Trend Alert: Nordic Prints

FabSugar — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 06:00:22 PST

Nordic prints, also known as Fair Isle, have made a major comeback and I can see why. This interesting knit goes hand-in-hand with today's unfussy style and can brighten up any gloomy Winter palette. For instance, Ashley Tisdale's tee and denim combo would be nothing special without the help of her pretty Nordic cardigan sweater. Notice how the intricate print adds instant style to her casual outfit. Too busy for your taste? Take this trend in small doses via fun scarves or gloves.

Look of the Day: Holiday Sheer

FabSugar — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 03:00:49 PST

Take notes on Fab reader brunetteblogging's pretty ensemble - sheer accents, statement costume jewelry, and a great pair of wedge heels go a long way. We think this dressed up look is holiday party perfect, with just the right amount of sparkle, formality, and edgy girlieness. She paired a sheer double-pocketed button-up blouse, untucked, with a highwaisted black-and-white striped mini skirt. To up the ante, she donned black tights, dark gray lace-up wedge heels, a gray foldover chain purse, and a chunky diamond-studded necklace. Her stylish use of peekaboo fabric and bold details was, well, sheer genius.

Congrats to brunetteblogging!

Ooh La La: Parisian Kids Line Pearls & Popcorn Debuts in US

LilSugar — Thu, 10 Nov 2011 11:13:27 PST

Paris has been considered the fashion bastion of the world since black was the new black, with Parisians setting the style standard for the rest of us. It's not just the parents who are impeccably attired. French tots up the style ante as well, and with the debut of Pearls & Popcorn earlier this month, US tots will be dressed just as well as their posh Parisian peers. Debuting exclusively at Bloomingdale's, the collection features expertly tailored basics - think cardigans and slim-fitting pants in mostly solid colors - dressed up with exquisite details. The collection manages to stay on trend - stripes, lots of gray, and denim - without looking trendy. Other than the chic silhouettes, one of the sweetest elements of these clothes is the price: nothing costs over $60!

Click through for 10 of their sweetest looks.

Side note: the clothes are absolutely adorable, but what's up with the creepy dancing babies on pearlsandpopcorn.com?
