Super-Rich Snow Gear

FabSugar — Thu, 16 Nov 2006 11:14:32 -0800

The Winter ski season is on its way, but this year, why not suit up to hit the slopes FabSugar style? Throw away those old and ugly Obermeyer or CB one-pieces and ramp up for some hot-looking and super-rich snow gear that will make you look like a pro whether you choose to actually ski the moguls or just try to land a cute millionaire mogul in the lodge. These items are sure to look amazing either on or off of the mountain.

Chanel Quilted Leather Skis represent the epitome of luxury. Created for the label's Fall/Winter 2006 Sport collection, these skis have a wooden core but are covered in a textured, quilted leather. I doubt these are going to handle hardcore bumps, but they will sure make you look great. You can buy them for a mere $2,550 directly through a Chanel Boutique by calling (212)355-5050.

The Louis Vuitton Monogram Cashmere Ski Hat is made from soft and warm cashmere jacquard weave. This functional accessory, paired with an all black outfit, will make you will look fly as you zip by. Buy it in gray or chestnut here for $330.

The Moncler Gamme Rouge Pudre de Diamont coat is jaw-dropping. It's made from hand-embroidered silk and organza and filled with Moncler's renowned and luxuriously warm, buttery down. This is one investment that will surely keep you warm in style. The coat isn't available online, but you can purchase it for $8,900 by calling Barney's New York at (888) 222-7639.

Designer Spotlight: Erin Snow

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Jan 2007 11:55:46 -0800

I hear a cold front is very soon going to hit the east coast so it may finally put people in the snow bunny mood. Make sure you're a cute snow bunny - is there any other kind? - with Erin Snow: the creation of New York City based designer, Erin Isakov, a winter sport enthusiast with a love for both skiing and fashion. Frustrated with the clumsily masculine and excessively feminine ski and snowboard gear on the market, Erin took it upon herself to come up with a solution. She launched Erin Snow, a chic line that combines high fashion with winter functionality, in Fall 2004.

The Erin Snow collection offers both high performance gear and stylish sportswear in flattering styles and silhouettes that can go directly from the slopes to the streets. The collection is designed with the highest quality fabrics selected from Switzerland, Italy and Austria, the look is all-American luxury. The result is a versatile collection that shows you do not have to sacrifice quality or style to dress for the winter months.

If you have a weakness for super-rich snow gear here are some of her key pieces which can be bought online. But be warned: this Aspen-worthy garb is not cheap; prices start at $288. Otherwise her luxe ski wear can be found at Bloomingdales, Searle, and athletic retailers nationwide.

Fab Site: GucciEyeWeb.com

FabSugar — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 13:00:22 -0700

Gucci is going super high-tech. You heard that Geek? It has just launched an interactively cool site, GucciEyeWeb.com, in conjunction with Gucci Eyeweb, a new line of sunglasses for 18 to 25 year olds. Instead of using professional models, like on its main site, Gucci's worldwide customers are the stars here. Users are asked to upload their photos, which are then shown over a 3-D image of the sunglasses, like below. Log in next month when Gucci swaps the current sunglasses - purchase them now for $220 - for ski goggles, just in time for the Winter slopes.

Trend Alert: Mirrored Lenses

FabSugar — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 09:00:22 -0700

Drew is a kid at heart. That is why we love her so. She sported some cutesy pink mirrored lenses in NYC and, while her outfit was super casual, they reminded us of her perky personality. I suspect hers might even be the Oakley for Paul Smith limited editions. Plus, Proenza Schouler sent mirrored shades down their Spring runway. I have a super fun vintage pair - they were my mom's ski shades in the '80s - that are turquoise with silver mirrors. People seem to love them, maybe it's because they can admire themselves in the reflection while attempting to pay attention to me . . .
