Fab Finding Follow-Up: Miniature Golf With Mommy

FabSugar — Tue, 12 May 2009 08:50:22 -0700

Mother's Day was Sunday - did you remember? I did. It was a glorious, sunny day so we took my mom out for some fun miniature golf followed by a light dinner. I asked you to help me find a cute outfit, that included comfy flats, for my day with mom.

Fab Tip: Pit Stains No More

FabSugar — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 04:00:22 -0700

A friend of mine recently complained that her new James Perse top, much like this James Perse Slouch Fleece Top ($165), was ruined by yellow pit stains. Sucks. Pit stains are ugly, but they're not the end of the world. The first plan of attack is to try to prevent them. Should they succeed in making their way onto your shirt, there are ways to obliterate them. Mua-ha-ha . . .

To learn how to fight pit stains, read more.

Sweat alone doesn't cause armpit stains. The chemicals from your antiperspirant are also to blame. The best thing to do is to switch from an antiperspirant to strictly a deodorant. I did. If you must use an antiperspirant, try an intense one that will more actively stop sweat, like Klima ($25), which you apply once every five days.

To remove pit stains, spray Shout Laundry Stain Remover ($5) on the problem area and let it sit for five minutes. Then take a brush and scrub the area until the stains have been removed. You can also use RID White-Wash Dye Powder ($3) to get yellow stains out. A more obvious solution is to wear loose-fitting tops so that the arm holes don't stick to your armpit. Lastly, avoid wearing a jacket or cardigan during sweaty times; the extra layer will force your top to stick to your armpit. Am I missing anything?

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Shopping For Sunnies

FabSugar — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 15:00:22 -0700

You know what it means when the sun is shining and the flowers are blooming - Spring! Time to revel in the warm weather. The recent bout of sunshine made me realize it's time for a new pair of sunnies; aviators, to be exact. I asked you to help me find a no-fuss outfit for my sunglasses adventure.

I started you off with this Alexander McQueen Messenger Bag ($1,241) because it's hands-free and drop-dead gorgeous. Let's see the top three looks!

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?

Smythe Linen boyfriend blazer - $530.00	Antique Skeleton Key Necklace - $14.00
Light gray skinny cropped jeans - $59.50	Ray Ban Aviator - $129.00

Celebrity Style: Victoria Beckham

FabSugar — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 12:00:08 -0800

I just love it when women wear their coats as dresses. It lends mystery; after all, we don't know what's on underneath. But that's not the only reason I'm crushing on Victoria Beckham's Milan ensemble. Her Dolce & Gabbana jeweled headband, which she's worn once before, also plays a big part. It makes her head sparkle and adds a luxurious spin to her outfit. She completed her look with patent black Christian Louboutin boots and two handsomely dapper sons.

Curved Sleeve Coat - $458.00	Jennifer Ouellette Rhinestone Headband- Multi - $145.00
Christian Louboutin Arielle A Talon ankle boots - $1,555.00	Dillard's sterling collection 10mm cz stud earrings - $40.00

A Fabby Halloween: Cleopatra

FabSugar — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 08:00:22 -0700

This striking Pharaoh was one of the most important figures in Egypt's history. Using her wits and ravishing looks, Cleopatra claimed power and victory across the lands. Her story of power and love was so powerful it prompted directors to portray her story in numerous Hollywood movies; Joseph L. Mankiewicz's rendition starring Elizabeth Taylor was my favorite. Achieving her look is sexy and easy. All you need is a simple long jersey dress (in black or white), tons of gold accessories and serious makeup. Hold your head high and walk like an Egyptian . . .

Fab's 10 Fall Essentials: Black Maxi Skirt

FabSugar — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 17:00:22 -0700

Confession: I've already gotten one. I was inspired by Jenni Kayne's Spring '09 collection. I love the long, lean silhouette and nonchalant feel. Think Rick Owens.

Today is the first official day of Fall, and for the next couple weeks we are going to count down our 10 Fall Essentials. So often friends and fams ask us what's new and exciting for the season. We realize fashion can be overwhelming, and we're happy to dwindle it down to 10 fantastic new additions that we're personally coveting and you should too.

I've already worn this skirt with a sexy nude tank top and layered jewelry; I also wore a cardi to add to the mellow vibe. I'm also thinking it would be cute with moccasin boots, chunky knit sweaters, and a cropped leather jacket. The possibilities are endless for this James Perse Maxi Skirt ($175).

Look of the Day: Savoring Summer

FabSugar — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 08:00:22 -0700

I like the way you think, nannabean. She doesn't want Summer to end and I don't blame her. It's starting to cool down in her neck of the woods but she's savoring Summer in her cute outfit. I like how her lovely mustard skirt is not overly bright and the belt adds a touch of warmth. It works.

Here's what she has on:

Top: James Perse
Skirt: American Apparel
Belt: Target
Shoes: Target

Congrats to nannabean!

Everyone else, submit your looks and I might feature you on FabSugar!

Celebrity Style: Rihanna

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 12:00:08 -0700

Remember how I said a striped cardigan has the ability to inject a dash of sportif into an outfit? Rihanna is more proof of that. The singer looked casual yet pulled together while hanging out in Manhattan yesterday. Unbuttoning her Cardigan French stripe cardigan was a smart move as it kept her from looking too prim. To add some girliness to the mix, she accessorized with Louboutin pumps and a patterned Gucci satchel. And, of course, it wouldn't be Rihanna without a pair of funky glasses and oversized hoop earrings.
