FabSugar — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 08:00:22 -0700

It's warming up here in SF but not in Paris. Check out duhveenah on vacay looking like a cold cutie. Her pleated skirt and ruffled top give off a prim Blair Waldorf vibe while a Serena van der Woodsen-inspired leather jacket and boots toughen things up. Wish I was there!

Here's what she has on:

Jacket: H&M
Blouse: Morgan
Skirt:Target
Boots: Dansko
Bag: Isaac Mizrahi for Target

Congrats to duhveenah!

Here's what she has on:

Shirt: J.Crew
Belt: Anthropologie
Bag: J.Crew

Look of the Day: Quick Learner

FabSugar — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 05:00:22 -0800

Syako is a quick learner. See, she was inspired by a fellow team member's Fab belting technique so she decided to try it out for herself. Her brown belt breaks up the pretty plum hues and I like how it cinches in her structured blazer. Muy bien!

Here's what she has on:

Blazer: Proenza Schouler for Target
Belt: Unknown
Turtleneck: Three Dots
Dress: H&M
Tights: Target
Boots: Michelle D

Congrats to syako!

The Look For Less: Loeffler Randall Olivia Flat Boot

FabSugar — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 04:00:22 -0700

Remember when we were all swooning over Shopbop girl Iskra's Loeffler Randall Flat Boots ($750)? The supple leather, the slight wedge, the subtle buckle . . . I can go on about these, but staring isn't going to make them magically appear. Behold: I have found, and already purchased, the look for less (yes!).

To see the look for less, read more.

These Steve Madden Intyce Boots ($200) are pretty close to the real thing - and $550 cheaper. I like the how the slightly pebbled texture gives the shaft more dimension. Now that's what I'm talking about!

Fab Finding Follow Up: Kite Runner

FabSugar — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 16:00:22 -0700

Last weekend's kite-flying date was filled with windy, outdoor fun. I definitely wasn't up to par with The Kite Runner, but I gave my best effort. Don't worry, I didn't make a complete fool out of myself.

I started you off with this Forever 21 Tie Dye Headband ($4) because it was hippie chic and kept the hair out of my face. Let's see what you all came up with!

Look # 1, created by gabitaitalia, is casual chic. I'm loving the menswear-inspired shirt.

Oak is my go-to site when I'm in search of a quick, hip fix. Their stock is pretty pricey so when a sale hits, I'm all over it. These Frye Paige Short Buckle Boots ($169, originally $242) were found in the 30 percent off section and appeals to the new-age hippie in me. The light color is perfect for Summer and the diamond perforations take this classic boot to a whole new level of cool.

Celebrity Style: Flat Boots For Any Occasion

FabSugar — Wed, 01 Nov 2006 17:48:49 -0800

I just can't say enough about one of this season's most must-have styles, flat boots. I particularly love the photo spread from the upcoming issue of Life & Style, showing all of the different ways that fashionable celebs are sporting this trend. Lindsay Lohan hits all the marks for a casual urban look, while Hilary Swank goes for a swinging '60s vibe. I love how Hilary pairs the girly black-and-white coat with opaque tights and tall, flat black boots, making her outerwear into an outfit in itself.

I'm actually wearing mine today with a moody floral mini-skirt, dark tights, white tee, and long cardigan. Believe me, you'll be hooked before you know it.
