Celebrity Style: Jennifer Connelly

FabSugar — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 11:00:22 -0800

Polka dots tend to connote whimsy, but actress Jennifer Connelly wears the print with complete maturity. She attended the Paris photocall of The Day the Earth Stood Still in a delicate polka-dot blouse, a black mini skirt, and cap-toe Lanvin platforms. She kept her accessories to a minimum, allowing her black and creme palette to speak volumes.

MARC BY MARC JACOBS 'Carousel Dots' Top - $238.00	Ever Kent High Waist Miniskirt - $264.00
Preston & york tuxedo-stripe tights - $10.00	Vince Camuto "Bellai" Pump - $120.00
Rachel Leigh Olivia Bow Ring - $58.00	Women's Color-Block Satin Clutches - $16.50

Celebrity Style: Gisele Bundchen

FabSugar — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 11:00:22 -0700

Wearing form-fitting jeans in the heat can cause sticky, icky situations but Gisele Bundchen took care of the problem by opting for Paige Premium Denim's Roxbury crop jeans. This is the ideal way to keep cool and show off your shoes. The model continued her streak of effortlessness by throwing on a casual but cute ivory crochet top, an airy pink scarf, and comfy white flats.

Pink Wave Scarf ($26)	Gabriella Rocha Lolla ($60)

Trend Alert: Mochachinos

FabSugar — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 08:00:22 -0800

While I am more of a Chai latte girl, these ladies are making me yearn for a Mochachino. If you looked in my closet the least color you will see is beige or camel or tan - you get my point. When I feel like going colorless I prefer black or grey. But always one with an open mind about fashion, I may reconsider. Rachel, Sarah and Emma prove a sip of a Mochachino does provide quite a jolt.

Trend Alert: Linen Handbags

FabSugar — Tue, 29 Jan 2008 09:00:22 -0800

Dainty, urban and eco-friendly, linen handbags are popping up all over. I've had my eye on the Foley + Corinna one for a while now, but its cousins aren't too shabby either. I especially love the colored and metallic piping details. For something a bit more casual and weekend-friendly give one of these lovelies a whirl.

Look of the Day: Safari Garden

FabSugar — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 07:00:22 -0700

I took notice of Rabbit88's outfit because the skirt reminds me so much of Prada's Spring collection. I love how she took the look into safari garden territory with the khaki blazer. Nice work!

Here's what she has on:

Tank: Express
Jacket: Express
Belt: Betsey Johnson
Skirt: Tocca
Shoes: Steve Madden

Congrats to Rabbit88!
