Fabulous Holiday Cards

I feel the U.S.

I feel the U.S. Postal Service is underutilized by our generation. Stationary is very special. Receiving and opening a handwritten note from a long lost friend can brighten your day. And we all know the badgering in store for those who forget to send Glam-Ma a birthday note. There are so many fab stationary designers out there and holiday cards are no longer cheesy and stiff. Here are some websites showcasing the best of the best holiday cards.

These are all available at the MoMA Store online, packs of eight range from $15.95-$18.95, available here.

These are all by Uncooked, sold separately for $3.25, available here.

Love It or Hate It

In case you missed this big news yesterday... The time has come to ask Fab fans to contribute to one of the most popular FabSugar features: Love It or Hate It?

In case you missed this big news yesterday...

The time has come to ask Fab fans to contribute to one of the most popular FabSugar features: Love It or Hate It? I love sharing my opinions about polarizing clothing items but you gals come across interesting things too. In fact, the most commented Love It or Hate It? was a tip from WhiplashGirlchild and these Dolce & Gabbana Shiny Stirrups were very controversial; they still make me cringe!

To post your selections go to Love It or Hate It?. And if you want to learn how to do a blog post click here. Don't forget to headline it with 'Love' or 'Hate.' I can't wait to see your Loves and Hates and I plan to feature my faves on Fab so get posting!

The suite already has some members who have posted some iffy items. Follow JessNess's lead and post your finds!

Trend Alert

Trend Alert: Printed Henleys

Now that I am a surfer girl I have fallen in love with the henley.

Now that I am a surfer girl I have fallen in love with the henley. This sporty top is comfy and cute, and a winter staple. Henleys provide the perfect look for running errands on a lazy Sunday. I've noticed pretty printed henleys lately - a nice break from monotonous plain ones. Express yourself with sassy zebra stripes or cheeky bicycle prints! Here are my designer and non-designer choices.

Language Los Angeles Papyrus Print Knit Henley, $108, find it here.

Louis Vuitton

The Luxe Louis Vuitton Damier Azur Collection

The ever classic Louis Vuitton is changing with the times.

The ever classic Louis Vuitton is changing with the times. This is one successful brand that knows how to keep their image fresh and still manage to evoke old world elegance. For the first time since it's debut in 1888, their original brown-on-brown checkerboard pattern Damier collection of bags and leather goods is allowing the color blue into the mix.

This collection was inspired by and designed to reflect life on the French Riviera. If you ask me, the color is well suited to match the sparkling water of the glorious Mediterranean. Bags available in this new pattern are: the Speedy, the Keepall, the Noé, the Saleya and the Pampelonne. Other pieces in the collection are: the vanity case, the accessories box, sandals, hair cubes and flip flops. Customized hat boxes and trunks are available as well.

Fab Finding

Come Fab Finding With Me: A Night at the Movies With Your BFF

The key to dressing for a night at the movies is comfort.

The key to dressing for a night at the movies is comfort. You're sitting down for a couple hours, at least, and snacking on forbidden junk food (no judgement!). But you don't want to look like you just rolled out of bed and headed to the theater...you never know who you'll run into at the concession stand. When I want to cozy up I wear one of my many hoodies. I have provided a classic Original Penguin one to jump start the outfit, $79 available here. This hoodie is pretty simple, so help me jazz it up. And here's the catch: no jeans allowed!

So let's all go Fab Finding for non-jean bottoms, shoes, a bag, and jewelry to add some sparkle to this tame hoodie. Be sure tag your Fab Finds with the words Movie Night. To learn what a Fab Find is and how to make one, click here. To see some of my favorite online stores, read more
