Whether this designer wins FabSugar Designer of the Year or not, 2006 was definitely a plentiful year for Doo.Ri. This new designer won both the Perry Ellis Award for emerging talent in womenswear and the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund in the past year and based on your response to her Spring '07 collection she may have a third win coming her way.

Doo.Ri has a rags-to-riches story. In 2001, Doori Chung started promoting her label, Doo.Ri, at her downtown New York store Klee. She debuted on the runway for Fall 2003. Before receiving much-needed funding, she had been creating out of the basement of her parents’ New Jersey dry-cleaning store. Then poof! Doori received an Ecco Domani award and then the aforementioned awards. Editors and shoppers alike adore her designs for their interesting architectural details and she works primarily with jersey - the ever-flattering fabric. Her finishing touches are chains that close a dramatically plunging back line and leather bands that cinch the waist. So where is Doo.Ri designing from now? A spacious, light-filled Manhattan work space. Nice.

Tune in tomorrow for our fifth and final nominee for FabSugar Designer of the Year and the voting will take place tomorrow afternoon!

Here is a Fab Finding follow up guaranteed to make you overdose on red. Last week I asked you all to go Fab Finding and put together a red monochrome outfit. I started you off with this Ella Moss Harmony Top, $152 and asked you to find not-too-bright red-ish tights or pants, shoes and a bag. Looks like you all had fun with this one so be sure to check out all the red monochrome fab finds! Let's see what you all put together! To learn what a Fab Find is and how to make one, click here.

Look #1, found by WhiplashGirlchild is awesome with these burgundy patent leather Mary Janes and over the knee bright red socks. Then I would layer this wine colored keyhole dress underneath the dress I found!

There are some color combinations that are tricky: black and brown, purple and pink, orange and green, and the colors of McDonald's, red and yellow.

You don't know how much this mini dress mystery was driving me crazy. Thanks to this weekend's Life & Style magazine I can now sleep at night. Me, melodramatic?...no! We featured this fab fit as a Celebrity Style: Cameron Diaz a couple weeks ago and I am happy to report the dress was, none other than...Chanel! And, in case you missed it, check out our post on Cameron's wardrobe from The Holiday.

I love this outfit so much here are a few non-designer graphic print black and white dresses that could achieve this New Years-worthy look:

Did I ever mention how un-fab it is to tip poorly? I try to tip well all the time but when the holidays roll around I too forget what the standards are. Afterall, this Prada
French Purse Wallet, $290, could use a little workout. Here is my FabSugar Guide to Holiday Tipping:

• Teacher: $25-100. A gift certificate is always appropriate. If you know the teacher's hobbies or interests, then a gift certificate would be nice.
• Baby sitter: One night's pay, plus a small gift from your child.
• Full-time nanny: One week to one month of pay based on tenure, plus a small gift from your child.
• Day care service: $25-70, plus a small gift from your child.
• Apartment building superintendent: $50-200. (Tip less if you tip throughout the year).
• Apartment Doorman/concierge: $10-80 or more each, depending upon building. Those who serve you more should get a bigger tip.
• Apartment building handyman: $15-40 each
