These Boots Are Made For Walking: Buckle Up

No matter where you're going, buckle up and enjoy the walk.
Juicy Couture at ShopStyle

No matter where you're going, buckle up and enjoy the walk. Buckles have sprouted all over the place on boots: on the front, in the center, on the sides. And they're not all created equal. You'll even notice some experimental boots with stacked buckles. Fab!

This Juicy Couture Jett Buckle Bootie ($448) is among the more posh styles on the market. The polished buckle makes this otherwise-plain boot more glamorous. Whether you're rugged, prim, modern, or old-fashioned, there's a buckle for you.

Missoni Stone Embellished Necklace: Love It or Hate It?

I pretty much love everything Missoni does, but this Missoni Stone Embellished Necklace ($1,465) is freaky.

I pretty much love everything Missoni does, but this Missoni Stone Embellished Necklace ($1,465) is freaky. It reminds me of an alien creature. I feel like it would be activated when putting it on, and that wouldn't be a good thing. Statement piece or scary piece?

London got a little more stylish last night when Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen showed up to launch their clothing line overseas.

London got a little more stylish last night when Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen showed up to launch their clothing line overseas. Elizabeth and James is going to be sold at Selfridges — I'm sure that excites many a British girl, including our own FabSugar UK. Among the locals who helped the twins celebrate were Henry Holland, Alexa Chung, Pixie Geldof, and Daria Zhukova, designer of Kova&T. Clothes were shown, pictures were taken, a merry time was had by all.

Celebrity Style: Vanessa Hudgens

The High School Musical gang is out promoting their third flick.

The High School Musical gang is out promoting their third flick. At the UK premiere, Vanessa Hudgens stole the spotlight in a fun polka-dot Simone dress, Catherine Malandrino motorcycle jacket, and Jimmy Choo double-strap pumps. You would think the combination of leather, silk, satin, and patent would clash but, no, it all comes together quite flawlessly.
