Celebrity Trend Alert: Shoulder-Baring Frocks

Hannah Weil — Thu, 31 Mar 2011 12:42:46 PDT

Unlike a mini or maybe a plunging neckline, there are a few ways of revealing some skin that never feel, well, too revealing. At the top of our list currently are shoulder-baring frocks, just the way fashion pack Alexa Chung, Michelle Monaghan, Abbie Cornish, and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld are showing them off. They're sexy, but not overt, leaving an exposed neckline to adorn with a fabulous statement necklace or dangling earrings. We love the feel of a looser, floral-print off-the-shoulder for a fresh '70s vibe by day, then slip into a body-con version and channel a sultrier side of the '80s by night.

Rachel Pally Creates an Exclusive Dress For Target

Melody Nazarian — Tue, 09 Nov 2010 06:00:05 PST

Target is all about dresses these days. First it announced a limited-edition dress collection, and, now, it has collaborated with designer Rachel Pally for an exclusive plum floral frock ($80) as part of its Red Hot Shop. "It can be worn several ways, including strapless or as a skirt. It is flexible, with age range and personal style," Pally says of her creation. We're not too crazy about the halter styles but do love the skirt and tube dress versions. One piece, five ways - you know we're all about that here at Fab!

The Look For Less: Sienna Miller's Leopard Miniskirt

Hannah Weil — Fri, 08 Oct 2010 05:00:05 PDT

I've fallen hard for Fall's leopard trend. So when I spied Sienna Miller sporting her Twenty8Twelve leopard print mini, I wanted one, too. I couldn't help but start planning the outfit fun: pairing it with my military anorak, maybe an olive green tee - so many ways to wear it. Unfortunately, I let my mind wander before I thought through the cost, which is around $280 . . .

Natalie Portman stepped out in a short and sweet Miu Miu strapless dress for the 67th annual Venice Film Festival but gave a twist to classic cocktail with royal hues and mixed metallics. The actress chose a deep purple dress ($125) and added a quilted silver clutch ($26) and satin rose gold heels to amp up the fun - effortless elegance. Click the items above to shop a similar look.

Fancy something super spicy? Try a dress in a red-hot hue paired with leopard print heels for taste. If you need convincing, check out Diane Kruger last month and Nicky Hilton last night in red hot leopard combos. It doesn't take much - just a bold LRD and sexy leopard pumps or platforms. The result? A sexy-chic pairing that screams for itself. Rawr.

Remember when I featured these lusty Burberry Ruched Leggings in my imaginary Net-A-Porter shopping spree? Needless to say, I didn't win the contest - tear - so I've been on the hunt for a more affordable pair. Lucky me, I found these Rachel Pally Ruched Leggings ($60, originally $198) in Shopbop's 70 percent off section. Pretty sweet price, huh? There's more tempting deals from the likes of Thakoon, Velvet, Rachel Roy, and Chris Benz to squander over at Shopbop. I suggest you act fast before guilt sets in!

Party On, Excellent! Sassy Jumpsuits

FabSugar — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 04:50:22 PST

I plan on attending at least three holiday parties this year just so I can show off my frugal yet Fab frock, a pair of sequin shorties, and a sassy jumpsuit. Yes, jumpsuits lean on the daring side, but they're just so slick. Cuts and colors range from silky cropped styles to wide-legged wonders, so pick your pleasure. May I suggest wearing one, like this tailored Wink Black Stretch Cotton Jumpsuit ($223, originally $297), to a cocktail party or upscale dinner? I love the bustier-inspired silhouette. Don't forget to adorn with dazzling accessories and some festive footwear!

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Sayonara Brunch

FabSugar — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 09:00:08 PDT

Tear, a good friend of mine is moving to Japan this week. I'll miss her dearly, but I know she's in for a great adventure. To send her off with good memories, a group of us took her to a favorite eatery, Lime, for a sayonara brunch. I asked you to help me put together a cunningly cute outfit that included a jumpsuit. Remember this was just a brunch, so nothing super fancy.

I started you off with this Foley + Corinna Sling Bag ($450) because it was one of my must-have pieces in the look book. Let's see what you came up with!

Look #1, created by Sarahab145, is casually sleek. I like how the belt adds a fun quirky touch.

Trend Alert: 54 Jumpsuit

FabSugar — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 13:00:22 PDT

Cassie and I would have had hella fun at Studio 54 - but we would have had to coordinate clothes because she donned a 54 Jumpsuit last night at The September Issue premiere in NYC and I bought my Rachel Rachel Roy one last night. Great minds . . .

I am super stoked to flaunt mine. I know jumpsuits are trendy, but this classic black one says staying power, and dance party, to me. I was envisioning mine with strappy metallic sandals and sexy jewelry, but platform boots and hot pink nails are a fun Fall option.
