The Spring '11 Runways Inspire the Search For Our Own Little Bright Dress

Hannah Weil — Wed, 02 Mar 2011 09:30:55 PST

Even while we're fully immersed in the Fall '11 collections, the beginning of March has me thinking all things Spring. I've been eying the past Spring '11 runways and the brights they brought in the form of these flirty frocks from Versace, Matthew Williamson, Peter Som, and so many others. This is a different kind of LBD necessity, so forget the little black dress and allow me to introduce this season's must-own little bright dress. The colorful options are limitless, as are cuts and silhouettes, though we recommend keeping it short and sweet to soak up the sun. Just shop my picks to get the look.

Geren Ford Builds a Web Home For Its Silky Goods

FabSugar — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 03:00:22 PDT

Geren Ford is the latest to go e-commerce. All the silky tops and dresses we've come to know and love are now all together in one place. I especially appreciate the sleek photography and large photos - beautiful things are meant to be examined closely. An exciting discovery during one of my visits was this Geren Ford Jersey Gather Neck Top ($106); it's the casual counterpart of Geren's silk ruffle-neck tops.

Geren Ford's Intimate Side

FabSugar — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 14:00:22 PDT

Did you know Geren Ford started off as a lingerie line? Interesting. However, designer Geren Lockhart quickly moved over to sportswear when people started wearing her innerwear as outerwear. Now that her ready-to-wear line is running smoothly, Geren is going back to her roots with the relaunch of intimates. Geren's vintage-inspired Holiday collection, wholesaling between $34 to $116, includes silk camisoles, slips, panties, and pajama pants in black, white, and jewel tones. Embellishments such as ruffles, tucks, pleats, snaps, and exposed zippers will add special touches. The collection hits stores in October. Sweet.

Trend Alert: All Black

FabSugar — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 07:00:22 PST

Nothing says chic like dressing in all black. This darkness makes for instant drama and sex appeal. There are no rules to styling this trend, so get creative when putting your outfit together. Julianne Moore opted to go casual in a short belted dress while Claudia and Naomi stunned in their fancy ensembles. Feel free to mix textures and play up your makeup. All black, all beautiful.

Trend Alert: Fluid Silk Tops

FabSugar — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 05:00:22 PDT

There's something magical about mixing together the hard and soft. Take for instance fluid silk tops. Alone, these romantic blouses can come off overly girly, but the trick is to style them with sleek pants and hard-edge adornments.

Gossip Girl Leighton Meester is a perfect reflection of sugar and spice. Her asymmetrical top is serene; everything else is sexy. Get the picture?
