FabSugar — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 05:00:22 -0800

Rocknrollheart is sporting a badass blue frock with black boots. It looks stunning against her blond hair, and I like how she layered with tights and a cardi. See, didn't I tell you it's all about singing the blues . . .

Here's what she has on:

Dress: Asos
Cardigan: H&M
Tights: M&S
Boots: Asos

Congrats to rocknrollheart!

Everyone else, submit your looks and I might feature you on FabSugar!

Trend Alert: Singing the Blues

FabSugar — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 10:00:08 -0800

Start singing the blues. Blue dresses are a cooler alternative to the classic LBD and make for a sizzling statement piece. There are a ton of hues to choose from; pick the tone that flatters you best. Katie opted for a casual look by pairing her berry blue tunic dress with leggings and flats; Marisa Tomei got glam in her silky frock; and Heather Graham paired her boho-chic dress with knee-high boots. All bodacious, all blue.

Who Wore It Better? Cobalt Silk Marchesa Mini

FabSugar — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 15:00:22 -0800

It's stiff competition when it's between the model-like designer of the dress and an actual model. Alas, we must decide. Both beauties wore this cobalt strapless silk wool dress with draped bodice and kept everything to a minimum, to let the dress shine. Stunning earrings were adorned by both, as well as neutral pumps - though Jacquetta's sandals have a slight gold sheen. We don't witness Georgina's handbag, but Jacquetta's embellished gunmetal Marchesa clutch looks pretty cool. Who wore it best?

Celeb Style: Halle Berry

FabSugar — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 10:30:22 -0800

Halle Berry joined Nicole Richie at the March of Dimes annual Celebration of Babies event in LA over the weekend. While Nicole opted for a boho maxi, Halle looked sexy sleek in a navy blue Yigal Azrouel number and smokey suede pumps. I love the way the dress melts over her curves and shows just enough cleavage. A diamond bracelet, diamond-studded earrings, and a delicate necklace provide the right amount of sparkle.

Vanessa is living her college life to the fullest. Besides getting into rompy threesomes, the Gossip Girl also enjoys showing us her selection of unique and vibrant ensembles. While strolling NYC, Vanessa kept warm in a cozy colorful plaid jacket by Diane von Furstenberg, paired with a blue embroidered dress by Nanette Lepore. Black opaque tights shield her from the Fall chill, while gray ruched boots further her bohemian 'fit.

Girls on Film: Daria Werbowy, Vogue Nippon, Nov. '09

FabSugar — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 05:50:22 -0800

I will never tire of Daria Werbowy's amazingness. For Vogue Nippon's November issue, the Ukrainian-Canadian model strutted her stuff in an editorial dubbed "Girl of the Golden Field." Now this is how Fall dressing should be: cozy sweaters, sherpa-lined leather jackets, ponchos, boots, and fur coats. Daria continues to astonish me with her scintillating bod - boobage alert! - and piercing blue eyes. Of course, her hair is tousled to perfection – Bella, how can I get this look? Furthermore, the prairie backdrop is beyond beautiful. Keep clicking for more Daria action . . .

Trend Alert: Berry-Stained Leather

FabSugar — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 14:00:22 -0700

Congratulations red leather and relatives, you are officially noncheesy anymore. Berry-stained leather, as exhibited by the ravenous Rachel Weisz in Spain, is utterly appetizing. Of course, a lot depends on the accompaniments. Weisz smartly wore her smooth berry leather jacket with an adorable blue floral dress - both Marc Jacobs Resort - and killer black Barbara Bui suede sandals; she did no wrong. Keeping things feminine and unique will let your raspberry, blueberry, or tayberry piece pop.

Trend Alert: Big Blooms

FabSugar — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 14:00:22 -0800

It's time to scout your holiday dress of the season, and how can you resist the sweet smell of big blooms? Leighton sparkled in this blue, brush-painted rose silk bow front dress with patent belt by Prabal Gurung. If feminine and frilly is your thing, this is your lucky season. Oversize rosettes and flower motifs are not only in style, but quite classic, endlessly pretty. I say go dramatic or go home; I'm sure Leighton would second my emotion.

Trend Alert: Patterned Tights

FabSugar — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 05:50:22 -0700

I've heard friends say they're one of those things that are fun in theory, but dicey in reality. And don't plain black tights seem so . . . boring? Exhibit A: Diane Kruger at the ELLE Women in Hollywood awards. Even though her Balenciaga dress had a marbelized print, she opted for Swiss dot hose and a hot pink clutch. Sometimes more is more, and that means you shouldn't hesitate to whip out those striped, dotted, or zigzag tights you've been jonesing to wear. Patterned tights add depth, texture, and spunk to any ensemble.

Trend Alert: Crisp Cobalt

FabSugar — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 09:00:08 -0700

Victoria Beckham was probably so proud to see Blake Lively donning her stunning creation at the Saks Fifth Avenue soiree in NYC. It doesn't take much for the Gossip Girl to shine, but I can't help but be blinded by the crisp cobalt hue. This bold blue is once again popular, and I can see why. It's simultaneously daring, yet sleek, and complements every skin tone.

Try this bright blue on a dress, like Blake does, or pair it with neutral separates. I've always been a fan of wearing it with gray for a downtown sophistication.
