Style Glossary: Liberty Print

FabSugar — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 02:00:22 -0800

Liberty

A feminine print of small garden-party florals. First popularized by London's Liberty & Co. department store. Often gives off a sweet, country vibe. Can be found on dresses, skirts, scarves, and even lingerie. The print is so popular, it made its way onto Nike sneakers. The Spring catwalks - specifically Marc by Marc Jacobs (left) and Cacharel - were filled with liberty prints.

FABTV: Radiohead "Creep"

FabSugar — Sun, 03 May 2009 11:44:22 -0700

Have you ever seen Radiohead live? They rock, in the most Fab way. If you dig their moody electronic rock, add them to your show queue. I once saw them in New York on Liberty Island - it was pretty phenomenal. However, they didn't play my favorite song of theirs - "Creep." I never understood why not. "Creep" was their first commercial success, it blew up circa '93. I remember being at camp and it was always the last song of the dance. And I was giddy dancing with my two-week camp BF. So when, years later, I saw them live, I had to hear "Creep." Maybe they didn't play it because it was so popular and therefore overplayed. Oh well, I still love them and this sweet and sour song.

Celebrity Style: Sienna Miller

FabSugar — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 11:00:22 -0700

What I admire about Sienna is that she loves flat footwear and makes no apologies for it. The actress attended the First Light Movie Awards in a comfy outfit that doesn't lack pizazz. Her super-sweet liberty print dress is toughened up via her Twenty8Twelve cropped jacket and flat brown studded boots. A Chanel cuff bracelet and a diamond cross necklace lend a touch of luxury that's appropriate for the red carpet.
