Joy's Joyous Maxis

FabSugar — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 04:00:22 -0700

Did you know Joy Bryant has worn over 20 maxis on the red carpet? That's a lot of maxis! While the effortlessly gorgeous actress loves jeans for everyday life, she clearly favors maxis for night. Bold, understated, print, solid, flowy, fitted - she's done it all. And her maxi designer of choice? Missoni, of course, the designer of her (maxi) wedding gown. But she has also been spotted wearing Zac Posen, Alexander McQueen, Pucci, and Bally. Take a trip down the red carpet to witness Joy's joyous maxis from 2004 until today.

2010 Spring Milan Fashion Week Fab Roundup!

FabSugar — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 04:50:22 -0700

Even under a scrunched time line, Milan Fashion Week stunned with numerous beautiful collections. In this roundup, I highlight some of my favorite designers, including Versace, Ferragamo, Fendi, and Armani, to name a few. I admit, Dolce & Gabbana's collection was my favorite, but that's not stopping me from showing you Bottega's soft and swirly frock, Gucci's cut-out wonder, and Emilio Pucci's magical prints. I can't seem to resist this tropical bohemian masterpiece from Etro. Simply a-mazing.

Trend Alert: Layered Halters

FabSugar — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 05:00:08 -0700

I love layering, but it gets a little tedious rummaging through my drawers for the "right" tank or tees. That why this new style, layered halters, is so clever. They take the work out of having to think about what to layer, and you'll never have to hunt through your dresser again. Even better, the styles available are more artsy and unique. Functional and phenomenal? I'll take it.

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Hitting the Slopes

FabSugar — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 15:00:08 -0800

It's been hectic for me these past couple months. After all the Fashion Week festivities, I'm promising myself a relaxing ski trip in Tahoe. I can't wait to kick back, drink hot chocolate in front of the fire, and hit the slopes. It's still a couple weeks away but it doesn't hurt to plan ahead. I asked you to help me find a cute cabin look for my little vacay in the mountains.

I started you off with these American Apparel Ear Muffs ($20) because the bright color will make it easy to spot me as I swoosh my way down the hill. Let's see what you conjured up!

Guess the Sassy Handbag Shape!

FabSugar — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 09:00:09 -0800

Last week, I asked you to guess the hot heel shape, so it's only fitting that I test your handbag knowledge. This one is a bit trickier since handbag shapes can get confusing. My advice? Go with your gut instinct and don't overthink it. Good luck and have fun!

Question 1 of 8

Can you guess what this bag style is called?

Fab Gift Guide: Stylish Sis

FabSugar — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 15:00:08 -0800

The fun thing about shopping for a stylish sis is that it's like shopping for yourself. After all, you and her are two fashionable peas in pod, right? Such a cool sibling warrants a unique gift. I suggest choosing a fun novelty item or splurging on something she wouldn't buy for herself. An experimentally rad sis would love this Forever 21 Paisley Triangle Scarf ($7). Can we share?

Check this: Emilio Pucci has (finally) opened up its virtual doors - yay! For the first time in history, Pucci's collection is just a click away from being yours. "The Virtual Boutique is a key store for our brand as we will finally be able to offer customers on a global scale the opportunity to access the complete Emilio Pucci world," said Emilio Pucci's general manager, Didier Drouet. The site is easy to maneuver and is filled with Pucci's vast selection of clothing, handbags, and accessories. Swoon. We can always look, right?
