The Look For Less: J Brand Shoreman Sailor Pant

FabSugar — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 03:00:22 -0700

Sailor pants are such fun. They're a quick and casual way to look nautical and fresh and what's not to love about those adorable buttons? These J Brand Shoreman Sailor Pant ($217) are adorable but ahoy mate expensive! Let's see if we can find the look on the cheap . . .

These Delia's Quinn Low-Rise Sailor Flares ($40), are equally crisp and clean. The lightweight fabric is perfect for warm weather and I prefer the navy buttons over the brass anyway.

Simply Fab: SkinnyJeans

FabSugar — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 10:00:22 -0700

The quest for the perfect pair of jeans seems unending. Just when I think J Brand jeans had answered all my prayers, I come across SkinnyJeans ($178). The name is pretty obvious to what they do. SkinnyJeans are made for every type of body tucking, lifting, flattening, and lengthening where you want it. The coolest thing is they have a nonstretch cotton pocketing in the front to hold in your tummy. Their selection is limited to two styles but their patrons are more than happy with what they have to offer. What more can a girl ask for?

Fab Finding Follow Up: Mountain Girl

FabSugar — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 17:00:22 -0700

Fab reader Musette needed our help. She's heading to Vancouver, Canada, for a mountain vacation but the semi-cold weather (high 50s to 60 degrees) had her confused on what to wear. She wanted a casual yet chic look before she embarks on her mountain adventure.

I started you off with this Forever 21 Wrinkled Paisley Scarf ($8) because it will keep her warm from the lingering, cold wind.

Let's see what you all came up with!

Look # 1, created by electricpearls, is simple and cute. The cashmere sweater is sure to keep her cozy and I love the electric blue bag!

Fab Body Guide: J Brand Creates Jeans For Bodacious Women

FabSugar — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 14:00:22 -0700

If you ask, they will answer. At least that's the case with J Brand. “Blue Label is perfect for women with curves. We have received a good deal of feedback from women who told us they loved our look and styles but wanted a fuller fit. We created Blue Label with a more generous cut around the leg, as well as a contoured waistband to hug the body’s natural curves,” says creative director and cofounder of the J Brand, Susie Crippen.

The new collection consists of three dominant cuts: The Scarlett, The Catherine, and The Monroe; and waist sizes will range from 25 to 34. The Scarlett and Catherine uses J Brand's classic cigarette and bootleg styling while The Monroe caters to women who prefer a wide-legged fit. The Blue Label is set to launch exclusively at Bloomingdale’s in July and other stores in August.

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Cruisin' on the Boulevard

FabSugar — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 17:00:22 -0700

Me and my banana seat cruiser had a nice long ride on the Boulevard last weekend. Wardrobe malfunctions are one of the imminent dangers of bike riding so I needed your help in finding an equally fashionable and functional outfit.

I started you off with this sporty Versace Small Darling Convertible Tote ($3,330) because the shoulder straps can be buckled at the base for backpack wear. That will definitely keep my hands where they're supposed to be - on the handles!

Let's see what you all came up with!

Look #1, created by maria212134 is cool and functional. The twill fedora lends a Parisian vibe and I love the denim trouser shorts.

Look #3, created by hil34 made me want to sing Bohemian Rhapsody. The hippie-inspired smocked tunic is retro rad and the jeans are a good choice in case the weather doesn't cooperate.

Celebrity Style: Lindsay Lohan

FabSugar — Wed, 21 Feb 2007 13:11:33 -0800

Not even a stint in rehab will stop Lindsay Lohan from a night out on the town. This dressed down celebutante wouldn't miss a party to save her life, but she does keep looking better and better. Maybe rehab has done her some good after all! We speculate that her hot red bag is Chanel, but can't seem to find it anywhere; knowing Lindsay, this bag hasn't even hit the stores yet! Lucky girl....

UPDATE: Her fabulous red bag is by Onna Ehrlich, thanks for the tip Sofia!

To get LL's look, read more

G Star Peak Trench Coat, on sale for about $190 (originally $381). Note: she is wearing the cropped version of this trench.

Splendid Light Jersey V Tank, $44.

J Brand Hussein Chalayan Circuit Jean: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 09:00:08 -0700

ICYMI, Hussein Chalayan partnered with J Brand to deliver a collection of forward jeans. This J Brand Hussein Chalayan Circuit Low Rise Zipper Jean ($258) is one of them. It's different from other skinny jeans due to the bunching at the center of the leg. I can't see it being flattering on many body types, but it would work for an experimental gal. Are you that gal?

How Much Is Too Much When It Comes to Shredded Jeans?

FabSugar — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 03:00:22 -0700

Seeing Audrina Patridge's crazily shredded jeans made me wonder: how much is too much when it comes to shredded jeans? Surely everyone has their limits. Since I'm not into the overly '80s thing, mine is three medium-sized shreds, max. I don't like my denim too brash. I'm curious, what's your limit when it comes to shredded jeans?
