dannysf — Thu, 12 Aug 2010 14:00:22 PDT

Leopard prints come in all sizes. There are tiny leopard dots, midsized ones, then there are the latest hottest magnified prints a la Chloé's Resort '10 blouse Heidi Klum wore on the second episode of Project Runway. If you're digging this oversized leopard motif, then get yourself this ModCloth Stealth Style Cardigan ($50) as an alternative to the expensive Chloé top. Pair it over a white V-neck tee with skinny green cargos, cinch your waist with a skinny brown belt, and you have yourself a designer look for less!

Fab Ad: Gucci, Cruise '10

FabSugar — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 03:00:22 PST

Let's take a mini escape from Fall and focus on resort. For their Cruise '10 collection, Gucci ditched most of its Fall '09 models but kept Natasha Poly and added Snejana Onopka. The campaign was shot in Barcelona by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott - Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin previously shot Gucci campaigns. Snejana, Natasha, and male model Ryan Kennedy have a sun-filled time while we sit back and gaze in envy. The vacationing trio should be having a blast, but rather, they look quite disconnected from one another. Why so serious? Well, at least they look spotless. What do you think?

Behind the Seams: Zimmermann Resort Presentation

FabSugar — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 15:29:06 PDT

I got a little treat trip to NYC this week and you know what that means - take full advantage of the fashion fetes. I attended Australian swim and RTW brand Zimmermann's Resort collection on the roof of the Empire Hotel and it was nothing short of fabulous. Put me next to crazy-fun exotic clothes overlooking the skyline and I'm stoked. I chatted with the sister design duo, Nicky and Simone - Fab cameo! - and was left with a visit to Syndey at the top of my travel queue. And I am convinced Australians do beach better. Just look at the foxy silhouettes and vivid prints. A garden-print bustier top is on my Zimmermann wish list . . . check out the fun!

Cruise '10 Trend: Clean, Lean Trousers

FabSugar — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 03:00:22 PDT

With Cruise '10 in full effect, let's stop and evaluate the latest. Frocks and skirts dominated, but what really caught my eye were clean, lean trousers - quite the opposite of crazy harem pants. Instead, trousers ranged from cropped and loose-fitting to tight and body-con. All polished, all pretty. Each style had its own appeal; I can see myself rockin' these silky Roksanda Ilincic trousers to a rooftop party and these Rebecca Taylor pants for a lazy bike ride. Want to see the cream of the crop?

Look Book Love: Lerario Beatriz Resort '10

FabSugar — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 09:00:33 PDT

I first spotlighted Brazilian designer Lerario Beatriz in 2007, but she's grown immensely since starting her company in 2005. Seeing as how we're in the middle of chic cruise season, it's fitting for me to bring you her Cruise '10 look book. It's romantic and gorgeously simple, with interesting details. Unlike some resort lines, you won't find lots of colors here, but you will find cuts that are undoubtedly fashion-forward. You can tell Beatriz is serious about her fashion and fashion is serious about her.

Cruise '10 Melts Our Hearts

FabSugar — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 05:50:22 PDT

Cruise collections are so delightful. Not only do they get you in the spirit of Summer, most creations are actually wearable, and if you're like me, easy to re-create. This round varies from flirty to dazzling thanks to Monique Lhuillier's indulgent creations. Stella McCartney's gingham dress and yellow heels are cute enough for an outdoor wedding or even a picnic in Central Park. Keep clicking to see the best resort pieces from Burberry, Phillip Lim, Versace, Jonathan Saunders, Alberta Ferretti, and more!

Chic Cruise '10 Sails On

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 08:00:08 PDT

As long as the cunning Cruise '10 collections keep coming in, we'll continue sharing them with you. Next up, we have a mishmash of ensembles ranging from crisp to ethereal by Gucci, Michael Kors, Giorgio Armani, Anna Sui, Christian Dior, Derek Lam, and Narciso Rodriguez - phew! I love how Gucci's Frida Giannini kept things sleek and sexy with streamlined cuts and colors. Keeping the neck high and slit high on this gown is a genius move. Oh, but there's more - don't miss it.
