Fab Finding Follow-Up: Pottery Class

FabSugar — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 04:00:22 PDT

A recent trip to a friend's house motivated me to take a pottery class. You can make some awesome things - like the beautiful vase I saw at her place - and from what she tells me, it's fairly easy. It's going to be a messy fun time, so I needed you to help me figure out a 'fit.

I started you off with this J.Crew Morning Glory Art Tee ($42). Let's see all your Fab ensembles!

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Model For a Day

FabSugar — Fri, 09 Apr 2010 04:00:08 PDT

Last week, I asked you to play along with me as model for a day. The premise: You'd just been selected to model for a coveted ad campaign. It was your call to play model for a high-end designer or mass market brand, but you needed the perfect ensemble to represent yourself. I started you off with a little inspiration via Coco Rocha in Flair. You only got one shot, so let's see how you did.

Look #1, created by Zivanod, is totally eclectic-cool. Major crush on that tribal-print tote.

I asked you to help me put together an outfit that's exotic, colorful, and easy to move in. Sure enough, we belly-danced into the wee hours of the night.

Maybe it was all the hype, but Robert Pattinson's new movie, Remember Me, looked intriguing to me. So a couple weeks ago, I attended the special screening with a friend. I asked you to help me create the perfect comfy ensemble. I was thinking a Rob-inspired outfit might be fun - plaid, denim, disheveled, but with a polished edge.

I started you off with these Converse What Goes Around Comes Around Studded Sneakers ($215) because they're totally snazzy. Let's see my favorite looks!

Last Sunday, I attended my good friend's (first!) baby shower. The plan was to eat, play fun mother-to-be games, and open gifts. Since the festivities were held outside and the weatherman predicted partly cloudy skies, I needed you to help me put together a cute layered outfit.

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Screen Printing Party!

FabSugar — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 05:00:22 PST

I recently heard about an awesome DIY spot in San Francisco: Workshop. The genesis of a self-proclaimed DIY-er, Workshop houses a ton of fun classes - complete with a rad DJ and free beer - for the cool and crafty. Last week, it hosted an amazing screen printing party, so you know I was there with my blank canvases. Since paint (and beer) were involved, things got a tad messy. I asked you help me piece together a fun 'fit - let's see my top three looks!

I started you off with these Alexis Bittar Neon Pyramid Earrings ($95); so artsy and abstract.

Look #1, by nikkeeb is perfect for screen printing. I like how the pastel hues add a cute girly touch.
