Loeffler Randall Goes Online

FabSugar — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 12:00:22 -0700

Being a mother of twins, Loeffler Randall designer, Jessie Randall, knows a thing or two about the benefits of online shopping. That's why the designer has (finally) decided to bring her array of lustful footwear and clothing online with a spankin' new online presence. "I do all of my shopping online," said Randall. “This is the way it’s going." In addition to selling its collection online, LoefflerRandall.com also offers exclusive styles and options to preorder items. Make sure to check out the blog for insider info on inspiration and fun behind-the-scenes video footage from its Fall campaign. The only thing missing is a sale section, but we're crossing fingers that one will appear soon!

FabSugar — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 13:00:22 -0700

Look who's on the cover of Lucky magazine's September issue - the always sweet Mandy Moore. Equally sweet are her purple Zac Posen crinkled silk blouse, David Yurman 18k gold bangle, and Chanel makeup. Do you love? If so, enter to win the nearly $5,000 worth of goods. Also be sure to get Mandy's take on everything from music to makeup to fashion. "My go-to boot source is Loeffler Randall. They do a tiny little wedge heel that makes you feel so polished, though you're essentially in flats." Agreed.

Trend Alert: Tangerine, Tangerine

FabSugar — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 07:50:22 -0700

How does the Zeppelin song go? "Measuring a summer's day, I only finds it slips away to gray, the hours, they bring me pain . . . " OK, actually kinda depressing. Miranda Kerr is anything but in her tangerine, tangerine. Like my most wanted tangerine Topshop beanie, Miranda's tangy blouse is uplifting. Times are still tough, let's help keep heads up by donning a happy color. Even in small doses, via a belt or bag, tangerine oozes tranquility. Tangerine, tangerine.

After a long day of filming Gossip Girl in NYC - can't wait for the new season to start! - Blake Lively slipped into a luxuriously cool ensemble for some much-deserved down time. Check out how the self-styling actress contrasted her navy silk jumper and Marc by Marc Jacobs peep-toe booties with a multicolor cropped blazer and red Chanel bag. I'm starting to like the less sexy, more stylish Blake, you?

Trend Alert: Shine Bright, Shine White

Now is the time to show off your perfect pedi in a pair of white sandals. I know, such immaculate shoes are hard to keep up, but if you're willing to sacrifice a little time and care, I guarantee you ultimate satisfaction. I can already picture these textured Loeffler Randall Genevieve Sandals ($333, originally $475) with a black bandage mini and simple tee. Hot, right? Here's a tip: if dirt seems to follow you everywhere, look for white sandals with dark bottoms. Shine bright, shine white . . .

Trend Alert: Ruffly Sandals

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 07:00:08 -0700

Ruffly sandals have taken our feet by storm with their ultra girly statement. They're the perfect way to incorporate sweet interest to your bubble toes and look great with cutoff shorts or a simple skirt. I'm a fan of the texture and depth, but they're a little too feminine for my taste. No worries, I can just nab a pair, like this Pour La Victoire Ella Zip Ruffle Sandal ($225), that tones down the froufrou with a badass zipper detailing. See, there's something for everyone.

Fab's June Most Wanted

FabSugar — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 15:00:08 -0700

June. Junio. Giugno. Juin. Juni. There you have it in five languages. "It" being my favorite month - ever. Seriously, it's the beginning of Summer, the sun has come out to play, and I'm feelin' fine. June is also a prime month for me because of the super June sales! Though I usually already have my Summer stock by now, one can always use more tanks, sandals, and swims. Interestingly, this month's musts are all little sparkly things, a couple pairs of pants, and my new baby: my very first non-vintage Bottega! Feels like butta.
