Life's a Beach: Sensational Sunnies

FabSugar — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 16:00:22 -0700

Life simply cannot be a beach without a pair of sensational sunnies. Not only do they protect your eyes from harmful UV rays, but they instantly boost your cool factor - that's why celebs wear them, right? Cheekiness aside, a pair of sunglasses is all you need to get the party started. Who better to exhibit this look than king of fashion Karl Lagerfeld and supermodel Claudia Schiffer? Done and done.

Fab Body Guide: Sunnies For Every Face, Part II

FabSugar — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 14:00:22 -0700

Have you found your perfect pair of sunnies yet? If not, look to Anne Hathaway, Christina Ricci, and Halle Berry for inspiration. Halle's light-colored lenses go great with her olive-toned complexion, and while Christina and Anne have vastly different noses, their sunnies fit them to a "t." And we want to help you find a pair that fits too, so read on!

To learn tips on finding the perfect pair of sunnies for different complexions and nose shapes, read more

Dark Complexion: Complement a darker skin tone with light-colored lenses.
Large Nose: Look to oversize frames to balance out proportions. Small frames will accentuate the nose.
Light Complexion: Contrast a lighter skin tone with dark-colored lenses.
Small Nose: Choose a high bridge that will lengthen a smaller nose.

Fab Body Guide: Sunnies For Every Face, Part I

FabSugar — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 07:00:22 -0700

How many pairs of sunglasses do you own? I'm in the midst of a sunglasses clean out, actually, so you don't want to know how many pairs I have accumulated over the years. Let's just say I'm trying to be more selective and smarter with my purchases. But yes, we have to protect our precious eyes from those harmful UV rays. When buying the new sunnies, considering certain factors can help narrow your search and results. Here are some suggestions on finding your perfect pair of sunnies.

To learn tips on finding the perfect pair of sunnies for round, oval, and square shaped faces, read more

Round Shaped Face: Look for angular, dark lenses and avoid anything round.
Oval Shaped Face: Lucky you! Your face shape can handle just about any frame shape. Square and rectangular shapes are your best bet.
Angular Shaped Face: Offset sharp features with softer shaped frames such as oval and round shaped lenses.

Trend Alert: Good 'ol Aviators

FabSugar — Tue, 26 Jun 2007 08:20:33 -0700

Sunglass trends come and go but good 'ol aviators are forever. Always cool, always collected, aviators made a major comeback after the film Top Gun - I mean, ok, Tom Cruise made them look good, but I think Val Kilmer made them look really good. Ice Man aside, I know you've got a pair sitting in the back of the drawer and it's time for them to take flight again. For those who've never ventured this way, here are some faves:

eLUXURY and Fab Play Dress Up: Marc Me

FabSugar — Tue, 09 Sep 2008 19:06:35 -0700

I was so proud of Marc and his Marc Jacobs collection last night, and I was very happy to be dressed in his contemporary line today.

Some days, an LBD does the job. Actually, most days. This Marc by Marc Jacobs Ruffled Jacquard Dress lasted me all day and all night. This dress is slightly '80s, with the asymmetrical zipper, but the faint polka dot print (have to see up close) creates texture and it is so comfortable. I also adore the Marc by Marc Jacobs Metal Check Groovee bag - you may recall it was in this month's most wanted. It's Marc meets Bottega, and the gold woven leather matches all my gold jewelry.

Speaking of, I tend to mix and match metals, and I did just that with the silver zipper, gold detailed bag, and the kitschy Martin Margiela bow ring - which is so fun. Varied metals, along with a smart LBD and purple sunglasses, made for a cool, thoroughly modern, Fashion Week look. What do you think? Do you like this one more or less than the sequin Proenza outfit from yesterday?

L.A.M.B. Gypsy Platform Sandal - $350.00	Maison Martin Margiela Gift Bow Ring - $245.00
