If your basics are starting to look a little worse for wear, check out Gap's new collection, Gap Pure, which just launched today in stores (and online last night). Not only is the line affordable - prices range from $24 for a tee to $68 for a sweater - but the quality is also spot-on, highlighting jersey, pima cotton, and cashmere. In fact, we spoke to the designer and was told that each piece goes through a rigorous pilling test. We love the slouchy-cum-cool fit, perfect for lounging around, or if you want to up your style profile, layering with leather skirts and skinny trousers.

20s, 30s, or 40s: Which Decade Is Best For Becoming a Mom?

Kate Stahl — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 13:03:28 PST

Just a couple of weeks after her 25th birthday, Kristin Cavallari announced she and fiancé Jay Cutler are expecting their first baby. Kristin joins fellow twenty-something soon-to-be mama Hilary Duff, who turned 24 last September. While both Kristin and Hilary reflect the national average age for women to become first time moms - it now stands at 25.1 years old - they certainly aren't the norm for celebs, many of whom wait until their 30s before they have a baby. Molly Sims is expecting a honeymoon baby at age 38 with hubby Scott Stuber. Jessica Simpson will welcome her firstborn at age 31, and Beyoncé became mom to Blue Ivy at 30. I had my daughter at 31 and I thought that was the perfect age - young enough to be able to cope with the lack of sleep in the beginning and, later, the high energy of a lil one, but old enough to not have any regrets about missing out on my carefree 20s. So what decade do you think is best for becoming a new mom? Weigh in below!

"I'm Trying to Avoid Sex With My Boyfriend"

Tres Community — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 03:05:45 PST

This week's confession comes from our anonymous Confession Booth group in the TrèsSugar Community. Weigh in with your advice below.

We've had so many sexual problems. I'm 24 and he's 29. We've been dating for close to four years now. He was my first sexual partner. We started having sex after about a year together, although it was very rare. We would sometimes have gaps of up to two months at a time. If I was getting laid once a month, it was a miracle enough - two was out of this world. We had lots of fights about that and he always claimed he was "paranoid" about getting me pregnant.

Earlier on in the relationship, he told me that this wasn't an issue with his long-distance ex, with whom he had been about a year. He told me they sometimes had sex twice a day. He also did many other hurtful things regarding her - i.e., it was very obvious he was not over her – and I suffered through the first 1.5 to 2 years of our relationship. Talk about a sex drive killer.

We Love Anna Dello Russo's Fashion Week Style - See All of Her Looks Thus Far

Marisa Tom — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 10:34:34 PST

There are few people who can pull off the good and the wildly fantastical looks we see come down the runway as well as Vogue Japan's editor-at-large Anna Dello Russo does. Her absolute love of fashion is apparent in every luxe fur coat, ornate dress, silky bomber jacket, leather pant, oversized fascinator, vintage necklace, and enviable pair of heels she wears - and therefore, we can't help but admire her effortlessly cool commitment to style. Now that the frenzied lineup of fashion weeks has kicked off, we've been treated to a great dose of ADR sightings, including a glam veiled look at Prada's 24 Hours Museum opening in Paris last night and a shimmery mix of fur and metallics at Alberta Ferretti's limited-edition presentation. Click through to see up-to-the-minute Anna Dello Russo moments as she traipses her way through Milan's Men's Fashion Week, Couture Fashion Week, and beyond.

Will You Still Use Amazon Mom Under Its New Terms?

Kate Stahl — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 11:12:20 PST

Amazon Mom launched shortly before I had my daughter, and every mom I knew told me I had to sign up! A whopping 30 percent off diapers and wipes made it a no-brainer, and I've been happily stocking up using the site's Subscribe and Save option ever since. So I was incredibly bummed when I got an email from Amazon a few days ago, detailing Amazon Mom's new terms of use, going into effect next week.

Starting Jan. 24, the maximum discount available on diapers and wipes subscriptions will be 20 percent, which isn't so bad, except that 15 of that 20 percent is only available to Amazon Mom members who are earning free shipping benefits because they signed up in the last three months, or because they have an active Amazon Prime membership (which comes with a $79 per year price tag). The site still has some good deals, but I'm not sure I'll take the time to go through them now that I can probably get my diapers and wipes cheaper somewhere else. And frankly, it annoys me when companies give new members incentives that they don't also offer to loyal customers. So what about you? Will you still be stocking up on Amazon Mom, or have the new terms turned you off? Weigh in below!

We are excited to share one of our fave stories from Shape here on FitSugar.

Rihanna is one hot singing sensation. Having recently been named the best-selling digital artist of all time - thanks to a whopping 47.5 million downloads of her hits - the sexy songstress is also a top contender for album of the year at this year’s Grammy Awards.

But not only does the Barbadian beauty know how to rock a stage, she also rocks a bikini, too! No stranger to showin’ off some skin, getting that taut and tight tummy definitely takes work.
