Linday Lohan Is FabSugar's #1 (Today)

When I woke up this morning and saw this brilliant rainbow band-aid dress I seriously experienced heart palpitations.

When I woke up this morning and saw this brilliant rainbow band-aid dress I seriously experienced heart palpitations. Needless to say, I was able to skip my morning cup of Earl Grey (I'm so hard core). Do you know who this dress is? I would bet my first pair of Chanel sunglasses it is vintage Herve Leger. The man who created bright and tight couture dresses that fit like a glove; it's no surprise his hey day was when supermodels ruled the world. I could not find this dress to buy, because it may be a one or three-of-a-kind, but I was inspired. Just when I was beginning to get a little bored of sequin and strapless dresses, Lindsay saved my day! Brava.

Fab Flash: Burberry Ditching Signature Plaid?

What is this we hear?

What is this we hear? Burberry is no longer mad for its signature plaid? Though the brand is not doing away with the Burberry check altogether, it has decided to put a heavier emphasis on its accessories line and upscale Prorsum collection. And the results are promising. Sales are three times higher since the toning down of the plaid last year. The idea is to bring back exclusivity to the brand and to not be a one-trick pony. Do you agree with Burberry's deemphasizing of their signature plaid?

Now that you know how to throw a fun-filled bachelorette party here are some ideas on what to wear! While I like to think of every Friday night as ladies night, I realize these Christian Louboutin Glitter Pumps, $630, are pretty spectacular.

Look of the Day

Look of the Day: Rockin' the Faded Jeans

BCBG_girl29 is definitely rockin' the faded jeans, which is normally a hard denim look to pull off.

BCBG_girl29 is definitely rockin' the faded jeans, which is normally a hard denim look to pull off. I like how she layered her tanks and threw on the antique-looking locket to round out the ensemble.

Here's what she has on:

  • Green Tank: C&C California
  • Black Tank: Rubbish
  • Jeans: Abercrombie & Fitch
  • Necklace: Nordstrom
  • Flip Flops: Gap

Congrats to BCBG_girl29!

Handbags

The Bag To Have: Lanvin Metallic Kentucky Tote

Lanvin has such a rich history and it amazingly keeps reinventing itself.

Lanvin has such a rich history and it amazingly keeps reinventing itself. This Metallic Kentucky Tote, $2,175, is immaculate. The soft leather and warm metallic hue is so refreshing next to some of the more masculine and gaudy handbags out there right now. Best of all, it will be great for Spring, Summer and Fall, because, as you recall, small metallic purses are here to stay. Plus, the top half sort of reminds me of the Hermes Birkin, and anything that resembles a Birkin is a sign of a bag to have in my book.

Celebrity Style: Sophia Bush

Looks like Sophia has jumped on the sequin train!

Looks like Sophia has jumped on the sequin train! I don't blame her - it's way fun. However, she is at a Maxim party so I feel her accessories fall flat. I know the dress has a lot of pizazz, but that doesn't mean her shoes and purse have to be drab. I found a couple alternatives that emphasize the flirtiness of her navy sequin dress brought to us by WhiplashGirlchild - thanks babe!

Trend Alert: A Softer Side of Studs

Ok, so maybe when I previously showed you studs it was a bit heavy handed.





Ok, so maybe when I previously showed you studs it was a bit heavy handed. I apologize. I think you will enjoy seeing the softer side of studs. Now that we're officially out of Winter and in Spring mode, these have more allure. These are not punk rock, these are glam rock. Likey?

I Want This Wardrobe: The O.C., Season 4

I hope you have been enjoying our O.C.

I hope you have been enjoying our O.C. wardrobe tribute posts! Alas, all good things come to an end, as did The O.C. after a mere four seasons. Now I have to admit I totally lost interest after Marissa died in Season 3. Therefore I can't deliver a recap of the final season, but someone in another Sugar pod can! I did tune in a few times, but I just wasn't feeling it anymore. Did you all feel the same way? Nevertheless, with Marissa out of the picture, we had Taylor and Kaitlin wearing some cute duds for us to marvel at. Here is our fashion series finale.

Season Four

On Taylor:
Edun 'Casey' Blouse, $62.
Tod's Black Leather 'Carey' Large Satchel, $2,000.

On Summer:
Anthropologie Cinquefoil Blouse, $88.
Jacqueline Jarrot Fringe Front Hobo, $340.

Love It or Hate It

2007 Cannes Film Festival: Chloe Sevigny

I am so crushing on Chloe's black and white Cannes ensemble.

I am so crushing on Chloe's black and white Cannes ensemble. I admire her successful attempt at fusing a bit of feminine ruffles with a masculine Scorpion belt. And I just love how she can wear the tiniest of mini skirts and still look classy. But, fix your bangs girl! Do you agree?
