Come Fab Finding With Me: Reservations at the Poshest Spot in Town

I already stayed in and cooked with my Lovah and now I'm ready to dine out!

I already stayed in and cooked with my Lovah and now I'm ready to dine out! A best friend and I are hitting up one of San Francisco's newest, poshest restaurants. I hear it has cool art pieces, expensive decor, and the elite of the city as patrons. This isn't just any old joint, so I need help putting together an outfit that will make me stand out but not stick out. I'm thinking something a little sexy but not slutty. Let your imaginations run wild.

I'll start you off with this Forever 21 Coral Silk Scarf ($9) because it's versatile. I can wear it around my neck, bag, or hair.

Let's go Fab Finding! Be sure to come back and tell me your Fab Finds are up, or just tag your Fab Finds with posh restaurant.

Now, you can build outfits by creating a list of clothing items. We have everything you need to build outfits, and you can use your Fab-Find bookmarks, too. This is an even better way to put together an entire outfit when you are completing your Fab-Finding missions.

2008 MTV Movie Awards Trend Alert: I've Been a Bad, Bad Girl

There were the goodie two shoes of the MTV Movie Awards and then there were the bad girls.
2008 MTV Movie Awards Trend Alert: I've Been a Bad, Bad Girl

There were the goodie two shoes of the MTV Movie Awards and then there were the bad girls. Or well, wannabe bad girls. Guess which group can kick the asses of the other? You guessed right. There were a handful of bad girls dressed to kick in black, stilettos, and attitudes, but my favorites, Anne Hathaway, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Charlize Theron, were the leaders of the pack. From Anne's black liquid Sophia Kokosalaki dress to SJP's white witch-inspired boots, to Charlize's sexy superhero getup, these ladies made it clear to not mess with them. Bad girl power!

Fab Finds of the Week: In Your Jeans

It's quite apparent — jeans are in your genes.

It's quite apparent — jeans are in your genes. I can't object because there are so many versatile styles out there, from wide-leg to flare, skinny to capri. Although living in denim isn't the most fashion forward thing one can do, it is a necessary staple to have.

The Fab Finder of the week is azulskies, because she found these adorable Fred Flare Denim Shorts. They're lightweight, so perfect for warm weather!

Congrats to azulskies, northbound711, saddyblue, clothesline, and ksiezniczka_zuu!

Rest In Peace, Yves Saint Laurent

We are sad to announce that legendary Yves Saint Laurent has passed away.
Rest In Peace, Yves Saint Laurent

We are sad to announce that legendary Yves Saint Laurent has passed away. The 71-year-old French designer who had been battling brain cancer died in his home in Paris. Yves started his career at the early age of seventeen and has grown to become one of the most influential fashion designers in the world. He began designing at the house of Dior at the early age of 21 and went on to creating his own label YSL, in 1962. He created numerous iconic fashion trends including Le Smoking suit, also known as the women's tuxedo.

Rest in peace Yves Saint Laurent. We will miss you dearly. Please take a moment to view our tribute to the famed designer.

On Our Radar: Mary-Kate and Ashley Jewelry in the Works

First clothing lines The Row and Elizabeth and James and now a jewelry collection?

First clothing lines The Row and Elizabeth and James and now a jewelry collection? The fashion gods must be listening! Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have teamed up with CFDA award-winning jewelry designer and sculptor Robert Lee Morris to create bling for the masses under a line dubbed Robert Lee Morris for Elizabeth and James. Well, the price point of the line will determine how much mass appeal it will have, but I can't wait to see the pieces. The trio has been hard at work for a few months, digging into archives in Morris' headquarters in downtown Manhattan. So what can we expect from the petite sisters? Why, nothing short of silver and brass dagger necklaces, knuckle rings, and cool earrings. Bring. It. On!
