Celebrity Style: Miranda Kerr

FabSugar — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 10:00:08 -0800

Miranda Kerr and her gorgeous boy Orlando Bloom took time out of their busy lives to stroll the streets of Italy. As anyone who has ever been a tourist knows, comfort is key. Still, Miranda didn't sacrifice her style because of it. She bundled up in a cool khaki anorak and a black scarf. Her Frye boots kept her feet tough, the Prada lace bowler that Eva Mendes also has kept her pretty, while the purple gloves pulled in color. Bellisima!

What is functional, classic and totally now? Surprisingly, the anorak. No longer reserved for crew members and outdoorsy types, this lightweight protector from the elements is currently in Vogue.

Trend Alert: Olive Green Jackets

FabSugar — Fri, 13 Feb 2009 06:00:08 -0800

Baby, it's cold outside, but that shouldn't stop you from looking stylishly warm. Just take a gander at Gwyneth Paltrow, spotted on her way to lunch in London. Her olive green jacket is quintessentially chic. This warm color gives off a cool, militant vibe and goes with any ensemble. Pair it with skinny black pants and boots right now and with a flirty frock in the Spring. I actually own four and wouldn't have it any other way.

FabSugar — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 06:50:22 -0700

Most people hate the rain, but not sosupersam. The LA cutie welcomed the inclement weather in a stylish, splash-proof outfit. The green anorak is beyond rad and I fancy her cozy, oversized tube scarf. Like Bilson, she kept her toes dry in a pair of black Hunter wellies - smart!

Here's what she has on:

Top: American Apparel
Scarf: American Apparel
Tights: H&M
Jacket: H&M
Skirt: Unknown
Boots: Hunter
Lipstick: MAC Cyber

Congrats to sosupersam!

Sneak Peek! J.Crew Collection, Summer '09

FabSugar — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 07:50:00 -0700

J.Crew's Collection clothes are a step up from their usual feminine fodder. Luxurious fabrics and fine details make for a plush lineup. If things are overly frilly for you, at least revel in the keen styling. Brown belts softly break things up, jewelry is piled on haphazardly, cardigans are thrown over just so. Colors are sticky sweet: canary yellow, bougainvillea pink, misty gray, frothy cream. I've got my sights set on this ikat halter dress. Who would think to wear a sporty anorak over it? That would be the work of Ms. Jenna Lyons. Well played.

I Want This Wardrobe: Twilight, Bella Swan

FabSugar — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 14:00:22 -0800

When I wasn't watching Edward sparkle in the sunlight in Twilight, I was watching how costume designer Wendy Chuck brought the characters to life, or undead, through the movie wardrobe.

Not many people consider the Pacific Northwest to be a fashionable area, what with all the anoraks, knits, and slosh-retardant boots. But when Bella arrived in Forks she brought with her romance, just ask Edward, he smelled her from a mile away. Here she is in the classroom looking pretty pale herself. But her Lucky brand embroidered blouse softened things up, while her silver jewelry deemed her a boho. Her hair is a gorgeous dark reddish brown and a thin brown braided headband is subtly pretty. She wore jeans throughout the film, as well as oversized rain jackets and clunky boots. "These three things I was certain . . . ".

Lucky Brand Jeans Misses' Cap Sleeve Tunic with Embroidery - $78.00	The new low rise boot cut jeans - $59.50
La Canadienne - Valencia (Brown Suede) - $324.95	Homecoming Game Jacket - $218.00
Chaps Faux-Turquoise Floral Bangle Bracelet - $24.00	Sterling Silver White Onyx Ring - $150.00
Sterling Silver Turquoise Ring - $80.00	Kimchi Blue Basic Leather Belt - $34.00

On Our Radar: Adidas Launches New Sportswear

FabSugar — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 09:00:22 -0800

While we usually associate Adidas with workout clothes, the retailer has created a new line of clothing, dubbed Adidas SLVR, for people to rock outside the gym.

The new sportswear collection, not to be mistaken with activewear, consists of clothing, accessories, and footwear. Detailed tees and nylon jackets are said to be key items in the collection. Adidas SLVR debuts at New York Fashion Week in February and will also have storefronts opening up in SoHo and Paris come Spring. Prices will range from $45 to $190. I can totally see myself rocking this awesome anorak.

Milan Fashion Week, Spring 2009: Gucci

FabSugar — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 14:00:22 -0700

Not that she ever lost it, but Frida got her groove back. It's taken the designer a few seasons to really make a splash at the house of Gucci, and splashy this Spring collection is. With attendees like Rihanna and Rachel Zoe, I'm sure the aquarium colors and provocative shapes impressed. At Gucci there's always a lot of skin, but the clothes, many in vivid tropical and geometric prints, were spectacular spectacular.Utilitarian pants met loose blouses. Asymmetrical cuts supplied sex appeal. Colorful suiting contrasted sheer blouses. Many designers are playing with pants for Spring, but Gucci's dresses may keep the all-in-one look afloat. The leafy prints are Fab, in both a purple and camel and a turquoise and lagoon blue combo. A safari-infused anorak was even given the Frida treatment: fun, sexy, and party-ready.
