FabSugar — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 14:05:08 -0700

The Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue models know - having too many swimsuits is never a bad thing. I'll add to that, especially if you live in the water during summertime like I do. Personally, I tend to veer toward bandeau-style bikinis because they're sporty chic, comfortable, and don't cause tan lines. What's your swimsuit style - string, monokini, cutout, asymmetrical, halter? No prob, I've got you covered. Newlyweds in the house, this is your chance to nab a sexy suit for your steamy honeymoon!

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Midnight Bowling Madness

FabSugar — Wed, 06 May 2009 02:50:22 -0700

Last weekend, I entertained my friends with my bowling skills, or rather, my lack thereof. After a late dinner, we headed over to the local alley for some midnight bowling. Once the clock struck 12, the bright lights turned off, the parents went home, and the big kids came out and played. Even though my score was under 100, I still had a lot of fun! I asked you to help me find a fun outfit for my bowling excursion. Let's see what you conjured up . . .

I started you off with these Billabong Sock Me Socks ($14) because I adore the zebra print!

On Our Radar: Become a Swell Stylist

FabSugar — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 06:00:22 -0700

You know Swell, my go-to place for fresh beachy finds - I hit it up before every major vacay? Did you know they are seeking stylists for their sweet site? It's pretty cool. This month, Elise Gray is the featured stylist. What that means is Ms. Gray gets a fun little bio and photo on the site, she picks her favorite products (which she actually makes a one percent commission on), she shares inspiration boards, and she gets not 15 minutes, but months of fame. You know where I'm going with this. This could be you. Enter yourself, and Swell's panel of professional stylists, designers, and buyers will do the judging. Good luck!
