Love It or Hate It? Christian Dior Fab says that the spring Christian Dior collection reminds her of Marlene Dietrich, and I agree. Check out the eyebrows on this model! Judging by what we're seeing on runways and the red carpet, it seems like Old Hollywood makeup is here to stay. (Well, at least for another season, anyway.) I'm not so sure about the purposely messy hair, though. It's a little too convincingly bedhead for me. What say you?
If you don't know which way to go down the menswear brick road this Fall, the easiest place to start is tuxedo shirts. Ellen Pompeo looked fresh and chic in a Yves Saint Laurent shirt blowing in the wind this Summer. Fortunately, a crisp white shirt is a year 'round item. Not too long ago we had a tuxedo day but this pulled together yet relaxed look is in vogue, from here to eternity. Whether you choose to go white, black, shirt or shirtdress, go day or night paired with a pencil skirt or some sexy black skinnies and a pair of man-eating heels.
Glasses are hard to buy without trying them on. But if not seeing them means saving a couple hundred bucks, it may just be worth it. GlassesEtc.com stocks all of the latest sunglasses and eyeglasses. Brands include but are not limited to Ferragamo, Gucci, Juicy Couture, Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Tom Ford, YSL and Versace. For a look at their latest designs, go here. What I would do is try my favorite sunglass frame, say these Red Ray Ban Wayfarers, $120 (originally $139) in a store and then order them online. Sneaky!
Maroon
Dark, reddish-brown to purplish-red color. Derived from French marron, which means chestnut; it didn't become a color-word in English until 1791.

Back in June, we announced Forever 21's plans to come out with a luxury line, Twelve by Twelve. Good news Fab ladies, that times has finally come. Twelve by Twelve is open for business, both in stores and online. The prices are still relatively cheap but definitely pricier than the regular Forever 21 line. Be sure to check out the section titled Vintage Couture for all you old school-fashion lovers. Take a lookie at the items I'm considering...
Oohalicious is paying homage to the English supermodel Twiggy in her Fab tee. And just like her, I have Twiggy love. I also have love for her no-fuss ensemble, especially the booties.
Here's what she's wearing:
Congrats to Oohalicious!

She may be 19, but she has a date with destiny, there's no doubt about it. Her last name isn't Fendi for nothing, after all...Delfina Delettrez Fendi debuts her first jewelry collection this week during Paris Fashion Week, with a two-fold focus: animals and skulls. She drew inspiration from her grandmother's spooky wartime stories and antique crucifixes. The jewelry combines super luxe with nature elements — so think gold, silver and diamonds paired with leather, bone, and wood.
The 200-piece line runs $400-$3,000 and will be available at Colette.
