Color Theory: Down With Brown

CasaSugar — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 09:00:11 PST

Since this week is an extended holiday weekend, I thought it would be nice to celebrate the holiday by focusing on colors of the harvest. Today, as part of my series of Color Theory posts, we're going to look at welcoming, sensual brown.

Before and After: So Long, Dated Wallpaper

CasaSugar — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 07:00:55 PDT

Su Casa member Kimpossible finally got around to updating her kitchen, or at least starting the process, after three years on the back burner. She began with the easiest, and often the most effective change, paint! As you can see, her wallpaper was dated and really didn't do much for the room. So, a warm coat of chocolate brown paint came to the rescue, and made a drastic difference. She also added some counter stools to match, a shelf for spices, and a window valance. Want to see the after photo? Then

Look of the Day: Beige Hearts Brown

FabSugar — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 06:00:22 PST

A sandstorm hit the Golden Globes red carpet and now it's attacked neonbee. What I'd like to point out here is that beige hearts brown. Beige, being a neutral color, needs a rich hue like brown to plush it up. And I love how she belted her wrap cardigan for added interest. Smart thinking!

Here's what she has on:

Cardigan: Gap
Dress: From Hong Kong
Tights: Urban Outfitters
Shoes: Steve Madden

Congrats to neonbee!

Dress Me Up: Full of Fall

FabSugar — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 08:00:08 PST

Donna Karan's Fall collection is the epitome of Autumn. Warm browns, vivid rust, olive green, terra cotta, mustard, and burgundy were the plush colors the designer used to spice up her line. Now is the perfect time to draw inspiration from it and fill our closets with similar pieces. You can even get inspired from the changing colors of the leaves outside. Stick to one or two colors at most. I've found that gray tights are the perfect accent to any autumnal color. If you're still frazzled, study the Fall collections, see my suggestions below, and be full of Fall.

Look of the Day: Brown Sugar

FabSugar — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 04:00:22 PDT

I don't have a lot of brown in my closet, so it impresses me when someone pulls the color off right. Jezrel chose head-to-toe brown for a tea party she recently attended. Say, doesn't she look as sweet as brown sugar? What really solidifies the look is her generous use of gold accessories. Brown and gold: a match made in fashion heaven.

Here's what she has on:

Dress: Unknown
Belt: Joseph of London
Shoes: Rene Caovilla
Bag: Vintage Salvatore Ferragamo

Congrats to jezrel!

Congrats to RaincityChicky!

Celebrity Style: Gabrielle Union

FabSugar — Thu, 26 Jul 2007 13:10:22 PDT

The Lucky Magazine party brought out a lot of stylish actresses, including Gabrielle Union, clad in a rich sequined Foley + Corinna dress (the soiree was dually for the launch of the label's resort collection). The chocolate brown and the fun sequin pattern really flatters her flawless skin. What a cutie!

Tommy Hilfiger Fall 2012

FabSugar — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 21:39:25 PST

Tommy Hilfiger set the mood for his collection this evening at the Park Avenue Armory creating an Autumnal park paradise complete with wooden benches, pretty Fall trees, The Beatles playing in the backdrop, and even gravel to sink our booties into. As expected, the designer showcased his classic American style, but this time, interjected a completely modern spin to his mix via silk cable-knit printed dresses, luxe leather riding pants, and plenty of Glen plaid suits to go around. The classic pea coat was treated with a brilliant patent finish and trench coats received a smart colorblock detail on the sleeves. There were also plenty of quilted pieces, suede shirtdresses, A-line skirts, and tailored hunting jackets emoted a regal equestrian feel. Hilfiger exemplified the perfect mix of old and new - and we're loving every bit of it.

Trends: Plaid, patent leather, wrap skirts, military, quilting.
Colors: Olive green, brown, burgundy, black, purple, mustard yellow.
Key Piece: We loved Hilfiger's silk cable-knit printed dresses.
Accessories: Knee-high boots, quilted messenger bags, pony hair bags, equestrian riding hats.
Who Would Wear It: Girls who crave classic style with a twist like front row attendee Charlize Theron. We can also see Reese Witherspoon and Cate Blanchett in some of these pieces.
