Trendspotting: Gold Metallic Minidresses

Fab Community — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 07:50:22 -0800

Here's a great post FashionWithoutGuilt posted in our Cheap Chic and Frugalosity groups.

Rise and Shine! Metallics and mini dresses are back with a vengeance. The trend this season is sexy shine. As pictured, Eliza Dushku is showing us a great example of this trend done right. Forever 21 and American Apparel have some great alternatives we can all afford.

When choosing metallics there are a few things to consider:

The type of material of the garment: Fabrics with shine, if not chosen wisely, can come across as low quality. To prevent this, try the item on first. Is there a stretch to the fabric or do you just look like a roll of aluminum foil?
No shine overload: I am all for glitz but sometimes there can be too much. If you are going to incorporate shine into your ensemble, please use discretion. Do not ever wear this fabric as a top and bottom. The fashion police will be called immediately. Choose one garment and stick to it.
Have fun: Metallics are all about fun and making a statement. So own it and be fierce.

The Hottest and Coolest at the Spike Scream Awards

FabSugar — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 12:00:22 -0700

Wish I'd been there. The Spike Scream Awards gathered the hottest and coolest of the scary genre Saturday night. Twilight fans had Taylor Lautner to scream at, True Blood lovers cheered on the award-winning show, Vampire Diaries newbies flaunted their stuff, and directors Quentin Tarantino and J.J. Abrams received recognition. Style mavens Kate Bosworth and Liv Tyler were even there. Lush leather, short skirts, and severe black dominated, but no one can ever upstage Johnny Depp's eclectic element. Check it out!

Who Wore It Better? Kimberly Ovitz Camel Pleated Dress

FabSugar — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 13:00:22 -0700

It's hard to compete with quirky Chloe, but Eliza Dushku is making the attempt. They both wore Kimberly Ovitz's nude pleated dress, but in very different ways. Chloe went minimal, showing off her legs and cool caged Opening Ceremony boots. Eliza piled on the accessories: tights, patterned sandals, gilded jewelry, and a single black glove. Oh, and movie-star shades. Which attempt wins?

Here are my favorite looks: Ashlee Simpson in a champagne-colored Jill Stuart playsuit; Jordana Brewster in gold Reem Acra; Jessica Stroup in a chic LBD; Katie Cassidy in Balenciaga; and Eliza Dushku in sexy Herve Leger.

Celebrity Style: Eliza Dushku

FabSugar — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 15:00:22 -0800

GQ's Men of the Year celebration brought out a gaggle of gorgeous stars but Eliza Dushku stood out. The actress doesn't do many red carpets - it's nice to see her fresh face. For the occasion, Eliza sported Black Halo's pleated bodice cami dress, which fits her flawlessly. But what I'm more in love with are her gray suede ruffled Prada shoes. Sigh. Way to subtly match the dress with the shoes with the eyeshadow.

Black Halo Women's Sleeveless Double Crepe Pleated Bodice Camisole Dress - $370.00	Prada Ruffled Sandals - $890.00
Nepi - $25.00	Vineyard Pearl Drops - $28.00
St. Kilda Evie Sapphire Ring - $138.00
