Spork Fashion

“I would describe my style as ‘lazy dancer,’” actress Shannyn Sossamon admits to me on the set of her new TV show, Moonlight. This makes sense, as she is a trained dancer. But she doesn’t run around in shiny leotards and severe buns. “I need to be comfortable,” she says. “I’m a sucker for oversized sweatshirts, legwarmers, and dresses over jeans.”

Today she fits her own description in dark, skinny jeans, gold flip-flops, and a dress by Fremont. “I was given this at a photo shoot,” Shannyn says. “I like it because it is simple, but the ruffles give it a bit of drama.” “That dress is from our Fall 2006 collection,” says Jessica Loria, one-third of Fremont Apparel. “It stems from a very equestrian themed collection that had lots of little mini dresses with tomboy accents.”

“It is so great to see someone like Shannyn wearing [our dress],” enthuses Jessica, “because she is how we would pinpoint the ideal Fremont girl. Someone who is smart, independent and talented but with a great sense of style.”

Shannyn believes in a very simple, natural skin and makeup routine to maintain her creamy complexion. “I never wear foundation outside of set,” she says adamantly. “For my skin, I use Epicurean on the high-end, or Cetaphil on the low-end.” Toner is simple witch hazel and rose water. Any favorite cosmetics? “I keep it simple. I really like Clinique’s eyeliners, and I will add a little glitter to make it fancy.” For lips, she favors Hemp Organics lipstick. “I have it in like eight different colors,” Shannyn laughs.
