Behind the Seams: Elizabeth and James Launch Party at Selfridges

FabSugar — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 13:00:22 -0700

London got a little more stylish last night when Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen showed up to launch their clothing line overseas. Elizabeth and James is going to be sold at Selfridges - I'm sure that excites many a British girl, including our own FabSugar UK. Among the locals who helped the twins celebrate were Henry Holland, Alexa Chung, Pixie Geldof, and Daria Zhukova, designer of Kova&T. Clothes were shown, pictures were taken, a merry time was had by all.

Patricia Field Limited-Edition diet Coke City Collection Bottles: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Mon, 05 May 2008 07:00:08 -0700

Patricia Field's latest project has nothing to do with clothes. Instead, the stylist has lent her creativity to the limited-edition diet Coke City Collection bottles, sold exclusively at Selfridges. "The designs represent diet Coke as a sexy, sassy brand perfectly compatible with today's woman," Pat said. I'd love to get my hands on one. Would you?

On Our Radar: Miss Selfridge Presents New Vintage Range

FabSugar — Wed, 23 Apr 2008 02:00:22 -0700

Vintage-lovers, your chance at finding one-of-a-kind clothes just increased! Miss Selfridge has just added a vintage section full of one-of-a-kind pieces, ranging from the '30s to the '80s. Right now, the boutique is heavily stocked with pretty, bright dresses. Some items are a little too '80s for my taste (can we say shoulder pads?), but others are quite ladylike. This Red and Cream Striped Dress ($80) would be complete with a wide, black studded belt.

Online Sale Alert! Up to 70% Off at Miss Selfridge

FabSugar — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 03:00:22 -0800

London brand Miss Selfrige is having a mega sale so if you're not yet worn out from Black Friday and Cyber Monday, feel free to participate. Dresses, tops, jackets, lingerie, jewelry, shoes, and bags are up to 70 percent off the original price.

Chartreuse is a bold color of the moment so this Miss Selfridge Algae Slouchy Tee ($36, originally $67) will be a perfect addition to your closet. With a black tank, it will keep you warm and stylish.

I apologize in advance if you're shopped out after this...I'm just doing my job!

Celeb Style: Scarlett Johansson

FabSugar — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 12:00:22 -0700

Dolce and Gabbana's makeup muse did some promoting at Selfridges department store in London earlier today. She usually plays up her sex-kitten persona, but here she opted for a ladylike look by Dolce and Gabbana. The pretty floral blouse is tempered by a long and lean pencil skirt and finished with a pair of nude peep-toe pumps. But it wouldn't be Scarlett without some sexy - her red lips help achieve just that.

Dolce & Gabbana Summer Flowers Silk Top - $679.32	Tulip pencil skirt - $59.00
Style&co. Shoes, Celine Suede Peep Toe Pumps - $59.00	Crislu "royal crown" cz ring - $75.00
Rose Studs - $25.00	Christopher Kon 218 Clutch - $150.00

I never thought I'd use the words London Fashion Week and wildlife in the same sentence, but that day has come my Fabbies. Wildlife Works, a company created in 1997 to protect wilderness habitats, made its fashion debut at last week's London Fashion Week, and there's no tree-hugging styles here . . .

"We're serious business people. This is not a mission-led proposition. It's all about the fashion taking off. We are a fashion brand that responds to the consumer in the developed market. We want to sell into Selfridges and Harvey Nichols and upmarket boutiques, and we want to develop that fashion imagery," said chief executive Andrew Smith.
