Inspired Spring: The Lisbon Sisters' Dreamy Chic

Brittney Stephens — Tue, 15 Mar 2011 07:54:11 PDT

Based on the novel by Jeffrey Eugenides, The Virgin Suicides is the sleepy portrayal of the five Lisbon sisters and their mysterious suicides, set in a 1970s Detroit suburb. While the subject matter is melancholic, it's hard to ignore the soft, feminine fashion. The film's dreamlike aesthetic and moody tone showcased lots of gauzy, retro-romantic babydoll dresses and ruffled tops, flat leather wedges, and girly, '70s-style eyelet and lace. Shop our picks below to crib the Lisbon sisters' easy, innocent style for Spring.

Celeb Style: Keira Knightley

Hannah Weil — Tue, 01 Mar 2011 11:30:46 PST

Spring is on the horizon, but if it's still chilly in your city, do as Keira Knightley did in London and bundle up in something cozy and chic. All you need to re-create the Brit's ensemble are the same easy pieces, layered up accordingly: start with a corduroy skirt ($48) and tights, and add a classic button-down, charcoal knit sweater, and wool coat to top it all off. My favorite part? The quintessential pair of lace-up ankle boots ($108, originally $215). Just shop the picks above to achieve a similar style.

Best of 2010: Accessories Trend of the Year

FabSugar — Thu, 09 Dec 2010 05:00:03 PST

It was quite the year for the accessory-obsessed: there were definitely loads of baubles, bags, and footwear to drool over! Any fashionista worth her weight in gold tried at least one of these cool crazes, if not all of them. In 2010, we got schooled by chic backpacks, wrapped up in stylish turbans, and swallowed alive by giant knuckle rings. Our feet were festooned with tough motorcycle boots, and the resurgence of clogs had us jumping for joy. So tell us, what was your fave accessories trend this year?

FabSugar — Tue, 23 Nov 2010 08:00:05 PST

From the sky-high platforms to the chic skater skirt, this look from Fab reader lovemakespeace is totally worthy of being snapped by The Sartorialist. She tucked a loose striped sweater into a navy blue skater skirt, then added a pair of scrunched socks and cognac Jeffrey Campbell Lita platforms ($154). She's showing some serious Lita love in the towering heels, and they complement her ensemble perfectly.

Congrats to lovemakespeace!
