Look of the Day: Frilly and Funky

FabSugar — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 04:00:22 -0800

I like how poron decided to combine the feminine with the masculine today. Her frilly and funky ensemble is made up of a black tie blouse complimented by a pair of shiny jeans and sneakers. Succinct and to the point.

Here's what she has on:

Top: United Arrows
Jeans: Topshop
Shoes: Unknown
Belt: Unknown

Congrats to poron!

Trend Alert: Black Tie Not Optional

FabSugar — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 15:00:22 -0700

Whether with chain necklaces piled on top, as our example Lindsay Price flaunts, or simply untied, this invitation reads black tie not optional. The black tie detail is the pivotal player here, delivering a masculine/feminine message. Not so into bows? Here is a laid-back alternative. If you exercise your option, do like Lindsay and pile on some glitzy bling, and keep the rest sexy and sleek.

Fab Finger Discount: Mociun Tie-Dyed Crop Top

FabSugar — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 03:50:11 -0700

Are you a tie-dye girl? I am. That's why this Mociun Tie-Dyed Crop Top ($52, originally $173) looks good to me. It almost looks like a DIY project, doesn't it? I love the buttons going down the middle, and the fact that it's cropped and made of hemp. For variation, you can wear it unbuttoned over a simple tank or over a bikini.

A Fabby Halloween: Cirque du Freak

FabSugar — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 09:00:22 -0700

Cirque du Soleil turns 25 years old this year - a quarter of a century of amazing acrobatics, over-the-top costumes, and praise-worthy showmanship. If you've ever been to one of Cirque's shows, you know it's all about the theatrics. Lots and lots of it! Colorful stripes, silly polka dots, top hats, sequins, feathers, bow ties, and ballet slippers are all part of the freaky fun. For makeup ideas, check out Bella's 21 hair and makeup looks you WON'T be wearing come Spring. And unlike everyday life, you can pile on all these things on Oct. 31; the more, the freakier.

Gap European Collection Tie-Neck Pintuck Top: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Thu, 20 Sep 2007 08:30:33 -0700

Lately I've been pondering why girls wear tie-neck blouses because they're generally not flattering. This Gap Tie-Neck Pintuck Top, $88, from the limited-edition European collection, backs up my theory. It looks too matronly and does nothing for a gal's figure. What's your take?

Last night at the Surrogates premiere in LA, Rumer Willis proved she can pull off casual cool as well as fancy. Standing proudly alongside papa Bruce, the stylish cutie paired a body-con black skirt with a rad tie-dye print top - notice how it complements her auburn locks. Sophisticated black-patent pumps complete her look. Aw, don't they look sweet together?

Online Sale Alert! Discounts at Need Supply

FabSugar — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 05:50:22 -0700

The price points at Need Supply are fair to begin with, but add a sale on top and they're amazing. Fabulously funky bags, shoes, dresses, and tees are mostly under $100 right now. This Free People Braided T-Back Tank ($50, originally $88) is ideal for those days when a tank is as far as your creativity goes. But luckily the tie-dye print adds a cool hippie touch. When you're done with the sale, I recommend you veer off into non-sale territory - it's good.

Diane Kruger Bow Tied and Suspendered: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 15:00:22 -0700

One time, I tried wearing a bow tie and suspenders and ended up looking more like a waiter than a fashionista. Boo. At the Inglourious Basterds premiere in Australia, Diane Kruger stepped out wearing a Chanel ensemble, consisting of a sleeveless white shirt, dotted bow-tie, black suspenders, and black tapered trousers. I'm semienvious she has the confidence to wear not one but two men's pieces on the red carpet. No matter what Diane is wearing up top, she always wears feminine footwear, this time Christian Louboutin Mary Janes. Do you approve of this androgyny, or is it too literal for your taste?

Look of the Day: Poolside

FabSugar — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 05:50:22 -0700

Not only is deuxfashion funky in this photo, she's doing it poolside. It's summertime, so why not have a little crazy fun? Said crazy fun includes a fitted tie-dye skirt, fuchsia top, cool brown boots, and statement necklace. I like it all. If you do too, check out the back view.

Here's what she has on:
Top: Urban Outfitters
Skirt: Target
Boots: Target
