Look of the Day: Sugary Sweet

FabSugar — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 06:00:22 -0800

SS2 looks like she's ready for Valentine's Day. I'm smitten with her sugary sweet abstract print dress. To add some diversity to her outfit, she contrasted her flirty frock with platform boots and a stunning statement necklace - nice!

Here's what she has on:

Dress: Sweet 16 Finds
Shoes: Unknown
Necklace: Unknown

Congrats to SS2!

This Week's Fab Favorite: Rihanna

FabSugar — Fri, 12 Dec 2008 16:00:22 -0800

How I love Rihanna, let me count the ways . . . Severe statement necklace a la Burberry. Perfectly fitted black jumpsuit - check out the sharp shoulders, cropped leg, and pockets. Pointy toe pumps. And smiley face nails! Not only is the jumpsuit/necklace combo fantastic, the playful nails are pure Rihanna style. She knocked our socks off with her anti-ball gown at the Jingle Bell Ball in London. Daring and creative looks like this granted her a spot on our Queen of the Red Carpet 2008 poll.

Trend Alert: Top Your Turtleneck

FabSugar — Fri, 12 Dec 2008 06:00:22 -0800

Like artwork, jewelry needs a nice backdrop. To make a sizzling statement, look to Natasha Bedingfield for inspiration and top your turtleneck. Layering a bold necklace over a nondescript turtleneck gives you high impact without breaking the bank. And, it's a cozy chic look. The key to getting this right is keeping the rest of your outfit simple so your jewels can shine against their cloth canvas.

Best of 2008: Favorite New Trend

FabSugar — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 07:00:22 -0800

It's hard keeping up with trends; nevertheless, it's an obsession of mine. While I bring you daily trend alerts, there were several trends that kept our attention throughout the year. Some tempered volume - shoulder love and the new crop of pants - these trends are for the more daring fashion darling. Meanwhile, the It bag gave way to the It shoe. Designers showcased over-the-top shoes on the Spring and Fall runways - to many a model's demise. We bought more clutches this year than ever before (oops). Countless celebrities shined thanks to statement necklaces and florals bloomed like crazy. We know which trend we hope lives on, what about you?

Love It or Hate It? Lee Angel Judi Cascading Necklace

FabSugar — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 06:00:22 -0700

When I saw this Lee Angel Judi Cascading Necklace ($275) on a mannequin in Neiman Marcus, I thought, talk about statement necklace! The bottom row of beads are enormous, ornament-like. Statement jewels are huge right now, but would you wear one this dramatic?

Missoni Stone Embellished Necklace: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 14:00:22 -0700

I pretty much love everything Missoni does, but this Missoni Stone Embellished Necklace ($1,465) is freaky. It reminds me of an alien creature. I feel like it would be activated when putting it on, and that wouldn't be a good thing. Statement piece or scary piece?

Trend Alert: Long and Lovely Beads

FabSugar — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 03:00:22 -0700

A subtle way to wear a bohemian rhapsody is by trailing some long and lovely beads around your neck. SJP has been advocating statement necklaces all year, here, she lightened things up with some bronze double stranded pearls. Pearls are a fine option, and there's so much more to play dress up with. Play away . . .

This Week's Fab Favorite: Blake Lively

FabSugar — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 16:00:22 -0700

Try to stop staring at Blake's legs and focus on her teal Vena Cava Resort zigzag print jumper, her black Miu Miu bowler, and Gemma Redux statement necklace. Blake has been the best dressed of all her co-stars this week during her promotions for Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2; she was also Celebrity Styled in a chic jean outfit. But I have to say all four of the young ladies have been looking smashing. And remember, fellow sister Alexis Bledel got last week's vote.But Blake is just so foxy. I'm adding this adorable sophisticated romper to my wish list. Her necklace brings the ethnic feel home. Black patent pumps polish off any look and also help boost one's stems. Her oversized Miu Miu is an It bag in the making. But the one accessory that always melts my heart with this girl is her beaming smile. Happy girl, happy outfit.

Reese was doing just that, in a tried and true shopping outfit: Belle by Sigerson Morrison flats, crisp white cropped jeans, and an easy throw-on, throw-off pewter top.

Blake is forming quite a fan club and we can all see why . . . just look at her! She is the quintessential American girl. Blonde, beautiful, bubbly, and on her way to visit ABC's Good Morning America with the rest of the adorable cast of Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2. There's always room in my week for a great jeans look. Blake made this her own by throwing on layered aquamarine beaded necklaces and natural cork wedges. As always, her hair looks amazing and her smile is dazzling. I don't know if I would have opted for a black bowling bag, but Blake makes it work.
