Trend Alert: Crop Tops

FabSugar — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 04:50:22 -0700

It was bound to happen. Crop tops are back in a badass way. If you're brave enough to show some skin, jump on the bandwagon. Don't fret, there's no need to go all-out '80s like Whitney Port. I suggest contrasting this short shirt with something more sophisticated like a pair of cropped black trousers or cute skirt. Even better, try layering it over a tank a la Sienna Miller. You down?

Jessica Szohr took a break from her colorful Gossip Girl ensembles and changed into something more sleek for an event in Connecticut over the weekend. The brunette bombshell sizzled wearing a black silk jumper, strappy sandals, and gold chain bag. To add extra spunk, Jessica accessorized with a gold hammered cuff, silver fringe necklace, and chunky rings - I love how she's not afraid to mix metals. This girl is all funky, all fantastic.

Glitterati: Giles & Brother

FabSugar — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 15:00:08 -0800

Jewelry creator extraordinaire Philip Crangi has dazzled us with his raw approach to design for a while now. What happens when you throw another Crangi into the mix? Giles & Brother.

Philip, along with his sister Courtney, draws inspiration from a range of places, from classic estate jewelry to African textiles. But what makes this diffusion line more wallet-friendly is replacing semiprecious stones with rhinestones and vintage beads. As long as it sparkles, I'll take it. Prices range from $75 to $300 and the line can be found at Barneys Co-op, Shopbop, and Oak NYC.
