Fab Finding Follow-Up: Jump, Fab, Jump

FabSugar — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 08:00:08 -0700

My friend was feeling silly, so for her birthday, she invited us all to go jumping. Jumping? Yes. We went jumping on huge trampoline floors and walls at Sky High Sports. I obviously needed to be comfortable, but I also wanted to look as cute as possible.

I started you off with this Delia's Paris Tee ($25) because it'll help me look fun and chic. Let's see your creations!

Look #1, created by nikkeeb, is très chic but still sporty. The harem pants are perfecto.

Cheap & Chic: Sleek Tie Dresses

FabSugar — Fri, 21 Aug 2009 03:00:22 -0700

Are you the owner of a sleek tie dress? Cate Blanchett, here at the Audi LightHouse showroom launch in Sydney, is. Her silk self-tie dress is just loose enough, and the matching belt accentuates her waist without suffocating it. How about we follow in her fashionable footsteps and try some sleek tie dresses for ourselves? The good news is, a self-tie belt isn't written in stone. For variation, you can replace it with a different one for contrast. Below are a few affordable options. Cate's exotic gold accessories unfortunately not included.

15 Denim Pieces (Under $100) You Need Now!

FabSugar — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 05:50:22 -0700

Denim is a necessity, no matter the time of year. But with Summer in full effect, we should embrace a lighter weight denim, perhaps something with color, with pizzazz. I already recommended shoes, bags, bikinis, and jewels you need now, but what would your warm days be without some hot denim cutoffs, a clean jean jacket, a sweet denim romper, or a cool denim vest? Not so hot. What are you waiting for?

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Happy Birthday, Marilyn!

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 06:00:08 -0700

Did you know it was Marilyn Monroe's birthday on June 1? Were the bombshell still with us, she would have been 83 years old! In honor of the fabulous icon, I asked you to create sassy outfits she would have worn. There were so many gorgeous looks but I could only feature three.

I started you off with this Delia's Susanna Circle Skirt ($35). I can see her having fun in it, like she did in her white halter dress.

Look #1, created by miknat93, is sexy and luxurious, so Marilyn would have loved it.

The Look For Less: J. Crew Space-Dyed Cardigan

FabSugar — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 09:00:08 -0700

Just when I thought I owned all the cardigans a girl could ever want, I came across this cool J. Crew Space-Dyed Cardigan ($108). The burnout design is innovative and I love the long, lean cut. It's a timeless investment, but sadly, my budget won't allow for it. During times like these, improvising is the only way to go.

This Delia's Burnout Cardigan ($35) is more in my price range. There aren't any buttons but I can easily cinch in the flyaway front with a slim belt. It's such a great deal, right?

Trend Alert: Orangesicle

FabSugar — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 06:00:22 -0700

Doesn't actress Carla Gugino look like a sweet orangesicle in her Rachel Roy sheath dress and Jimmy Choo Samoa sandals? Hear me out. Orange is not the most obvious Spring color, but give it a try. This happy hue looks great against a sun-kissed glow and is also a refreshing alternative to reds and pinks. Don't get me wrong, I adore berry hues, but orange is just so . . . juicy.

Celebrity Style: Kate Bosworth

FabSugar — Fri, 19 Dec 2008 11:00:22 -0800

One thing is certain: Kate Bosworth loves and therefore lives in her Topshop acid-wash jeans and red Chloe buckle boots. It's admirable - despite being photographed constantly, she rewears her favorite pieces. This time around, she wore them while hanging out with her model boyfriend at The Grove in LA. She used a subtle leopard tee and a navy sweater to temper her bold bottom half. Her Ray-Ban aviators and Chloe Saskia bag add further funk to the mix.
