On the OS X side:
Open system preferences-->Sharing->click on internet tab
Share your connection from: select Built in ethernet
To computers using Select Airport
Click on Services tab
make sure "Personal Web Sharing " is checked
Click on firewall tab
if firewall is running, make sure box next to Personal web sharing is on

close system preferences.

Open parallels workstation
In the configuration panel, ie before you run the VM, click on Network Adapter
Check both boxes under device status
Select Bridged Ethernet
select Airport connection (en1)<-- this is on MBP, iMac should be similar
Boot your VM and voila.

Your VM is connecting to airport on the mac which connects it to built in ethernet
This works on an MBP even if Airport is off in the menuBar

Thanks, this helped me. I don't use Airport, so used the default adapter instead of the en1. Also you have to actually *start* web sharing by clicking the start button in addition to the clear step by step instructions given by Mike.
