Fab Finding Follow-Up: Coachella Bound!

FabSugar — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 04:00:22 PDT

Thanks to H&M, we're heading to the Coachella music fest tonight to check out some amazing bands and faboo fashions. The three-day festivities will be held in Indio, CA, so it's going to be hot and dusty. I asked you to create the perfect music festival 'fit. Kate Moss was a great source of inspiration - we love her boho-cool vest and effortless shorties.

Let's see what you came up with!

Look #1, by Catoon, is girlie cool. I love that kitschy playsuit.

While I'm not a huge football fan, I do love watching the Super Bowl. When else do I get to hang loose with friends and eat yummy Super Bowl finger food? This weekend, the Saints are going against the Colts for the big win. Since we won't be in Florida for the live action, I asked you to use your imaginations and dream up a fun tailgating outfit. Were you up for the challenge?

I started you off with this Alexander McQueen Skull Print Scarf ($799) because I want to show support to my favorite team - go Colts!

Look #1, created by maria212134, is perfect for the big game. Those studded Chucks are way awesome.

Fab Finding Follow-Up: New Job, New Wardrobe

FabSugar — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 05:50:22 PST

It's been a while since I heard any news about someone starting a brand spanking new job. Looks like the world is turning. A friend of mine recently started a new sales position which requires her to travel between LA and Seattle - very different climates. She's in dire need of some great airport-to-the-office outfit inspiration, so I asked you to lend her a hand.

I started you off with this ABS Light Grey Boyfriend Blazer ($295). It's crisper than a black blazer and can be thrown over anything. Let's see what you all came up with!

Look #1, created by nikkeeb, is smartly layered. The wrap cardigan will surely keep my friend cozy during flight.

FabSugar — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 04:50:22 PDT

I never tire of boutique parties. There's always amazing eye candy, yummy apps, and irresistible bubbly involved. A couple weeks ago, I attended an Armani party. The SF store had a special retrospective on gowns worn at awards shows and red carpet events - 'twas amazing. It was Armani, so I needed you to help me put together a simultaneously chic yet fun ensemble. Speaking of red carpet fashion, check out my Red Carpet Faceoff game - fun!

I started you off with these Emporio Armani Quartz and Pearl Earrings ($110). They're the ideal combination of sophistication and pizzazz. Let's see your creations!

Fab Finding Follow-Up: MJ Dance-Off

FabSugar — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 07:50:22 PDT

I've been wanting to host a Michael Jackson dance-off for a while now. What better way to pay tribute to the iconic pop star than to gather 'round some friends and dance the night away to his hot hits? I admit, I can't do the moonwalk, but I can do a mean shuffle. I asked you to imagine a super bad ensemble for such an occasion. Were you up to the challenge?

I started you off with this Maison Michel Felt Hat ($330) because it's totally rad. Let's take a look at what you conjured up!

Look #1, created by maria212134, is Michael Jackson defined; the band jacket is c-ute.

Fab Finding Follow-Up: No Doubt!

FabSugar — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 06:50:22 PDT

A couple weeks ago, I saw No Doubt. It was awesome seeing the whole crew back together singing all of their hits – "Sunday Morning" was my fave performance. Side note: Gwen's abs inspired me to hit the gym! Besides the music, I enjoyed seeing everyone's concert gear. Looks ranged from cutoff shorts to touches of punk. Me? I wore this fun Topshop vest with short booties and a faded jean jacket. Since I already had my 'fit down, I asked you to show me what you would wear to No Doubt.

I started you off with this Alexander McQueen Silk Houndstooth Scarf ($575); I'm smitten with the contradiction between the print and the fabric. Let's see my top three picks!

Look #1, created by Sarahab145, is so eclectic and cool. No doubt, Gwen would appreciate this outfit.

FabSugar — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 03:00:22 PDT

This past weekend was extra special because I attended the Oscar de la Renta fashion show in Lake Tahoe - 'twas fun! It was an annual charity soiree hosted by Saks Fifth Avenue and the League to Save Lake Tahoe, so I needed you to help me seek an elegant ensemble. Fancy, flat sandals were a must and I asked you to layer on the jewels.

I started you off with this Oscar de la Renta Canvas Zebra Cuff ($1,295). Pair it with black bangles and you have a chic, sexy look. Let's see what you came up with!

Look #1, created by nikkeeb, is ethereal and sweet. Oscar would be proud.

Fab Finding Follow-Up: King Tut Exhibit at the de Young Museum

FabSugar — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 09:00:22 PDT

Last weekend, I headed to the exclusive King Tut exhibit at the de Young Museum here in SF - so exciting. I saw Tutankhamun's tomb, ancient artifacts, and precious objects relating to the 18th dynasty. Cool, huh? My educational self-immersion took a whole day, so I needed you to put together a sleek ensemble that would withstand a lot of walking and staring.

I started you off with these Giles & Brother Tiny Pyramid Stud Earrings ($78) because they're an ode to beautiful, ancient Egypt. Let's see what you came up with!

Look #1, created by chloe bella, complements the theme. That snake bracelet is slithery slick.
