Trend Alert: Bubble Shorts

FabSugar — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 05:50:22 -0700

Nicole Richie is back, with a fashion vengeance. Not that she ever left, really. Leave it to Nicole to bust out bubble shorts just weeks after having her second babe. Here she is leaving a Selena Gomez concert in LA looking every bit the fashion-forward mom. If you've got the gams, go for the bubbles. Make sure you leave everything else easy and sleek, like Nicole, and the color palette simple. Tossing a vest on is a smart addition, and heels will maximize your leg appeal.

Trend Alert: Studded Shorts

FabSugar — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 06:50:22 -0700

We all own a pair of denim cutoffs, but what about studded shorts? Like studly vests, they add a unique rocker-girl vibe to your overall look and are a quick and simple DIY. Personally, I refuse to pay top dollar for such a fleeting yet cute trend. That's why I headed to my local fabric shop for a pack of studs and a glue gun. $6 and 20 minutes later, presto chango - studded shorts!

Trend Alert: Urban Safari

FabSugar — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 14:00:22 -0700

Just because a look is casual that doesn't mean it isn't party apropos. Sophia Bush graced the red carpet for the OP campaign launch party in a getup fit for an urban safari. And let's take a moment to admire her fit stems - nice. It's refreshing to see something utilitarian and cool, versus dolled up and decked. Because of her basics - army-green shorts, white tank, brown blazer - the outfit required some glam, which she delivered via sexy crisscross Miu Miu sandals, a cascading gold necklace, and dainty clutch. The right mix of casual and lady will lead you to your very own faboo urban safari. Safe travels!

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Fourth of July Water-Skiing

FabSugar — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 09:00:22 -0700

How did you celebrate the Fourth of July? I spent the long weekend in Tahoe enjoying some sun, yummy BBQ, and water-skiing. It was a hot one, so I needed you to help me put together a cute outfit that would withstand the natural elements. I also didn't want to spend over $50 - were you up to the challenge?

I started you off with these Wet Seal Acid Wash Shorts ($13, originally $22) because they were dirt cheap and looked amazing against my glowing tan. Let's see my favorite looks!

Look #1, created by chloe bella, incorporates fun accessories. I adore the starfish necklace.

Fab Finger Discount: Express Silk Pleated Shorts

FabSugar — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 06:50:22 -0700

Shorts have a tendency to look casual but not when they're silky sleek. I've been keeping a close eye on these Express Silk Pleated Shorts ($20, originally $60) since they first arrived online and I gotta say, patience pays. I'd wear them to work with a loose tank, lots of baubles, and chunky platform sandals. Don't you love the color?

Celebrity Style: Kate Moss

FabSugar — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 11:00:22 -0700

Kate Moss and boyfriend Jamie Hince set out on a shopping excursion in London yesterday. Is that Browns I see in the background? The super stuck to her usual uniform - black blazer, Ray-Ban Wayfarers - but switched things up in a pair of pleated denim shorts. Those large pleats remind me of the pleats on Alexander Wang's Gap/CFDA khaki shorts. I smell a trend, do you?
