FabSugar — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 08:00:08 -0700

I wasn't going to leave you hanging after my first New York Fashion Week roundup. A lot happens in two days here. Adam Lippes, Thakoon, Zac Posen, Tracy Reese, Rebecca Taylor, DKNY, Christian Siriano, Carlos Miele - a lot. Trends are starting to surface: neutrals are ruling the runways, but luckily orange and blues are brightening things up; cutouts and draping are fabric treatments of choice; and sunglasses are soon to be the next hot accessory. Take a gander, start your wish list . . .

Trend Alert: Rad Black Ruching

FabSugar — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 05:50:22 -0700

What's rad? Ruching, that's what. It's an ancient sewing technique, and it's flattering powers are undeniable. Especially when it comes to a sexy, hot LBD with rad black ruching. If you don't already have one of these quick fix, every-occasion frocks, I suggest you consider. Look at how stunning Emmy Rossum looks in her architectural Emanuel Ungaro; she doesn't show a lot of skin, but it's somehow seriously sexy. OK, her black gladiator Stuart Weitzman sandals may have something to do with it too . . .

Hot duo Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr stepped out looking mighty fine last night at an Audi celebration in Beverly Hills. While you enjoy the eye candy, let's dissect Miranda's pretty in pale ensemble. Playing with proportions, the Victoria's Secret model wore a bandage skirt paired with a draped top - all by Stella McCartney. A white blazer adds a crisp touch while patent Christian Louboutin pumps and a Prada lace bowler inject sass. Too cute.

Elizabeth And James Summer Blazer - $395.00	Christian Louboutin Simple Pump 70 - $565.00

Celebrity Style: Kerry Washington

FabSugar — Fri, 20 Feb 2009 12:00:22 -0800

Kerry Washington looked spectacular yesterday at Essence magazine's luncheon in Beverly Hills. Always one to try new things, Kerry wore a smashing feathered skirt and blazer by Louis Vuitton. Feathery skirts can add a little volume so it was smart to cinch in her waistline with an eye-popping metallic obi belt. Patent leopard pumps, a black clutch, gold macho watch, and sophisticated gold hoops complete her tigress appeal; now that's style!

Online Sale Alert! Prefall Sale at Adam Lippes

FabSugar — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 14:00:22 -0800

Designer Adam Lippes is having a prefall sale you don't want to miss. Trust me. His designs are delicate and feminine without being obnoxious. Take a look and see what I mean.

Among the offerings is this Adam Shirttail Tunic ($159, originally $265). How can one resist the pleated sleeves and collar, and the miniature buttons? There's also a basics sale for those who want something, well, more basic.

Trend Alert: Fuzzy Vests

FabSugar — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 07:00:22 -0700

Rachel Zoe lives in them, Kate Moss dabbles in them and I kinda want to give one a whirl. When cold weather comes a knockin' anything fuzzy nurtures the style soul. If you don't want a full on fur jacket or coat, a fuzzy vest can nip that cold in the bud. These look Fab atop both flared or skinny jeans, but boots are a must to elevate the boho look.

Haute Hippie Maribou Feather Vest - $495.00	Seaton Joplin Faux Fur Vest - $235.00
Adam Coyote Fur Vest - $795.00	Cassin Silver Fox Fur Cropped Vest - $1,195.00
Fuzzy Drop Shoulder Vest - $118.00	Maizie Shearling Vest - $595.00
Loose Fuzzy Cashmere Sleeveless Vest in Black - $319.00	Laurence Heller Curly Lamb Cropped Vest - $345.00
Romany Vest - $69.95

Sneak Peek! Adam Lippes Relaunched Basics

FabSugar — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 03:00:22 -0700

You know the brand Adam+Eve? Well now designer Adam Lippes has nixed that name and relaunched his basics under Adam. Plain and simple, much like his offerings. The new Adam, debuting on Oct. 15, will offer everything from throw-on dresses to simple slouchy tank tops, sheer camisoles, and chic harem-style bottoms. Prices range from $45 to $200. Not bad.

These pieces come in cashmere and pima blends that are so soft and provide a pretty drape silhouette. Another difference is that Adam is now using a newly developed quality of mercerized cotton, which gives fabrics a lustrous appearance. Perfect.

Which Stylin' AMA Male Is Most Fab?

FabSugar — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 18:27:53 -0800

We're always talking about the ladies, but what about the men? At the 2009 American Music Awards, five stylin' males stood out on the red carpet. Joe Perry played it rock 'n roll cool, Adam Lambert worked his slim suit, Ne-Yo looked spiffy in a two-tone blazer and fedora, Pete Wentz did his military thing, and Keith Urban opted for all black. No doubt, they all dressed to impress, but which stylin' male is most Fab?
