Celebrity Style: Nicky Hilton

FabSugar — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 16:59:13 -0700

Nicky Hilton arrived at the OP campaign launch in Hollywood emitting a California cool vibe in a tie-dye skirt from Charley 5.0, white tank, and navy blazer. The juxtaposition between beach and chic is perfect for the fun event and I like how she accessorized with white patent peep-toe sandals, funky studded bracelets, and stacked rings. Her handbag of choice? Chanel, of course. I never thought to pair tie-dye with tailored separates - thanks for the tip Nicky!

I Want This Wardrobe: Gossip Girl, Blair Waldorf

FabSugar — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 04:00:22 -0700

Gossip Girl was back this week with a flock of fashionable playwright attire, but what really caught my eye was Blair's post-show ensemble. Despite major drama, the Queen Bee kept her composure in a beautiful, lace-embellished top by Nanette Lepore and equally stunning beaded skirt by Diane von Furstenberg. For accessories, Blair donned a silky rosette headband by Jennifer Behr, black pumps, and her favorite ruby heart ring. Always prim, always perfect!

On Our Radar: Saks's New Department Is Made For the Working Woman

FabSugar — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 06:00:22 -0800

Saks knows wearing the latest five-inch platforms to your job isn't the most work-appropriate. That's why they've come up with a new department, dubbed WEAR, specifically catering to the stylish working woman. It's filled with hip, everyday clothes boasting a load of popular contemporary brands such as Elie Tahari, Tory Burch, M Missoni, and DKNY, to name a few.

“There has been an underserved market of style-conscious working women, maturing contemporary customers, and women who pay attention to fashion and want to integrate it into their lives in a sophisticated way,” said Joseph Boitano of Saks. Think of it as runway meets real life. Awesome. Keep your eyes peeled for its Spring debut across the country!

Fab's January Most Wanted

FabSugar — Wed, 02 Jan 2008 07:00:22 -0800

On New Year's Eve I was driving home to start getting ready for my evening festivities. I couldn't help but be distracted by the gorgeous sunset that accompanied my peaceful drive. Luckily, like the responsible driver I strive to be, I was able to multi-task and admire and drive at the same time. The sky of pastels had a soothing effect that filled me with hope and happiness going into the new year. And so, my picks this month are a mix of things that make me happy and things I find I simply need to kick the year off with. Nothing crazy, a couple things colorful - still trying to honor my New Year Fabalutions.

This Foley + Corinna Handbags Linen City Tote ($372) is the perfect buddy to add some metallic to Winter and bring me into Spring don't you think?
Ever since I chopped my hair off, I've been into barrettes again. These Forever 21 Pyramid Stud Hair Clips ($3) are cute, but tough.
Spring is on my mind and this Tory Burch Stefani Voile Tunic ($275) gets me revved up for sunnier times.
I'm still recovering from holiday debt so I'm waiting for this bright and sassy bebe 3/4 Sleeve Empire Sweater Dress ($98) to go on sale.
Feathers are fun and fabulous. This Elie Tahari Nicolette Skirt ($448) has just the right amount of plumage for a feather novice like me.
The weather is frightful but that doesnt mean style has to suffer. I'm swooping up these Belle by Sigerson Morrison Black Patent boots (on sale for $195, originally $390), which are perfect for everyday.

Kristen Bell sure has been out on the town a lot lately! She was dressed in a gorgeous camel coat when she arrived at the opening of the new Elie Tahari boutique in Beverly Hills last night, then took it off to reveal a pretty embellished gray top underneath. I have to give it to her, if she's going to show up everywhere, at least she does it with a string of fashion hits!

Vince Camuto Mabel Pump, $115	Banana Republic Feminine military coat, $228

Here is a piece that has prim, Victorian-era roots, but can be modern and sexy too, making it perfect for the office. A frill-necked blouse is a classic piece that can be worn from day, buttoned up, into the night, go on, unbutton a couple more.

A Look Fit for Jude Law

FabSugar — Fri, 22 Sep 2006 13:09:13 -0700

In light of the recent news about Britney's "manny" going to work for Jude Law, I couldn't help but laugh today when I stumbled upon this outfit by Elie Tahari.

What does this cute, feminine ensemble have to do with Jude Law, you ask? Why, because it's comprised of the Sadie Blouse and Sienna Pants, available for $298 and $248 here. Somehow, in one ensemble, Tahari has managed to reference both Jude's ex Sadie Frost and his on-again-off-again flame Sienna Miller. Considering Jude has been known to cheat with his nanny, perhaps this is the perfect look for his new "manny."

Trend Alert: Silver Shock

FabSugar — Fri, 05 Oct 2007 08:00:22 -0700

All this time I have been drawn towards the opulence of gold and I forgot about the power of silver shock. While I am a golden girl when it comes to jewelry, I love metallics just as much as the next fashionista - if not more. A shock of silver is more sci-fi and glam rock than gold though. So, to tame your look and avoid looking too costumey, pair your silver shock with modern pieces - a cool blazer and organic denim. If you are going for the Barbarella look though - Halloween costume alert! - glittery eye shadow is a must.
