Trend Alert: Moody Knits

FabSugar — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 04:00:22 -0700

I know you've heard about moody florals, but what about moody knits? These dark pieces are a far cry from the ones your auntie knits for you every holiday. Moody sweaters have an ominous tinge to them via slashes, open weaving, and gloomy patterns. Check out Kate Moss in London working this look in a furry black, gray, and red striped sweater from her collection for Topshop. So rad.

Look of the Day: School Boy Crush

FabSugar — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 04:50:22 -0700

Swoon, school boy crush. Sosupersam nailed the stripes/blazer/khaki short combo. The scrunched sleeves and high-waisted and belted shorts are excellent styling stories. We can't see her shoes, but it's all good, this is perfection.

Here's what she has on:

Blazer: Zara
Top: H&M
Shorts: Opening Ceremony
Belt: Vintage

Congrats to Sosupersam!

Teen Choice Awards: Alexis Bledel

FabSugar — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 18:39:46 -0700

Alexis Bledel showed off her baby blues tonight wearing a silk and lace Opening Ceremony cobalt dress. For a quirky cute touch, the Post Grad star dressed her feet with a pair of bright orange and light gray patent leather sandals by Loeffler Randall. Of course, I love it - she stepped out of the sexy mini dress box - do you?

Online Sale Alert! Massive Sale at Opening Ceremony

FabSugar — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 05:50:22 -0700

Opening Ceremony's current sale section has got to be the largest I've seen. Not the cheapest, but the biggest. Besides its namesake brand, it also houses merchandise from Rachel Comey, Vena Cava, Acne, Alexander Wang, and more. There are plenty of avant-garde pieces, but I thought this Zechia Lacey Tee ($193, originally $275) - lollipop not included - is one of the most mass appealing. We've seen striped tees before, but the lace adds a sweet touch, no? For more great deals, check out SaleHabit.com!

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Funny Show

FabSugar — Thu, 21 May 2009 14:00:22 -0700

I'm a lover of fashion, but did you know I also like laughing? In fact, I participated in a comedy open mic in NYC a couple years back. Needless to say, I bombed. Last weekend, I left it to the professionals and attended a comedy show with a couple of friends. I asked you to put together a cunning outfit for me.

I started you off with these Opening Ceremony Lace-Up Flats ($222, originally $370) because I was inspired by Sienna Miller's cool 'fit. So many good looks, let's see who made the cut!

Look #1, created by catita85, is simple yet complex. The gray blouse goes exceptionally well with the sandals.
