Trend Alert: Cat Print Minis

FabSugar — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 07:50:22 -0700

Sigh, I will never tire of Miranda Kerr's cuteness. In addition to being one of Victoria's Secret's top models, the natural beauty is also a master at casual cool styling. While running errands in her native hometown of Sydney, Australia, she cranked up the fashion factor by pairing a blazer and tee with a vivacious cat print mini. Genius. These savage minis - whether lush leopard, cheetah, or tiger prints - add the ideal dose of animal instinct, and look best paired with loose casual tops. Just look at Miranda for inspiration; you know I will.

Trend Alert: Sheer Sleeves

FabSugar — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 04:00:22 -0700

Sheer sleeves will surely keep you motivated to work out this Fall. In fact, I can't think of a better way to show off those hard earned toned biceps. Daring slim sleeve cuts, like this racy Derek Lam Zip Front Dress ($1,650), emote a more '80s vibe while billowy romantic sleeves, like the one January Jones recently wore allude a more modern aura. Take your pick . . .

I Love Your ShopStyle: Amelia Earhart

FabSugar — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 05:00:08 -0700

I have a lot of female role models in my life. Of course, there's my mom, Carine Roitfeld, Michelle Obama, etc. Like tres tres chic, I also look up to famous aviator Amelia Earhart. Her tribute to the aviatrix includes a mix of sporty yet luxe vintage-inspired flight gear. I love all of the fur embellishments - pilots need to keep warm – and leather. I'm sure Amelia would appreciate that sumptuous Phillip Lim flight jacket, I sure do.

Welcome to the lives of the rich and fabulous. What better way to spend a Summer Sunday than in honor of Cartier, witnessing polo and sipping champagne. Count, me, in. Unfortunately, yours truly had a previous engagement (in my dreams), but here's proof that Cartier throws one helluva polo day. A witty mix of fashion folk, Matthew Williamson, here with chic friends, Polly Delevigne, and actress Anna Friel, mingled with Spanish actress Elsa Pataky, Neve Campbell, and funkster Jay Kay.

Eclectic Style at the Serpentine Soirée

FabSugar — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 16:14:28 -0700

If I could attend one Summer soiree it would be the fabulous Serpentine Gallery's Summer party. It's not the biggest or the most star-studded, but it's a pretty cool spread and diverse, stylish crowd. Where else do Dasha Zhukova and Jamiroquoi's Jay Kay mingle? It looked like a lovely day in Kensington Gardens, and oh look - here's best fashion buds Thandie and Matthew Williamson. Curious to see inside the Serpentine? Step right up.

Cruise '10 Trend: Clean, Lean Trousers

FabSugar — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 03:00:22 -0700

With Cruise '10 in full effect, let's stop and evaluate the latest. Frocks and skirts dominated, but what really caught my eye were clean, lean trousers - quite the opposite of crazy harem pants. Instead, trousers ranged from cropped and loose-fitting to tight and body-con. All polished, all pretty. Each style had its own appeal; I can see myself rockin' these silky Roksanda Ilincic trousers to a rooftop party and these Rebecca Taylor pants for a lazy bike ride. Want to see the cream of the crop?
