Come Fab Finding With Me: Open Mic Night

FabSugar — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 09:00:08 PST

Next week, I'm heading to the local bar for open mic night. No, I won't be the one on stage - the only singing I do is in the shower - but my friend will be showing off his sweet voice. If you've been to an open mic, you know it's all about looking artsy, comfy, and cool. Can you help me figure out an outfit?

I'll start you off with this Mike & Chris Franco Cashmere Beret ($126). I adore the cozy cable knit texture.

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 Open Mic Night. Now, you can build outfits by creating your very own widget 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 completing your Fab Finding missions. Learn what a Fab Find is and how to make one.

Look of the Day: Lush Leather

FabSugar — Wed, 13 May 2009 04:50:22 PDT

Not many people dare to wear leather, but gogosushi does. Her lush leather-like pants are a fun way to spice up daywear. I like how she styled them with a long cardi and cozy beret for an effortless, casual look. I'm inspired.

Here's what she has on:
Beret: Dotti
Cardigan: Unknown
Shirt: Bardot
Pants: Chiara Fashions
Satchel: Yves Saint Laurent
Flats: Joanne Mercer

Congrats to gogosushi!

Look of the Day: Check Her Out

FabSugar — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 06:00:22 PDT

Check her out - all Walto012 needed was an adorable checkered skirt to elevate the fun factor in her look. The high waist makes it current, while the beret adds Parisian whimsy. The black V-neck tee is a good way to add nonchalance to the mix.

Here's what she's wearing:

Top: Forever 21
Skirt: Papaya
Beret: Forever 21
Belt: Papaya
Tights: Target
Shoes: INC

Congrats to Walto012!

Guess the Stylish Hat Shape!

FabSugar — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 10:00:22 PST

I love my hats. They're one of the most functional accessories and come in countless styles. I can't live without my beanie in the Winter and my fedora in the Summer. Can you differentiate your fedoras from your fez caps? Take my quiz to see if you're a certified hat connoisseur!

Question 1 of 8

Can you guess what type of cool hat this is?

Look of the Day: Thrift Score

FabSugar — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 06:00:22 PST

Walto012 went to the thrift store and guess what? She got a thrift score! It's the moody floral jumper she's wearing. I'd like to point out her Fab styling skills: I adore the tan braided belt she used to belt the blazer, and the beret adds further spunk to the mix.

Here's what she's wearing:

Jumper: Thrift
Blazer: Charlotte Russe
Beret: Forever 21
Belt: Forever 21
Purse: Forever 21
Tights: Target
Boots: Reflection

Congrats to Walto012!

Look of the Day: Just Lovely

FabSugar — Tue, 23 Dec 2008 04:00:22 PST

The first thing that popped up in my head when I saw bellakoko's outfit: Just lovely. The floral top is sweet and I love how she made it more interesting with a skinny belt. The black jeans are tough while the ivory beret ties it all together. Masterful mixing!

Here's what she's wearing:

Top: Topshop
Jeans: Mango
Beret: Uniqlo
Belt: H&M
Shoes: Nine West

Congrats to bellakoko!

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Take a (Fall) Hike

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 16:00:22 PST

With all the yummy Thanksgiving food I gobbled up last week, I desperately need to take a hike. I decided to gather a little group and head to Muir Woods. Your challenge was to find an outfit that would be comfortable enough to climb in but stylish enough to hang out in post-hike.

I started you off with this Urban Outfitters Hand Knitted Button Beret ($28) to keep my head cutely warm. Let's see what you all came up with!

Look #1, created by Brielle, is the epitome of Fall. Her choice of hues is perfect.

Look of the Day: Beret Chic

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 05:00:22 PST

Berets always manage to inject refinement into an outfit. Case in point: moni2182 looked beret chic while going to brunch with friends. Her hat softened up her tough leather jacket, while the mustard turtleneck dress added color. Perfection.

Here's what she has on:

Jacket: Mike & Chris
Shoes: Steve Madden
Bag: Botkier

Congrats to moni2182!
