What Is Disco?

Group messaging was all the rage at this year's SXSWi, and now Google's recently acquired Slide Inc. is throwing itself into the ring with Disco, a free group messaging app for the iPhone. Launched late last week, Disco allows you to set up messaging groups, then send and receive SMS texts among each other in one clean and organized fashion. The app may be free, but text messaging rates will Read more

Choo Goes Disco

Leave it to the house of Choo to create a disco-infused shoe. You ready to get down? Jimmy Choo's Zap Sandal ($2,495) not only looks supersonic, it is — it lights up when you walk, er, dance in them. Can you believe they are already out of stock? I can; when Choo goes disco, I want to go, too. Read more

Paint It Black — Fab's 30-Day Fashion Challenge! Modern Disco

I’m taking it back to the disco era with my black silk halter jumpsuit. This piece has been my stylish sidekick ever since I purchased it at a local San Francisco boutique a while back — I've worn it to a wedding, an engagement party, and on a date. And this evening, it's accompanying me on a girls' night out! So as not to be too ‘70s, I modernized my look via a black blazer, caged Read more

FABTV: Saturday Night Fever Dance Scene


Updated 09/29/08 2:25 PM · Posted by FabSugar · 9 comments

There's nothing sexier than a man with moves. Dance moves, that is. So many people cite Saturday Night Fever as a favorite movie, but really, it gets kinda depressing towards the end, no? I guess they're just as romanced by the disco and the dance as I am. I do have an obsession with disco — what I would give for one night at Studio 54. What can I say, I love the night life. But back to Read more

Fab Redux: LBDisco

I recently had a long day of wine tasting in Napa Valley, got home around 7 p.m., and had to get ready to go back out again. As fun as a social life is, it can be exhausting and challenging. Challenging, in the closet arena. I definitely have some go-to items for lazy Sundays — jeans, moccasins, cardigans — but a Friday night on the town? So I grabbed my black Corey Lynn Calter maxi dress, Read more

FABTV: Diana Ross Featuring Michael Jackson, "Upside Down"


Updated 07/22/08 11:10 AM · Posted by FabSugar · 4 comments

There are too many performers I either missed or still have yet to witness live. Jimi Hendrix, Elvis, and Nirvana are amongst the ones I will never see because, well, they are no longer. Led Zeppelin, Bjork, and Diana Ross are still on my list. Oh, Diana. Such a Fab diva. I love this quickie performance she did, with a fun Michael Jackson cameo at the end. From her sexy white Halston-esque dress Read more

So You Think You Can Disco Dance?

Well, that is because you have not seen Sven and Helga! (That's what I like to call them anyway.) We posted this vid a long time ago, but it seems that Diesel jazzed it up to enhance its fabulosity and to shill some sneakers. Sven and Helga so thoughtfully walk you through some basic disco moves, my favorite being the perpetual pelvic thrust. And when their friends get up and the whole room's Read more

We've bedazzled cell phones, iPods, Bluetooth headsets . . . and now the latest item being blinged out is the earplug. The Royal National Institute for the Deaf (RNID) has launched a competition to find an earplug that's socially acceptable. "Because of Bluetooth headsets and iPods, people are getting more used to the idea of putting things in their ears that are fashionable," said a Read more
