion week editions of Love It or Hate It!
Take this Spring VPL ensemble, with its mustard, gray, and white color palette. It reminds me of an avant-garde ballet outfit, with its leotard-looking layered top and sheer lampshade-inspired skirt.
