Fab Flash: Kimora Lee Simmons Unveils Her Fabulosity

FabSugar — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 12:00:22 -0700

In an attempt to get in with the in crowd, JCPenney has teamed up with Baby Phat founder Kimora Lee Simmons, in launching her exclusive juniors line, Fabulosity. The brand will encompass the same trendy elements as its sister label but at lower price points, between $29 to $108, in comparison to Baby Phat's $30 to $200 range.

"The Fabulosity girl is fun, fashionable and chic, but she doesn't want to spend her last penny on something to wear. This collection is fashionable, but also affordable. The days of spending tons on clothes are gone - I mean, I still do it, but young girls can't," said Simmons. Kimora also expressed interest in expanding Fabulosity into a full-lifestyle collection, comparable to Baby Phat's, adding shoes, accessories, handbags, and a home collection.

Offerings of skinny denim, blouses, knit tops, and dresses are currently available online and will be sold in stores this month.

Return of the Fanny Pack: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Tue, 12 Sep 2006 07:01:04 -0700

Believe it or not, the fanny pack is back. That is, if Baby Phat's Spring 2007 runway show at Fashion Week is any indication. Sure, it's a little bit sleeker, and the leather belt pouch is a far cry from the nylon zippered version. But it's still a fanny pack. What do you guys think? Love it or hate it?

NY Fashion Week: Baby Phat

FabSugar — Sun, 10 Sep 2006 23:01:44 -0700

Welcome to the first of Fabsugar's runway reviews from New York Fashion Week, which officially kicked off on Friday. One of the first and flashiest shows: BabyPhat by Kimora Lee Simmons. Like most events held by the sister label to Phat Farm, the unveiling of the Spring 2007 event was a celebrity magnet, attended by Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Lil' Kim, Brandy, and, of course 50 Cent, who ended up in a front-row scuffle.

As for the clothes, the styles were in keeping with Baby Phat's usual high-end hip-hop vibe, with some notable twists, like lattice-work midrifts and dolman-sleeve tops. Spring 2007 also looks to be carrying over some trends from fall, like dressy shorts and girly menswear atop capri-length leggings. To see the highlights from the Spring 2007 collection, read more

Baby Phat Golden Goddess by Kimora Lee Simmons

FabSugar — Tue, 30 Jan 2007 06:26:33 -0800

Welcome to the first of several sexy scents that will be featured this week. This fab fragrance is divalicious, and promises to make you feel like a golden goddess. I am not talking about Cate Blanchett at the 2007 SAG Awards, I am talking about the saucy and sexy perfume by Kimora Lee Simmons called, Golden Goddess, $52.
This scent must be modeled after its maker, Kimora Lee Simmons; it's glamorous, golden and is adorned with lots of bling! It evokes feelings of champagne wishes and caviar dreams.

The smell is derived from top notes of actual champagne, seringa, blue lilies, night orchid, chocolate and caramel gourmand, vanilla flower patchouli and vetiver. It has a moderate scent strength and should stay on anywhere from six to ten hours.

The faceted bottle was inspired by Kimora's adoration of the rare and prized canary-yellow diamond. It even comes with a faux canary-yellow diamond ring that is atop the neck of the bottle...how fun! It is also available in a shimmering body lotion for $45.

New York Fashion Week Trend Alert: Shorts

FabSugar — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 11:00:22 -0700

It's no surprise to me that shorts have become a favorite hot weather option, what with the fusion of menswear and tailoring into today's fashion. We saw them this Summer, and I hope I shined some light on how cute and functional they can be. Get used to getting shorty because come Spring you will have a myriad of options...from bermudas, cuffed styles, denim, short shorts and color. You have roughly six months to think it over so don't think too hard!
