Spotted! dVb Style Sunnies

FabSugar — Thu, 22 Mar 2007 07:55:22 -0700

Last month we warned you about dVb Style fashion world domination. The dVb sunglasses were next on the roster and they have been spotted at Shopbop! These are three of the four styles featured and they all cost $250. As you can see, they are, not surprisingly, vintage inspired and oversized. Each pair comes with a case, storage pouch, and cleaning cloth - dVb's got you covered. What do you all think of them?? I like the black ones in the middle; they are very incognito. They'd look fab with my trench!

Here is one of my newest denim discoveries. I like [deener] because their denim is simple, yet sexy, and has really sleek lines. I'm not a fan of a lot of branding or bells and whistles on my jeans and if you're the same way check them out.

They are a premium denim brand with a unique take on the classic denim look. [deener] denim features premium fabrication and authentic washes and they are not just about jeans…it’s a full denim collection with a diverse selection of jackets, vests, jumpsuits, skirts, dresses, shorts, knickers and outerwear. Created with fabrics sourced from the finest mills in Italy & Japan and distinctive, custom-designed hardware from Argentina, there is a clear attention to detail and quality in craftsmanship.

Sparkling Silver Nails

FabSugar — Mon, 22 Jan 2007 11:30:13 -0800

There is no doubt metallics have staying power. This trend is actually transpiring all the way down to your fingertips! That's right, - beauty and fashion are cyclical and silver nails are back. Just look at these silver toes at the Chanel Spring show. What makes this particular photo even cooler is the model's sprinkling of star tattoos.

Here are three of my favorite strictly silver polishes for those of you trendsetters brave enough to veer away from safe and simple light pink polishes.

OPI Rinse Charming Nail Lacquer, $7.50, not only has a cute and catchy name but it has a deep silver hue to it. This is definitely the deepest out of these three colors. In my experience OPI polishes last a long time and are true to color. Try it and let me know what you think!

Deborah Lippmann Collection Nail Color in Stardust, $15, offers your nails protection from doing the dishes, UVA/UVB rays and everyday wear and tear. This is a designer line of polish brought to you by the woman who is known for doing many a manicure for celebs and photo shoots. Deborah Lippman knows best! This color is a lighter, more platinum frost.

Cover Girl Continuous Color 3 In 1 Nail Polish in Silver Orchid # 140, $2.79, makes do it yourself manicures a breeze; this polish includes a base coat and a top coat all in one. This shade is very light. Wear one coat for a subtle shimmer, or two coats for more of a dramatic looking silver hue.

Trend Alert: White Accessories

FabSugar — Wed, 17 Jan 2007 10:29:35 -0800

It is official: winter yellow is in and Spring white is in. So what to do during these transitional weather months? I suggest incorporating the Spring trends in small doses. Here is a trend I'm pretty excited about because I'm feeling a bit white overwhelmed after the Golden Globe visions in white, but I have been seeing all these amazing white accessories popping up. A word to the wise: splurge on items you can keep clean easier - like jewelry and handbags - skimp on shoes because believe you me these are the hardest to keep tidy! Here are my designer and non-designer picks:

J. Crew Tumbled leather antibes hobo, $325.

White Mt. Giselle Flat, $44.95.

Urban Outfitters Quilted Kisslock, $28.

Giuseppe Zanotti Python Print Sandals, $495.

Lots more so, read more

Forever 21 Beaded Bracelet, $2.80.

Marc Jacobs Christy Calfskin Hobo Bag, $995 (pre-order).

Old Navy Women's Studded Wallet, on sale for $3.99 (was $7.50).

Dolce & Gabbana 90MM Wedge Loafer, $595.

Spring Peek: The New Suits

FabSugar — Fri, 12 Jan 2007 16:03:05 -0800

Judging by your response from the recent Look of The Day: Androgynous Cool I think lots of you will be excited for this Spring Peek. Menswear inspired suiting was a prevalent look on the runways and I think it was refreshing and sharp at the same time. Whether deconstructed or perfectly tailored, like at Chloe (pictured here), The New Suits are as empowering for women as ever before. Move over boys!

Spring Peek: Bloomers

FabSugar — Thu, 11 Jan 2007 16:29:38 -0800

Today a Sugar girl received a beautiful bouquet of orange roses with red berries and Stargazer lilies. They inspired me to deliver you this Spring Peek showing you all the big bloomers that graced the runways. Rosettes, big flower prints and fabric corsages popped on garments adding volume and sweetness. Bloomers even showed up as show garnish: Yves Saint Laurent had thousands of violets sewn onto the floor of his runway - tripping up the models, literally. This Spring, say it with flowers. I think Alexander McQueen, shown here, screamed it with flowers!

Spring Peek: White Lightening

FabSugar — Wed, 10 Jan 2007 12:49:48 -0800

The Spring runways were especially heavenly because of this Spring Peek. White lightening struck many designers this time around and this color manages to look great against tan skin in the summer and pale, flushed skin in the winter. I welcome this look by Thakoon with open (pale) arms. These flowy or crisp white looks, primarily in dresses and separates, can also serve as modern wedding dresses. Soon-to-be brides open your eyes, here are some beautiful white ensembles.

FabSugar — Tue, 09 Jan 2007 14:52:14 -0800

Move aside plump, curvy hearts and make way for bright and bold superstars and superstripes. Stars twinkled the Spring runways, and not just little cutesy ones - like the ones on the headpieces at Sonia Rykiel - but bold ones - like the sparklers at Viktor & Rolf (shown). Don't forget to wish upon a star this Spring...And stripes are back and bolder than ever! Choose one of these Spring Peeks for your graphic fix this Spring and be Supercute!
