Sneak Peek! Pour La Victoire, Fall '09

FabSugar — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 04:50:22 -0700

There's a reason Pour La Victoire is one of our favorite shoe brands. Not only does the French-inspired line have a certain cool je ne sais quoi, it's also more affordable compared to other high-end footwear designers. For Fall, Pour La Victoire is gifting us with an overwhelming collection of rad boots, booties, and sandals adorned with badass zippers and studs. Leather and suede are dyed in hues of burnt sienna, moss green, blue, and luscious eggplant. I can't decide which I like more: this rough and tough buckled bootie or this nude platform sandal. I think I've died and gone to shoe heaven . . .

Fab Finding Followup: Bastille Day Croquet!

FabSugar — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 15:00:22 -0700

Last weekend, in celebration of Bastille Day - a French holiday that celebrates the beginning of the French Revolution - Yum and I enjoyed a scrumptious lunch followed by a round of croquet - we had so much fun! I asked you to help me put together a French-inspired outfit that didn't involve pouf and lace; something more along the lines of Isabel Marant's Spring collection. Yes, obsessed.

Trend Alert: Ruffly Sandals

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 07:00:08 -0700

Ruffly sandals have taken our feet by storm with their ultra girly statement. They're the perfect way to incorporate sweet interest to your bubble toes and look great with cutoff shorts or a simple skirt. I'm a fan of the texture and depth, but they're a little too feminine for my taste. No worries, I can just nab a pair, like this Pour La Victoire Ella Zip Ruffle Sandal ($225), that tones down the froufrou with a badass zipper detailing. See, there's something for everyone.

Trend Alert: Goodie Nude Shoes

FabSugar — Wed, 20 May 2009 06:50:22 -0700

Nude shoes look great with anything, really. They elongate the leg and are the sexiest neutral around. Or, you can opt to go head-to-toe nude like Penelope Cruz, goodie nude shoes. Her banded Dolce & Gabbana is near nude perfection; her satin Very Prive Louboutins are insanely Fab. I have some classic nude patent Brian Atwood pumps that I always grab in a crunch. It's a worthy investment, but I recommend shopping for your nudes in the flesh to ensure a perfect skin match.
