Trend Alert: Glorious Gray Clutches

FabSugar — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 14:30:22 -0800

Yes, Kate Beckinsale and hubby Len Wiseman are a handsome couple, but so are the star and her glorious gray clutch. This neutral hue gives off a casual yet refined vibe without taking the spotlight away from an outfit. I love wearing my gray clutch with bright ensembles for extra contrast, but it also works with lighter tones. Just look at Kate for inspiration: her clutch plays the perfect supporting role to her silver J.Mendel dress - simply dazzling.

Come Fab Finding With Me: New Job, New Wardrobe

FabSugar — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 09:00:22 -0700

It's been a while since I heard any news about someone starting a brand spanking new job. Looks like the world is turning.

Let's lend her a hand.

Celeb Style: Monet Mazur

FabSugar — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 11:00:22 -0700

Oh, Monet. You're relatively incognito, but when you do show your face - and bod - it's refreshing and ultra styley. The actress did some shopping in London in a casual gray monochrome 'fit. Her gold-studded Topshop sweater already has me obsessed, and her faded gray jeans are rugged chic. Neutral accessories, including tan Louboutin pumps, a gold ball ring, and an adorable knit beret, are spot-on. Happy shopping, Monet!

Trend Alert: Wrapped in Gray

FabSugar — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 07:50:22 -0700

I've died and gone to gray heaven. My everyday neutral has been sexified by model Selita Ebanks, designer Haider Ackermann, and actress Paula Patton. They are all wrapped in gray, and I'm wrapped in envy. While gray is the perfect canvas for a colorful accessory, here it stands alone just fine. While the color may be safe, the cuts are anything but; ruched, draped, asymmetrical, slit, and one-shouldered, the party never ends. If you're seeking one dress to take you through the season, look no further.

Fall Glimpse: Gray Day

FabSugar — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 14:00:22 -0700

Fall is nearing and my wallet is taking a momentary nap. Are you ready to review my favorite Fall trends? These are the clothes I am most excited for. Everyone's talking about the '80s power dressing revival - been there, done that. Let's dig a little deeper, shall we? Starting with my favorite neutral: gray day. Gray has a natural way of appearing modern, sporty, and versatile. Take this Versace gown; it is all of the above, with a strict serving of sex appeal. Gray days are meant for a mellow life, and yet they still deliver a strong statement. Happy gray day.

Christina has this ability to always swoon us. She's confident, classic, and cool. Here she is at the LA premiere of Bruno looking just that. Her silk gray draped dress is appropriate for just about any event - take note - and she adds a little glam with a gold snake chain belt. Black patent wooden heeled platforms are perfectly Summery while a black clutch keeps things minimal. What a killer smile . . .

Celebrity Style: Kate Moss

FabSugar — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 11:00:22 -0700

Just a day ago, at the Mummy Rocks charity event where she auctioned off a kiss, Kate Moss was head-to-toe black. Today, she's monochrome light and equally fabulous. The Super left a business meeting looking anything but stuffy. Rather, she kept it breezy in a light gray blazer, a white tank, and light cropped jeans. Nude ankle-strap sandals, Ray-Ban aviators, and a gray suede satchel up her cool factor. What a breath of fresh air, no?

Victoria Beckham, Monochrome Aviator: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Sun, 08 Mar 2009 03:24:22 -0700

We all know Victoria Beckham isn't afraid to try something new. This time, the celebrity designer took the meaning of jet-setting attire to a whole new level. A recent trip to LAX inspired Beckham to wear a gray suede trench coat and matching captain's hat by Loewe. A pair of oversize aviators, Yves Saint Laurent platform pumps, and Valentino bag complete her ensemble - all cool grays. Leave it to Victoria to show off her version of pilot chic. Do you love it or hate it?

Dress Me Up: Gold & Gray

FabSugar — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 06:00:08 -0800

Gold & gray go together like peanut butter and jelly. Meaning, they're fine alone, but when combined, they produce even richer flavors. Gray calms down gold, while gold pumps up gray's volume a notch or two. The result is part vivid, part mellow.

When I close my eyes, I envision this Mason by Michelle Mason Metallic Gold Corset ($83, originally $275) paired over a fitted heather gray long-sleeve tee. The bottom layer would tame the corset and make it more everyday wearable. Yummy - try it sometime.

Celebrity Style: Michelle Trachtenberg

FabSugar — Fri, 23 Jan 2009 10:58:41 -0800

Michelle Trachtenberg knows that the simplicity of a draped dress can go a long way. To fete the opening of the the W hotel in Atlanta, the actress contrasted her milky complexion with a sophisticated silver Catherine Malandrino dress and deco accessories. I like how the embellished belt adds interest to her subdued palette. A bejeweled satin clutch by Swarovski, dainty black sandals, and rhinestone earrings complete her cunning look.

Catherine Malandrino - Women's Silver Silk w/ Stones Dress - $495.00	Iganga - $70.00
Merona Rhinestone Brooch Box Clutch - Black - $7.50	Sterling Silver Two-Tone Onyx Drop Earrings - $250.00
