Which Elizabeth Hurley Breast Cancer Pink Frock is Most Fab?

Elizabeth Hurley is one of those women who seems to have defeated time.

Elizabeth Hurley is one of those women who seems to have defeated time. She looks just as beautiful and youthful as she did ten years ago. I always thought she was a looker and who could forget her breakthrough Versace safety pin dress?! She has been on a whirlwind tour promoting Estee Lauder and its Breast Cancer Awareness efforts and has been doing so in an array of pink-hued dresses. I have been stalking her pretty looks, but I have to ask: which of these is most Fab?!

High Fashion on Ice

Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Gisele Bundchen and the slew of other mega models are talented, but I highly doubt they are skilled enough to do high fashion on ice.

Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Gisele Bundchen and the slew of other mega models are talented, but I highly doubt they are skilled enough to do high fashion on ice. American figure skater, Sasha Cohen, proves in V Magazine's Blade Runner shoot that you don't need to be a professional model to create killer high fashion photos. These shots are worth a front-row seat and we're your ticket.

Do you all remember the Sasha Cohen competition on season two of Project Runway? The designing gang's task was to design a skating outfit for the 2006 silver medalist. What do you think about these photos of Sasha? Are they high fashion or do they fall flat on the ice?

Love It or Hate It

LA Fashion Week Spring 2008, Chick by Nicky Hilton: Love It or Hate It?

Nicky Hilton's Spring 2008 collection for her line, Chick by Nicky Hilton, is retro with a modern twist.

Nicky Hilton's Spring 2008 collection for her line, Chick by Nicky Hilton, is retro with a modern twist. This apple print halter mini dress is one of the many cutesy pieces Paris' little sis designed. Although apples aren't one of my favorite fruits (I mean does an apple a day really keep the doctor away?), I would wear this frock because it's lighthearted, fun and super girly. Do you love it or hate it?

Fab Flash: Isaac Mizrahi Unveils His Latest Collection

Isaac Mizrahi is no stranger to drama.

Isaac Mizrahi is no stranger to drama. In fact, he's spent most of his career in front of the camera: interviewing celebrities on the red carpet, making cameos on Sex and the City and Ugly Betty, and even hosting his own show on the Style Network. But nothing is more delicious than his documentary Unzipped, which followed Isaac as he created his Fall 1994 collection; with all of the model cat-fights, fashion-editor spats, and designer drama, Isaac proved he knew a thing or two about theatrics.

Now Isaac is bringing his experiences to the CW network with The Collection, a one-hour scripted drama that will focus on the trials and tribulations of the designer. Executive Producer, Elisa Bell, promises that the show will cover "real-life issues like racism, giant egos, fragile relationships, drugs, conflict of ethics and sexuality." Sounds spicy! Here's to hoping that The Collection will be as good as what Isaac shows on the runway.

Halloween

A Fabby Halloween: Carrie Bradshaw

Sex and the City's Carrie Bradshaw has become such a fashion icon, I often forget she's a fictional character.

Sex and the City's Carrie Bradshaw has become such a fashion icon, I often forget she's a fictional character. What's more, Sarah Jessica Parker personified the character so flawlessly, I refuse to believe the actress still doesn't dress up in Manolos and funky patterns when out and about in NYC. I love Halloween because it's a chance to dress like your favorite characters and one of mine is definitely Carrie B. I mean, who else said things like "I like my money right where I can see it...hanging in my closet" and "Men who are too good looking are never good in bed because they never had to be" and looked so cool?

Simply Fab: Goochy Goo Baby Greeting Cards

Your babe may not have started talking yet, but that doesn't mean he or she can't scribble a card.

Your babe may not have started talking yet, but that doesn't mean he or she can't scribble a card. Okay, maybe mommy will have to do the writing, but these Handsome Devil Press Goochy Goo Baby Greeting Cards, $3.50 each, are too precious not to mention.

The Ga Ga Goo Goo (left) is my favorite for a baby girl. Inside it says "sweet baby talk." Aww! These cards will come in handy when you need to send a thank you card after a birthday party, baptism or play date. All the other moms will be jealous of your dandy stationary.

Trend Alert: Sweet Satin Accessories

Though satin has survived a couple seasons now, it's still welcome in my book.

Though satin has survived a couple seasons now, it's still welcome in my book. Sweet satin accessories are smooth operators. And how yummy are they in fun candy colors? Very appetizing. While one may reserve these fancy treats for evening, I suggest you break your reservation. How much cooler would these be worn with contrasting pieces like torn denim jeans or an ethereal dress? Way cooler.
