Trend Alert: Laced-Up

FabSugar — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 04:50:22 -0800

Kate Moss doesn't usually stray away from her sleek modus operandi, but when she does, it's just as amazing. While out celebrating her bro's birthday in London, the Super donned a pair of funky lace-up jeans. It's very Guns N' Roses circa '90, and I love how the lacing goes all the way up her legs. I suggest offsetting the old school vibe by pairing these pants with a decadent chubby - a la Kate - or fancy embellished top. If the full-legged corset is too much for your taste, opt for pants with less lacing. No matter what, don't forget the badass heels and rock star attitude.

Trend Alert: Winter Retreat

FabSugar — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 15:30:22 -0800

It's bound to happen. Everyone starts to hibernate as the days get shorter and the temp gets colder. However, that's no excuse to dress drab. I suggest making your Winter retreat a fashionable one via buffalo plaid, sherpa-lined denim, laced boots, and boyfriend jeans. Think Paul Bunyan, or rather, Paulina Bunyan, when styling your warm warfare. Now, all I need is a cabin, fireplace, hot cocoa, and a snuggly stud muffin.

10 Crazy Funky Jeans

There are some funkier-than-funky jeans out there right now. What started with a few holes has now taken off into all-out shreds, colorful paint splatters, psychedelic tie-dye, see-through mesh, lace-insets, and so on. One of my favorite denim brands, Siwy, takes the prize for designing some of the most daring denim - these Sheer Mesh Skinny Jeans ($242) are '80s sexy but only fit for bold fashionistas. There are way more crazy funky jeans out there, so click through to gawk.

Trend Alert: Studded Shorts

FabSugar — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 06:50:22 -0700

We all own a pair of denim cutoffs, but what about studded shorts? Like studly vests, they add a unique rocker-girl vibe to your overall look and are a quick and simple DIY. Personally, I refuse to pay top dollar for such a fleeting yet cute trend. That's why I headed to my local fabric shop for a pack of studs and a glue gun. $6 and 20 minutes later, presto chango - studded shorts!

Celebrity Style: Renee Zellweger

FabSugar — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 10:00:53 -0700

Renee Zelllweger is a red carpet pro, but seeing her on the streets is fun, too. The actress was spotted in Hollywood looking part casual, part dressy, and all cool. She went strictly business up top with a long black blazer, Ray Ban aviators, and a Tod's hobo bag. On bottom, she played around with the denim nip/tuck and black pointy pumps. Do I peep some skin underneath that blazer? Hot!

Sneak Peek! Current/Elliott Fall '09

FabSugar — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 05:50:22 -0700

For Fall '09, Emily Current and Meritt Elliott mixed together inspiration from circus and Victorian life to create a quirky cool collection of denim. Seriously, where else can you a find a rugged Victorian jacket? For the upcoming season, the duo's famous boyfriend jeans were nowhere in sight, and instead replaced with an array of skinny jeans and wide-legged cuts in dark vintage washes. Pretty cute, but what really caught my eye was their dope selection of denim jackets and tops. My favorite piece has to be this perfectly tailored Sargent jacket - I adore the shrunken fit and greenish gray wash. Fashion epiphany! Current/Elliott just inspired me to wear more denim up top and less on bottom.

Trend Alert: Boyfriend Shirts

FabSugar — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 06:50:22 -0700

Not so fast, Rih! Let me examine your cool top before you rush off to dinner. I love how boyfriend shirts give off a sexy, masculine appeal. In fact, I have a couple from a past boyfriend that have lasted me longer than our relationship. Ha. When wearing this looser cut, keep the rest of your outfit feminine via accessories, a la Rihanna - skinny jeans, skirts, or tailored shorts. Word to the wise: check out the men's section for a greater variety. A men's extra-small fits me perfectly . . .

Current/Elliott's Deadstock Denim

FabSugar — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 13:00:22 -0700

Emily Current and Meritt Elliott are flipping the switch this Fall with a new denim line called Deadstock. Unlike their namesake line, which is known for its deconstructed and distressed styles, Deadstock is the complete opposite with clean lines and a preserved feel. “Meritt and I were wearing boyfriend jeans every single day, and we kept saying, ‘I want to be a rockabilly. I want to wear dark jeans with saddle shoes,’ ” said Current. “That was how the idea started.” The line - wholesaling between $58 and $90 - will be available in July at high-end retailers. The '50s-, '60s-, and '70s-inspired collection will offer skinny, wide-legged, and the duo's iconic boyfriend cuts. “[Real] deadstock is a little stiff and sometimes not as flattering on the body. We cheated a bit,” said Elliot. Another hit for Current/Elliot?
