Furry Winter Boots - Uggs And Beyond!

The ubiquitous Ugg Boots that Oprah made famous a few years ago may have seen their best days. Still, there are times when the weather gets chilly, and you just feel like being comfy, and it seems like there's no better solution than your favorite worn-in jeans tucked into some beat-up shearling boots. Or maybe you're into that whole mini-skirt with Uggs thing, though I never really got that. In any case, there are now so many variations on the classic for you to choose from, whether they're flats or wedges, suede or quilted flannel, real or faux, tall or short, etc. Fur boots can even be dressy - as evidenced by these black Vanessa Bruno booties. So whether you're still rocking the basic shearling style or looking for a new interpretation, check out the SLIDESHOW for some cozy winter boots!

Booties, Shooties, and Ankle Boots Galore!

As much as I hate to subscribe to huge trends, I've succumbed to this one...my booty wants a pair of booties! You wouldn't think they'd be universally flattering, but now there's such a variety of styles out there that you're bound to find a pair out there that make your gams look good. They're just too irresistibly cute when paired opaque tights or skinny jeans. Whatever you may call them - booties, ankle boots, shooties (shoes x booties), there's so many out there to pick from - from suede to belted, cut out to peep toe, studded to ruched. That's why I need your help to pick a pair out, or, you can just take a look at my slideshow for your own shopping entertainment. Since I'm a shorty, of course they all have heels, that's just the way I roll.

Hive Q&A: Latest Project Runway Bootee Says He Owned The Runway, But Not The Outfit

As if being one of the five remaining designers wasn't enough pressure in itself, this week's Project Runway challenge had the final contenders stepping into a dual role- they would each be designing a look inspired by a musical genre. Their client? A fellow contestant. Time flew by as they struggled to play designer and model all at once, and the pressure manifested itself in all sorts of ways- Leanne embraced her hip-hop persona with a hilarious rap, Korto started feeling the country twang, and Kenley, despite being outfitted in a getup that was purely pop, had an attitude that was quite the opposite. When it was time for Heidi, Michael, Nina, and guest judge LL Cool J to weigh in, it seemed as if many missed the mark- some held back in their designs for fear of going over the top, while others decided going all out was what it would take to win. Kenley's frustrations flared, and Kors' comments were some for the record books- specifically towards Leanne's design for Korto's country persona ("It looks too much like a woman going out for ribs") and towards Suede's look for Jerell ("It looks like rock n' roll going to the grocery store"). In the end, the win went to Korto, whose punk look for Suede was the perfect balance of over the top and believable, and one unlucky designer saw that the outfit he created, while well put together, just wasn't enough. Read on for my exclusive interview to find out who it was.

Hive Q&A: Latest Project Runway Bootee Says Mama Doesn't Always Know Best

Tensions ran high during last night's "Project Runway" challenge as the designers were faced with creating an outfit for a recent college grad, with one caveat- the young grads' mothers would be present throughout the design process. Juggling the requests of the grads with the opinions of their moms all while staying within the lines of the challenge proved difficult for some, and with no immunity for the remaining six designers, there was no choice but to impress. Extra pressure came in the form of TRESemme stylist Jeanie Syfu's announcement that the winning look would be featured in Elle magazine, along with the appearance of guest judge Cynthia Rowley. With two days to work, $100 to spend, and plenty of opinions to uphold, the designers had their work cut out for them, but inspiration was not quite so plentiful. In the end, it was pretty clear that one of two would be auf'd. Read on for my exclusive interview and find out who it was!

Hive 5: Shorties Unite Behind Nude Pumps!

How would you like to be taller? Well there's a bit of fashion magic that creates the illusion of added height - nude heels! They work by elongating the leg. A heel in any other tone will create contrast cutting the leg line at the ankle. The nude color actually works to extend the leg. And since the color is neutral and blends in, the heels go with everything. This versatility makes nude heels a wonderful investment. For a funky vibe check out Chloe's thick heeled pump with a collared edge and bonus hidden platform, invest in a pair of Christian Louboutin heels in patent leather, or opt keep your look classic with Kate Spade's renditions in suede and ostrich embossed leather. More styles and details are in the SLIDESHOW - so get clicking!
