You listening? Target has announced two amazing accessories collaborations: a hat collection with Eugenia Kim and a footwear line with Cynthia Vincent. This will be Cynthia Vincent's first time designing a budget-friendly line and Eugenia's second, following her teamup with Urban Outfitters. Details are to be determined, but we do know both collections will bow online and in stores on April 18 - nice!

Trend Alert: Wild Flats

FabSugar — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 03:00:22 -0700

While I love to travel, really, I just want to wear comfy clothes. I've always admired Cameron's jetsetting style - jeans, cotton layers, sick luggage - and, when she recently landed at Heathrow, a Burberry wrap, Chanel bag, and Lanvin's turquoise and black leopard flats. When you're heading to adventure, throw a pair of wild flats into the mix. When jet lag strikes, your exotic puppies will cool you down.

On Our Radar: Cynthia Vincent Launches Bags

FabSugar — Mon, 09 Mar 2009 02:00:22 -0700

The cool thing about Cynthia Vincent is she designs with the functional girl in mind. For example, I own a pair of her flats and not only are they super stylish, but comfy too. That's why I'm psyched to announce Vincent will be launching a handbag collection come Fall.

“I wanted to make bags that are comfortable, easy and useful,” said Vincent. “The kind of bags you wear all the time. I approached them like I do the clothes - by taking classics and making them new and interesting but not so trendy that they’re out one season. I wanted them to last, the way my clothes can.”

The collection, which is a mix of Taiwanese, Indian, and American West influences, will range from $200 to $500. Looking forward to seeing the whole shebang!

Have you ever been to a boutique opening party? They're so much fun. Meeting new people, rubbing elbows with local designers, and drinking free bubbly really tickles my fancy.

This weekend, my friend Jessica is throwing an opening party for her first boutique. It's going to be intimate and filled with special discounts - what more can a girl ask for? I asked you to help me find an outfit that will dazzle but won't steal the spotlight from my pal. I was looking for something artistic, funky, and modern. Let's see what you all came up with!

Look #1, created by EllaB, includes some amazing accessories. Check out those crazy heels!

Fab Site: BocNYC.com

FabSugar — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 08:00:22 -0800

Manhattan boutique BOC may be situated in a loft, but the clothes it stocks are hardly lofty . . . just straightforward and cool. With contemporary labels like Alexander Wang, Cynthia Vincent, Rebecca Taylor and J Brand, what more could you expect? An equally cool online boutique, BocNYC.com, that's what.

The Look For Less: Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent Cree Fringe Flat Thong Sandal

FabSugar — Mon, 04 May 2009 01:00:22 -0700

If fringe had a season it would have to be Summer. I can't think of a better time for me to rock this trend with shorts, skirts, jeans, you name it. Take for instance this Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent Flat Fringe Sandal ($204). The short, sleek fringe is the ideal mix of hippie-chic and city glam but I'm not willing to pay that much for such a statement piece.

This Wanted Fringe Sandal ($39) is more up my alley. It's much cheaper and the style is dead-on. What more can you ask for?

New York Fashion Week, Spring 2008: Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent

FabSugar — Thu, 13 Sep 2007 09:00:22 -0700

You may or may not know that many of the shows I saw at New York Fashion Week were not at the famed Bryant Park tents. A lot of designers showed off site, for a number of reasons; budget restrictions, an anti-sponsor preference or simply to present a no frills collection of clothes. We feature Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent often, so I was jazzed to see her Spring offerings...especially since the showroom setting was casual, filled with light and easy going.

With the feather weight clothes hanging on mannequins, Vincent also provided a viewing of her coveted shoes and accessories and an immense inspiration wall. The inspiration wall was really cool; images from Sofia Coppola's The Virgin Suicides, a young Patrick Dempsey, youthful beachy photo shoots via NYLON, all made sense of the clothes. And the clothes were in punchy colors of 70s suburbia with feminine details like jeweled necklines, crochet and ruffles. Sporty aspects like racer backs, hoods and tanks toughened things up. All in super soft fabrics like chiffon, silk, voile and jersey, I bet if models were wearing these pieces they would seriously flow. I guess we'll just have to wait for some of these to appear in Celebrity Styles to really know!

As for the accessories, buttery leather clutches were adorned with fun star-shaped beads. Colorful leather was preferred as was patent leather, on shoes that were colorblocked, banded and woven. Looks like Cynthia had fun with this collection!

The Look For Less: Gwen Stefani's Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent Maxi

FabSugar — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 02:00:22 -0700

An adorably pregnant Gwen Stefani recently played in the park with Gavin and Kingston. While Pop was examining her baby bump, I was more focused on what was covering that growing belly: Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent's ruffle maxi dress ($372). Mile-long maxis grazed the Spring runways; now let's have them sweep the streets without massacring our wallets!

Not only is this Arden B. Smocked Maxi Dress ($80, originally $118) similar to Gwen's maxi dress, it's also on sale! It has a mixed flower print and exudes the boho-chic vibe that the singer so loves. Preggers or not, this maxi will be a perfect Spring companion. Whether you wear it with heels or flats, make sure it touches the floor like Gwen's. Flooding in a maxi is not cute.
