We already learned that Fergie and Liv Tyler are attending as guests of Calvin Klein, and Tilda Swinton is accompanying Prada, but as the Costume Institute gala fast approaches on May 5, more details have leaked.

Giorgio Armani is said to be dressing Julia Roberts, George Clooney, Tom Cruise, and Katie Holmes, but it doesn't stop there. Rumor has it that Jennifer Lopez is coming with Alberta Ferretti, Kate Bosworth with Chanel, and Eva Mendes and Rachel Bilson are also attending with Calvin Klein.

They haven't been connected to specific designers yet, but other expected attendees include Renée Zellweger, Scarlett Johansson, Kate Moss, Mary J. Blige, Claire Danes, Mischa Barton, LeBron James, as well as designers Valentino, Tom Ford, Domenico Dolce, Stefano Gabbana, and Donatella Versace.

On Our Radar: Women Choose Shoes Over Bags

FabSugar — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 09:00:22 -0700

Can it be? Have shoes replaced bags as the hottest fashion item? If so, I'm not complaining. I have a growing collection of bags, but as of late, I've become quite bored of the options out there. But the Spring shoe department, which houses such rarities as this MIu Miu Cutout Harlequin Bootie ($890), is a whole different story.

It seems the trend of naming bags after models and celebrities is now being used on footwear. Giambattista Valli has created a Victoria shoe in honor of Mrs. Beckham, while Calvin Klein made a Suri shoe, named after Tom Cruise's daughter. Also, unusual designs and materials used on bags is now being used on footwear. If that's not proof enough, department store Harvey Nichols has reported a 15 percent rise in shoe sales this season and a higher demand for runway heels. Adversely, a recent survey has forecast an 18 percent drop in handbag sales. It's also being predicted that women will soon spend more money on expensive shoes than bags. Do you buy it?

Celebrity Style: Katie Holmes

FabSugar — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 13:00:22 -0800

Katie Holmes (and Tom Cruise) supported their friends at the First Annual Essence Black Women in Hollywood luncheon. Yet again, Katie put her best foot forward in purple peep-toe Loubs and an Alexander McQueen dress, sans belt. I think the actress just solidified the purple-accessory craze in Hollywood!

Alexander Mcqueen Draped Silk Dress, Black/White - $2,280.00	Ash Passion Open Toe Platform Pump - $135.00
Fendi Satin clutch - $705.00	FANTASIA CZ Round Drop Earrings - $130.00

How Would YOU Wear It? Katie Holmes

FabSugar — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 03:00:33 -0800

I'm hesitant to diss Katie Holmes' style because I am of the camp that thinks her fashion sense has grown leaps and bounds post Tom Cruise. That said, simply put, she sometimes dresses too old for her age.

We get it, she has an older man to keep up with, but that doesn't mean she has to dress his age. Here she's wearing something a Glam Ma would wear on Christmas morning. I appreciate the color scheme but I would have worn a shorter satin trench (belted!), a V-neck top, black patent pumps, and perhaps a black belt. Besides, it's way too cold for her long, skinny toes to be creeping out.

How would YOU wear it?

Celebrity Style: David Beckham

FabSugar — Fri, 02 Nov 2007 12:00:22 -0700

Fabbies, this is a historical day for Celebrity Style because a sexy male is gracing our screen for the first time ever. At the Lions For Lambs premiere in LA, it was not Tom Cruise who stood out...it was Victoria Beckham's hot hubby, David. Only he has the ability to sport faded jeans and rugged boots on a red carpet and still outshine all the suits. As the PopSugar girls would say, this is pure manjoyment...so don't be shy, feast!

McGeorge Cotton Plaid Shirt - $165.00	Scotch & Soda Sweater - $135.00
Gucci dark blue chevron stripe silk tie - $132.00	Diesel Zathan in Tailored Inspired Confusion - $180.00
Alfani Santa Fe Boot - $99.99	Diesel Patched Leather Belt - $190.00

Found! Katie Holmes' Missoni Mini Skirt

FabSugar — Wed, 27 Jun 2007 04:00:44 -0700

Remember last week when Katie Holmes sported a mini skirt and Louboutins at the beach in Cannes? To say she was daring is an understatement! Well, for Katie at least. You can be as bold as Katie because I found her M Missoni Striped Miniskirt, $355, while poking around the Fall collections. Preferably, I'd wear it to a fancy soiree instead of the beach...but then again, I'm not Mrs. Tom Cruise!

Trend Alert: Good 'ol Aviators

FabSugar — Tue, 26 Jun 2007 08:20:33 -0700

Sunglass trends come and go but good 'ol aviators are forever. Always cool, always collected, aviators made a major comeback after the film Top Gun - I mean, ok, Tom Cruise made them look good, but I think Val Kilmer made them look really good. Ice Man aside, I know you've got a pair sitting in the back of the drawer and it's time for them to take flight again. For those who've never ventured this way, here are some faves:

Totally Rad Ray Ban Wayfarers

FabSugar — Fri, 15 Dec 2006 15:06:08 -0800

These throwback, 50-year-old Ray Ban Wayfarer Sunglasses made quite a strong comeback in '06. We all remember a young Tom Cruise dancing around in these bad ass glasses in the cult flick Risky Business. And I distinctly remember crushing on Robe Lowe sporting these when I was a wee lassie.

Wayfarers were also the shades of choice in the music biz once upon a time. Famous singers such as: Madonna, Johnny Cash, The Blues Brothers, Bob Dylan and The Smiths also helped made these sunglasses iconic. Nowadays several the hot young celebs like Mischa Barton, Sienna Miller and Kirsten Dunst are wearing them.

The original black, smaller frame style caught the eye of Mary-Kate Olsen who apparently traded in her immensely over-sized ones for this more feminine frame. Coming this January, the smaller frame model will be back on the shelves selling for $130. Try calling your local Ray-Ban retailer to place a pre-order for the smaller frame originals. In the meantime, the the larger frame Ray-Ban Sunglasses are available for $114.99.
