  Shop Fall's Hottest Trend And Dare To Bare With Something Sheer!

  Sheer clothing always evokes a little bit of the '80s and also seems futuristic at the same time. Clothing with sheer insets and panels is usually considered to be a nighttime kind of outfit, but brands and designers like Alexander Wang and Free People have made sheer clothing a great daytime option too! From tops to even denim, it's easy to find this daring trend. For a subtle sheer look, check out the jersey sheath dress by Maggy London which has small sheer insets around the waistline. If you're feeling a little bolder try the boa burnout sweater by 3.1 Phillip Lim (with a nude bandeau bra underneath). Sheer clothing is definitely very sexy so don't overdo it with a head to toe sheer look. Click on over to my slideshow to see how you can incorporate the sheer trend into your wardrobe!

  Sheer Story: Dresses That Bare Just Enough!

  I popped over to the Karen Millen boutique last week to check out some dresses and fell in love with this Karen Millen ruched silk dress ($299). This fall, it's about going bare without having to really go bare -- find a dress with a sheer top or sleeves to give just a hint of what's under. For more slightly sheer looks, try Elizabeth and James' gauze t-shirt dress- it's a sophisticated spin on a casual classic. Alice + Olivia's embellished dress is just that, with sheer panels, lace, and rhinestones adding to the mix. Click over to Coquette for more sheer dresses and other fashion and shopping finds.

  Vintage Fashionistas Keep It Under Control with Bandage Dresses

  

  Mary Kincaid on Jun 12, 2009 8:19 AM PDT
  

  Herve Leger believed that there were two types of fashion consumers: the fashion victims, who adopted the looks of designers without thinking, and the women who refused to be feminine clothes hangers. He, of course, designed for the latter. His most famous design was the bandage dress, and it seems like every young celebrity (and a few older ones as well) are sporting these unforgiving frocks on red carpets everywhere. And while you might not be able to afford a Leger original, there are plenty of vintage knock-offs to satisfy you fashion itch. Of course, these body-huggers should come with a warning label that advises against wearing unless all your bumps and bulges are under control. But for those of you with the bods to pull 'em off, you can choose from this sexy roundup of vintage dresses. Just click the slideshow to see the selection.

  Wedding What-To-Wear-Underneaths!

  

  Amber Fijolek on Jun 3, 2009 10:22 AM PDT
  

  Now, while it's not something all the guests will see, you should put some thought into what you're wearing underneath your beautiful gown on your wedding day. For the big day, it's all about comfort, control, and some sass, because your after-reception will be the inception of some intimate Mister and Misses time. Aside from the assortment of playful pieces of string and lace that you'll need to stop your new hubby's heart in its tracks for the entirety of your honeymoon, an "under ensemble" for the outfit in which you've been planning to take the plunge is essential for chapel day. Consider things with a corset to tauten up your marriage mirage as well as things with shelf to tease, as your man will probably be ripping you out of the gear you've spent months arranging. Have a secure, smooth and stimulating big day with tips from this undergarment-slideshow!

  Just picture it: the door swings open for you to walk your way down the aisle, but you've stunned every straight man in the chapel simply with the sight of your stunning beauty. Let a sheer gown be the reason! Your wedding day is your day to shine and show off. While a conservative gown may fit your great-grandmother's ideal wedding look, your day should be reflected by something that's a little more you-- so, you should definitely let a little more of you show! The blissful bride's body need not be sheathed by a thick cloak of fabrics. The carefully placed addition of a bit of sheer fabric on your dream dress is totally in right now. Choose from these picks that all grant the freedom to flaunt but still carry enough class not to provoke protest among bitter-ended (and really, just jealous) relatives! Start your marriage off right-- get a gown that gets more of you noticed, and dare to bare!

  Cold Feet? Try A Chilly Weather Wedding Wrap!

  

  Amber Fijolek on Mar 18, 2009 1:24 PM PDT
  

  The last thing you'll want on your wedding day is to be cold, so if you're tying the knot in fall, winter or spring, you may want a nice, warm compliment to your gown. It's true that you'll want to flaunt your lavishly conditioned skin and hot bod that you've been working on during your pre-nuptial planning, so your gown may be missing a few pieces here and there -- probably in vulnerable areas such as the neck, back and shoulders. Depending on how harsh your location will be, someone's thought of something to make the temperature of your big day an afterthought. In lace or feather, there's a shrug, wrap or jacket for any weather. See the slideshow for some of our favorite picks!
