Experimental chicks, take note. Creatures of Comfort has a sale section worth perusing. It stocks goodies from Grey Ant, VPL, Karen Walker, Vena Cava, and more.

One cool item up for grabs is this Vena Cava Dean Vest ($83, originally $276). It's minimalistic and a fresh take on the vest trend. It would be amazing with a gray tank and black trousers.

Fab Site: Creatures of Comfort

FabSugar — Tue, 13 Feb 2007 14:22:33 -0800

Inspired by founder Jade Lai and her globetrotting fashion adventures, Creatures of Comfort is a fab site that focuses on young international labels. A friend of mine was just visiting LA and told me about how much she enjoyed the flagship store and said I should check out the online store. Hard-to-find designers such as Emma Cook, Peter Jensen and Alexandre Herchcovitch can be found here. Also, Lai is debuting her own line this Spring.

While the site is very minimalistic it actually makes perusing very easy. You can search for items by keywords, by category (including sale), or by designer. Here are some of my picks:

Form Sheer Red Bamboo Jersey Top, $140.

hansel from basel solid knee high socks, $28.

Adele Clarke electric blue leather flats with suede cut-outs, on sale for $120, from $550 - but only a size 8 left!

Designer Spotlight: Eley Kishimoto

FabSugar — Mon, 29 Oct 2007 16:00:22 -0700

Since Mark Eley and Wakako Kishimoto, the London designers behind Eley Kishimoto, were recently named the new creative directors for Cacharel, I thought I would give you a better introduction to their style.

Known in some circles as the patron saints of print, Eley Kishimoto has been credited with influencing the resurgence of patterns on the international design scene. They partnered in the 1992 directly after graduating from Central Saint Martins design school, starting in womenswear but eventually expanding into bags, jewelery, sunglasses, and even home accessories.

Bold graphic prints combined with bright colors have always been their forte, brokering collaborations with the likes of Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, and Alexander McQueen. I've always been a fan of their lighthearted designs, and I'm really excited to see what they have in mind for Cacharel!

Eley Kishimoto is available at Creatures of Comfort and runs $19-$850.

Glitterati: Sabrina Dehoff

FabSugar — Thu, 21 Jun 2007 14:20:33 -0700

This glitterati gal started off working at French high-fashion companies Guy Laroche and Lanvin as a design assistant, but her dreams were elsewhere: Berliner Sabrina Dehoff wanted to make jewelry.

Since 2005, when she first started Sabrina Dehoff Accessories, Sabrina has come out with three collections: the Little Dreamers, which are fruit silhouettes in gold; the Little Helpers, a group of puffy leather hearts, guitars, panthers (my personal favorite), and mask necklaces; and, most recently, the Erratic Blocks from the Trip to the Moon. The animals in this collection are made of plastic detailed with gold.

Sabrina Dehoff necklaces can be purchased from Creatures of Comfort for $110-$294.
