So I have completely outed myself as a member of the tacky Christmas sweater set. My kids don't feel the holiday cheer until they see Mom in a reindeer sweater. Do you have a tacky Christmas sweater that you love to wear? If so, share your story and pics.

Page Six reports Italian designer Miuccia Prada (of Prada and Miu Miu) was commissioned to design costumes for NY Metropolitan Opera's upcoming production of "Attila." But when the designer saw the curvy figures of the extras, she reportedly said she couldn't dress them and demanded models instead.

It's no secret that fashion designers prefer to design for the stick-thin figures of 6-foot models: they use the argument that clothes hang better on the mannequinlike figures. Whatever. I guess I would be more forgiving of these out-of-touch designers if they themselves looked like the scrawny models they design for. But has Miuccia Prada taken a look in the mirror lately? She's about as "real woman" as a you get. (Photo Credit: Vittorio Zunino Celotto/Getty Images)

It takes a blast of cold air to get me in the mood for sweater shopping, but once the temps drop I'm a diehard sweater fan. My favorites (of course) are yummy cashmere because they are so soft and warm. This year I'm on the lookout for longer tunic-type sweaters to wear with my leggings (the ultimate in cozy chic). I also love giving sweaters as gifts, because there are so many great styles to choose from and something for every woman's body and lifestyle. (Photo Credit: Pricegrabber.com)

From bimbo style icons (like Paris Hilton, pictured) to middle-aged women dressing like teenagers, the '00s were filled with fashion trends gone bad. I have to admit, I bought into some of these now-bad trends at first, especially "It bags" because I had sort of a Marc Jacobs obsession. The designer bag craze started out harmless enough; it was a way to spice up otherwise boring clothes and show your status all at the same time. Then it spun out of control with an influx of crazy-expensive must-have bags that were so pricey regular girls had to rent them instead of buy them. (Photo Credit: Cynthia Nellis)
