"I like dirty boys. Mechanics, construction workers, artists who get paint and clay everywhere," Tamara Feldman says. "They gotta have rough hands." An odd preference, perhaps, for someone who portrays a Manhattan socialite on not one but two shows: On Gossip Girl, Feldman plays Poppy, a soul too sweet for that teen-eat-teen urban jungle. And this season she returns to ABC's Dirty Sexy Money as Natalie, a manipulative maneater. Feldman's own big-city inauguration came when she moved from Kansas to Chicago several years ago. "That first winter, I didn't have a proper coat. I'd just run from place to place, but I was so excited it didn't matter." Today, cold-weather wardrobe staples hold a place of honor in her closet in Los Angeles.
Fortunately, work still brings Feldman East--whether it's for an acting gig in New York or this fashion shoot in Bar Harbor, Maine--which allows Feldman to indulge her fondness of fall and winter apparel. "I really like structured coats and layered scarves, she says. "And I especially love cashmere sweaters." Her next splurge: a leather jacket to wear motorcycle riding: "I did well in the safety course but choked on the test. They let me pass, though--they knew I froze up because people were watching." Considering her rise in Hollywood, it's clear that her performance anxiety stops at the pavement.
