Spanx For Men!
04/09/10, 06:47:57 am, Categories: Frivolous Friday, Would You Wear It?  

Neiman Marcus is carrying Spanx for men! That's right, the secret weapon traditionally worn by women to keep things looking tight under sexy clothing is now extending to the men folk in the form of compression undershirts and tanks.

Spanx For Men

This line of Spanx for men was the subject of one of Neiman's Facebook updates this morning and it sparked quite the discussion! From people making manboob jokes to snarky comments like, "remember how men used to go to the gym," the chit-chat about Spanx for men is heated! Click here to see the whole conversation.

And if you're interested in checking out the Spanx line for men, click here.

Let me hear your thoughts in the comments section! What do you think? Are body shapers a long time coming for men? Or does this just confuse you? What would you do if the man in your life decided to go buy some Spanx?

I Need More Studs In My Life
08/28/09, 12:25:24 pm, Categories: Frivolous Friday  

It’s Frivolous Friday! Which means today we can ogle over some of our favorite frivolities. For some reason, I’ve been really into accessories with studded detailing lately. Maybe it’s because a friend of mine often wears a studded belt (that my friends and I refer to as the “spikey emo belt”). Or maybe it’s because one of my favorite wallets is patent leather with a line of studs around the top. Bottom line: studs are relevant right now in fashion. You just have to wear them tastefully.

I love this bag, by Tory Burch (surprise, surprise, I like something by Tory Burch…). The gold studs are glam and the shape of the satchel is traditional yet very city chic. I want this! Check it out by clicking here.

Patricia Field, who’s the designer of Carrie Bradshaw’s studded belt in the Sex and the City movie, does lots of studs and does them well. Not only do I love Carrie’s belt in the movie (especially paired with some of the contrasting feminine designs) I also love this one. Click here to see Patricia’s highly studded selection of goodies.

This extra-long tank (that’s being worn as a dress) from Express is making a splash on the fashion scene right now. Nikki Hilton was even seen sporting it recently. If you’re new to studs, this piece might be your perfect way to try them out. It’s got mass appeal. Click here to see more of the tank.

Remember, don’t wear all your studs at one time (you’ll put off that, “I’m so angry, nobody loves me,” vibe). Instead, view studs as a great way to add detailing and edge to an outfit. And I might have to have that black Tory Burch purse! That’s one studly piece of handbag.
