Celebrity Style: Monet Mazur

FabSugar — Thu, 21 May 2009 03:50:22 -0700

Sportif is way underrated. Check out actress Monet Mazur dropping by Solstice Sunglasses for a little try on. Yes, you should get those red Carreras! Her cropped khaki pants are perfectly utilitarian, while her black gladiators and draped tank are solid accompaniments. Her orange strapped crossbody bag adds a punch, while eclectic jewelry provides subtle flair. Too cool.

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Girls-Only Pajama Jammie Jam

FabSugar — Tue, 19 May 2009 02:50:22 -0700

My expecting friend hosted a girls-only slumber party a couple weeks ago. Once the baby arrives, she'll be swamped so she wanted to spend some good ol' girl time before her delivery. We had so much fun watching movies and gabbing the night away! I asked you to help me put together a cute cozy outfit I can hang out and sleep in.

I started you off with this Tilly's Splatter Headband Set ($5) because it kept my hair away from my face during the pillow fights. Let's see the top three looks!

Look #1, created by hil34, looks super comfy - thanks for remembering the slippers.

Sherpa Slide-on Slippers	Splendid Cotton racer-back tank
Alternative Apparel Burnout Short Sleeve Tunic Top in Moss	Love Drawstring Sweatpant - Grey
Dooney & Bourke 'DB Sport Ducks - Victoria' Tote	Splatter Ponio Headband 5-Piece Set ($5)

Look #2, created by Whiplash, includes the cutest sleep mask; the long eyelashes are adorable.

Fab Gift Guide: Fab Thank Yous

FabSugar — Wed, 17 Dec 2008 06:00:22 -0800

Fab thank yous are gifts for people who help you out on the regular. I'm talking about the loyal dog walker, friendly door man, or nice neighbor. For example, try a cool headband for your stylish manicurist or a luxe wallet for your accountant. No doubt my dog walker would appreciate this Fab Dooney & Bourke Umbrella ($49); it will stylishly protect her from the rain while she walks my sweet Annabelle.

I Want Them All: Three Great Hobos

FabSugar — Fri, 04 Aug 2006 02:14:12 -0700

I have been dreaming about this gorgeous Bordeaux colored hobo from the Fall/Winter 2006/2007 line from Balenciaga since I first wrote about it a few weeks ago.

This bag is still out there, tempting me, for $989. I could buy it here.

Recently I have also come across a couple of other, lower cost hobos that I also really like and wanted to share.

To see them, read more

Dooney & Bourke Candy Print Bag: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Wed, 21 Mar 2007 13:51:22 -0700

I appreciate Dooney & Bourke's effort over the past couple years to reach out to a younger customer with colorful prints and too cute spokesmodels like the current Emma Roberts and our fave Lindsay Lohan. But a candy print might be taking things a little too Willy Wonka for me. This Dooney & Bourke Candy Print Bag was found by CGW in the Love It or Hate It? group. What are your thoughts?

A Few Fab Words With the Newest Sex and the City Star, Jennifer Hudson

FabSugar — Thu, 15 May 2008 08:00:22 -0700

At a recent press junket, the stars of the Sex and the City movie spilled everything we want to hear about their characters, on-screen wardrobes, as well as their personal style. I know you're dying to hear what the veteran foursome had to say, but let's first start with newcomer Jennifer Hudson.

Did you take away any new fashion tips?

It was amazing working with her [Patricia Field]. That was an experience in itself, just watching her work. She sits at the desk so carelessly, and just says, give me that, throw that with this, and this with that, and comes up with this huge concoction of a Sex and the City outfit that is fabulous. You’re sitting there like, "OK, I didn’t know you could put those shoes with that and that color with this," and it's just a whole brand new level of fashion to me. It definitely makes you want to experiment and that’s what I try to do.

Are you going to get a lifetime supply of rent-a-bags [from Bag Borrow or Steal]?

You know what? I hope so. I’m thinking if you all write about it, then maybe that will happen!

What was your first designer bag and pair of shoes?

I know my first designer bag was Dooney and Bourke, if that counts. I can’t remember shoes. I have so many bags and so many pairs of shoes I could open a store. I have to move out of myself because I have too many pairs. I wear them if I have to, but I’m not a shoe fan at all. I love bags. My top bags are my Jimmy Choo, my Valentino, and my YSL; those three are my favorites.

Do you do a lot of shopping while you are in NY?

Yes, I do. I have a shopping problem. I need Carrie Bradshaw’s closet, the one that’s in the movie. That’s exactly what I need. And it's still not enough. So I need one just for my shoes, and one for all my clothes. Now I have to move out of my house because I have too many clothes. In this business, you can really only wear it once. So once I wear something, and then it's like, I’ll hold onto this, and then before you know it, it piles up and piles up.

Fab Finds of the Week: Red Rage

FabSugar — Mon, 12 Nov 2007 05:00:22 -0800

You ladies are no angels. In fact, I might be inclined to think that some of you are out to do the devil's work, judging by how overcome with red your Fab Finds are this week. Or maybe you're just huge Valentino fans - red is his color of choice. Or is it just that you have the urge to be a lady in red? No matter; when it comes down to it, such a bold color packs a nice punch on a dreary Fall day.

The Fab Finder of the week is cfoley11, who found this gorgeous one-shouldered dress. Every week the Fab Finder I announce Monday morning will receive either a TeamSugar or FabSugar baby tee shirt. I thoroughly enjoy perusing your Fab Finds every week, so dare to be a Fab Finding trendsetter and you just might win a Sugar tee!

Fab Finding Follow Up: A "Bottom Heavy" Figure

FabSugar — Fri, 13 Apr 2007 15:55:55 -0700

Earlier this week I announced that we decided to make it a priority to address a very important fashion category: dressing for your body type. It would be silly for a fashion magazine, or blog, to think that all women were created equal, body-wise, so we're here to help and answer your questions.

DearSugar recently gave some sound advice to a reader who was a self-proclaimed "bottom heavy" woman. As well, the comments on her post offered even more advice - brava ladies! I started you off with this
Lane Bryant Flouncy gored skirt, $40. We all know black is the first color that comes to mind when seeking slimming and this skirt has a slight A line & feminine ruffle.

I asked you all to go Fab Finding for a great outfit that disguises a "bottom heavy figure." To see all the bottom heavy Fab Finds click here. Let's take a look!

Look #1, found by RCLdesigngirl flatters the legs with these kitten heel Enzo Angiolini 'Sun' Pumps and draws attention to this Dooney & Bourke 'Zebra Large' Sac.

Look #2, found by sigmaration is very insightful. She herself is a pear-shaped woman and is 1-2 sizes smaller on top than on bottom. She recommends these Striped Houston uncuffed trouser at Lane Bryant paired with this Twinkle plaid short-sleeved blouse at Lane Bryant; flutter sleeves help balance out wide hips and thighs by balancing out the body. Thanks for the tips sigmaration!

Look #3, found by lilxmissxmolly is sophisticated with this Halogen 'Adra' Darted Waist Top and accentuates the waist with this MICHAEL Michael Kors 'Santorini' Chain Belt.
