You could ease your way into the oncoming season, or you might just romp into Fall like Fab reader goodbadnfab. It's a fresh way to wear the Summer-typical style: just add a touch of warmth with a cardigan or jacket, and pair with boots, or socks and clogs. Transitional dressing to a T.

Trend Alert: Cropped Knits

FabSugar — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 06:50:22 PDT

Margherita Missoni lives on a different fashion planet. Imagine having Missoni blood pumping through your veins. No wonder the newly appointed accessory designer for the house dares to go there. There being mixing printed pants with cropped knits. Her silky Missoni zigzag pants are the coolest warm-weather counterpart to her sexy cropped knit tank. Because of the high waist, this crop top forgives, only revealing a smart sliver of skin. We can't all be rendezvousing on the Italian coast right now, but we can emulate this luxe look.

Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent Knows Subtle Summery

FabSugar — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 05:50:22 PDT

I'm still sad I didn't get my hands on her Target pieces - did anyone manage to scoop up the Cynthia Vincent for Target gladiator wedges?! In an effort to move on, I'm inspecting Cynthia's Summer collection. Her sweet silk basics are aplenty, in candy colors of lemon yellow, hot pink, and pool blue. An array of black, including the perfect cropped silk sweat pants and tap pants, are collectors items. A metallic print and splatter dye ivory print keep things unique. Bra tops and a hot pink dolman sleeve hoodie are added bliss. Lastly, the shoes - knotted sandals and exotic wedges - continue the lustfest.

Trend Alert: Multiple Bow Attack

FabSugar — Fri, 28 May 2010 06:00:07 PDT

Emma Watson emoted youthful flair at the National Movie Awards. We love everything about her emsemble, from the tweed Karl Lagerfeld jumper to her Christian Louboutin Miss Butterfly pumps. Look closely to see the multiple bow attack on her shoes. We love how these bows add a girlie touch to any outfit, and the way we see it, the more, the merrier.
