I Love Your ShopStyle: Dazzling Evening

FabSugar — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 05:50:22 -0700

Looking to have a dazzling evening? Look no further than BeautifulnDirtyRich's snazzy ensemble. She shows us it doesn't take much to stun. A gold sequin dress is a must and equally important are touches of navy. So the next time you're tempted to pair gold with black, think again, think navy. Still eve-appropo, way more Fab.

The Look For Less: Emma Roberts's Sequined Cardigan

FabSugar — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 05:00:22 -0800

Style-savvy Emma Roberts stopped by The Jay Leno Show in an ensemble that's enviable head to toe. What I'm majorly attracted to is the black sequined cardigan she's wearing over her Kova & T gray tank. It dazzles just enough, but it's not overly glitzy. Also love the subtle pouf shoulders. If you're with me, I found a similar sequined cardi that will give you the look, minus the wallet burn.

This Silence & Noise Sequin Cardigan ($68) is similar enough to Emma's version, right? Sure, it doesn't have the shoulder pouf, but a couple shoulder pads would take care of that. I like that it's cropped and sans buttons. Very cool, I'm sold.

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Apples to Apples Game Night!

FabSugar — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 04:00:22 -0800

When it's cold and rainy outside, I don't feel like painting the town red. Instead, I invite my friends over for a rambunctious (semi-competitive) game night. That's exactly why PartySugar and I hosted an Apples to Apples party! I was looking for something comfy to wear, what did you come up with?

I started you off with this J.Crew Microsequin Cardigan ($99, originally $198). I adore the longer cut and subtle shimmer. Let's see my favorite outfits!

Look #1, created by maria212134, incorporates cool white jeans. I also love those cutout oxfords.

See the rest.

Keds, Sequins, Alice + Olivia

Keds. What's not to like? Add sequins to the classic, and it's fashion gold. Alice + Olivia is teaming up with the iconic brand creating a fancier version of Keds’ classic Champion style. Available for $88 in four colors - black, silver, pale pink, and safari green - they will launch this Spring at select Neiman Marcus stores, neimanmarcus.com, as well as at Alice + Olivia boutiques and aliceandolivia.com.A+O founder Stacey Bendet explains: “I don’t think I removed Keds from my feet as a kid. I can’t even count how many pairs I had. We decided to do a collaboration that would bring a little Alice + Olivia fun to the 2010 Keds Champion.” Super cute, enough said.

Paint It Black - Fab's 30-Day Fashion Challenge! Rock On

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 09:00:22 -0800

I love live music. And I have a concert uniform. My latest uniform is what you see here. Flat, fringed booties, rockin' sequin leggings, layered tops, and a big smile. This dolman sleeve cashmere sweater has served me well - so well it has a couple holes here and there, but I refuse to mend them. Sometimes wear and tear is a Fab thing.

We want to see you Paint It Black. Join our Paint It Black fashion group to post your looks, and we'll feature you on Fab! Click over to see my PIB outfit details and start painting yourself black!

Trend Alert: Sequin Totes

FabSugar — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 06:50:22 -0800

Confession: I adore slightly cheesy, totally fabulous sequin totes. Who doesn't appreciate a little bling on the beach? Or, at the grocery store. Just because the holidays are over doesn't mean sequins are - they're always welcome in my world. I was once gifted a white cloth tote with silver sequins, and I get compliments at the beach and beyond - imagine the sun's reflection on each and every shimmering sequin. Lindsay's sequin tote totally complemented her laid-back St. Barts ensemb. The best part? These dazzlers go day-to-night in a fashion flash.

Trend Alert: Metallica Minis

FabSugar — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 13:00:22 -0800

Here's a fine example of one festive piece that goes a long way. A lot of friends tell me they prefer dresses over skirts - there's less planning involved. Well, if you examine Jessica Stroup's fine 'fit she wore to the second annual Golden Globes Salute to Young Hollywood Party, it's all about basics . . . and a metallica mini. Less bold than a metallica jacket, I think you could push this party piece beyond the basics. Push it real good.
