A Fabby Halloween: Baby

FabSugar — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 06:50:22 -0700

What better way to pay tribute to the late Patrick Swayze than with an ode to his "Baby" in Dirty Dancing? The story of a rich and innocent teenage girl turned infatuated woman will always be engraved in my memory. My favorite scene was when Frances "Baby" Houseman told Swayze she carried a watermelon - hilarious. Replicate Baby's innocent '80s look in a white Summer dress and matching heels, or with high-waist denim shorts and a cropped white top. Oh yes, don't forget the tight curls and sexy dance moves!

Celebrity Style: Nicky Hilton

FabSugar — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 11:00:08 -0700

Nicky Hilton attended a party in the Hamptons wearing a hot LBD by Mason by Michelle Mason. I've been eying this frock for a while now, and now seeing Nicky in it sealed the deal for me. The lace slices show just enough skin, and notice how she continued the cutout theme with sexy sandals. A black leather jacket, patent Chanel clutch, silver bangles, and statement ring complete her sexy cool ensemble.

A bunch of my friends were on a cruise around Mexico, Honduras, and Belize. They just came back, and since I missed them so much, I greeted them at the airport. I asked you to help me put together an outfit that would make me feel pretty among their tropical gear.

I started you off with these Newport News Rose Flats ($29, originally $39) because they simply caught my eye. Let's see what you all came up with!

Look #1, created by klynnmorton, is comfy but filled with pizazz. Nice gold jewels.

Trend Alert: Funky Flat Ankle Booties

FabSugar — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 04:00:08 -0800

You get the best of both worlds when you wear flat ankle booties. Their witchy, downtown appeal goes perfectly with short hemlines, and they're super comfy. I'm actually wearing mine today with a moody floral mini-skirt, dark tights, white tee, and long cardigan. Believe me, you'll be hooked before you know it.

Trend Alert: Vivacious Velvet Jackets

FabSugar — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 06:00:22 -0800

Whitney Port is all about staying sassy. Check her out in LA wearing a vivacious velvet jacket. That's right people, velvet coats are back in abundance with refreshing cuts and colors. I suggest brighter hues for blazers and a darker palette with larger coats. I like how The City girl wore her navy blue Edwardian style jacket with light denim jeans - now that's Winter in LA.

Trend Alert: Kimono Cuts

FabSugar — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 14:00:08 -0800

There's something about kimono cuts that give off a Zen-like feel. Is it the wide sleeves or flattering shape? Or maybe it's the robe-inspired cut. Whatever it is, I dig it. Check out this McQ Bird Intarsia Kimono Dress ($293, originally $585). The foldover cut and funky print is the perfect mix of East meets West.

A Fabby Halloween: Tina Turner

FabSugar — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 07:00:22 -0700

The Queen of Rock 'n' Roll is here to make your Halloween a blast. It's time to release that inner diva and shine as one of the sultriest female rockers in history. Tina is known for her legendary legs, lips, and hair, so play up those features in fringe and sequins - definitely something short, sexy, and playful. Maximize your stems in a pair of sexy high heels, don a shaggy Tina wig, and shake your bon-bon!

Trend Alert: Cropped Sleeve Jackets

FabSugar — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 16:00:22 -0700

You might say it's a fashion oxymoron to wear cropped sleeve jackets, but say again. These cropped creations give your arms the ability to move more freely and make for an expert layered look.

Imagine this trench with a long-sleeved blouse top peeking out the ends. Or, go mod and color block it with a bright red turtleneck. And if it's not too cold outside, wear it alone and load on the bangles. Au revoir oxymoron.

Back to Cool: Clueless

FabSugar — Thu, 21 Aug 2008 15:00:22 -0700

In high school, it's all about boys, popularity, and clothes. Yep, sounds about right. No movie portrayed that better than Clueless. In her most outstanding role, Alicia Silverstone played Cher, and along with her BF Dione, took newbie Tai under their wings and transformed her into one of the most coveted girls in school. All it took was a couple knee-high socks, short plaid skirts, platform pumps, and a Beverly Hills attitude. See, it's so easy to go from clueless to coolness. As if!
