March Shopping Madness: S-s-s-Snakeskin

FabSugar — Thu, 13 Mar 2008 07:00:22 PDT

S-s-s-Snakeskin, be it the print or the actual skin (ew?), is a Spring trend that's showing up on clothing (Christopher Kane), bags (Gucci), shoes (Dolce & Gabbana), and anything else it can get its slithery self onto. But let's zoom in on bags because they're as luxurious as luxurious gets. If you don't like the thought of carrying a bag made with real snakeskin, opt for snake-embossed; there are plenty of slick ones to choose from!

During a season when shopping is a high priority, we have to embrace all the sales we can get. If you're into shoes and handbags - that's almost every girl - then check out Furla's Fall sale. Up for grabs are leather purses, wallets, cosmetic cases, and of course, fabulous footwear.

Trend Alert: White, Red & Black

FabSugar — Tue, 02 Oct 2007 08:30:22 PDT

If red, white & blue beckon Independence Day, what does red, white & black represent? Fabulous Day? Sure. Put three bold colors together and you get a classic, graphic look. Not a color combo for the shy, black and white are already BFFs so when you add a dose of scarlet it's a triple threat. Happy white, red & black day!

Trend Alert: Crocodile Rock

FabSugar — Wed, 29 Aug 2007 08:00:33 PDT

I've found the chic pebbled skin of the crocodile to be controversial. A lux material indeed, would you fancy wearing an aquatic reptile on your arm? You know I've got a thing for python, so I'm thinking I could do the crocodile rock. These slithery handbags are streamlined and serious - they are the season's most urbane accessory. Will you rock it?

Fab's Spring Shoe Guide! Open-Toed D'Orsays

FabSugar — Wed, 21 Mar 2007 14:50:22 PDT

Here is the most ladylike option you will see during my Fab Spring Shoe Guide. Open-toed d'orsays are the best option for a cocktail party, wedding or when you just want to feel womanly. They are also sexy since they accentuate the ankle and the sleek sides of the foot. Move aside you wood-heeled wedges and make room for the femme fatale d'orsay.

Mighty Python Handbags

FabSugar — Fri, 22 Dec 2006 09:32:05 PST

I know some of you are anti-fur, and you are entitled to be. But how do you feel about reptiles? In particular, the latest crop of mighty python handbags? Python is an undeniably luxe and opulent material. Cleopatra wore these slithering snakes as bracelets during her reign and we all know she knew how to accessorize. With these status symbols you too can dangle a python from your wrist, in theory at least. Check these out:
