Valentine's Day Lingerie Guide: The Sexy Tomboy

Brittney Stephens — Wed, 09 Feb 2011 03:04:04 PST

The sexy tomboy prefers her man's oversize button-down to a strappy garter getup any day and feels right at home in a tiny pair of briefs. Think Calvin Klein underwear ads, Sigourney Weaver in Alien, and Freja Beha Erichsen's perfect bedhead. She may be low-key, but she's still high-fashion - and proves that you can totally be seductive while staying on the sporty side. Click through to see all of my picks for the hot-to-trot tomboy.

Trend Alert: Get Physical

Hannah Weil — Thu, 06 Jan 2011 05:58:05 PST

The call to get physical was seen all over 2011 Spring Fashion Week. From Michael Kors's streamline sportswear to Prada's brights, it's clear that sporty is the new chic. Just take a peek at Maryna Linchuk showing off her sporty sensibility in the latest issue of Vogue Germany. Sure, an athletic bra is a bold way to go, but there are other ways to channel the trend. Mix and match a colorblock top with a chic pair of harem sweats; just be sure to finish with heels - your sneakers are better left for the gym.

Trend Alert: Wrapped in Gray

FabSugar — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 07:50:22 PDT

I've died and gone to gray heaven. My everyday neutral has been sexified by model Selita Ebanks, designer Haider Ackermann, and actress Paula Patton. They are all wrapped in gray, and I'm wrapped in envy. While gray is the perfect canvas for a colorful accessory, here it stands alone just fine. While the color may be safe, the cuts are anything but; ruched, draped, asymmetrical, slit, and one-shouldered, the party never ends. If you're seeking one dress to take you through the season, look no further.

Fab's 15 Fall Faves From Shopbop

FabSugar — Fri, 07 Aug 2009 07:50:00 PDT

Every time I peruse Shopbop, I end up with a cart-full of amazing items. Can I afford them all? By no means, but that doesn't stop me from obsessing. The retailer has stocked a staggering amount of cold-weather gear to keep us cozy and ahead of the fashion game come Fall. I'll give you a few hints about my favorites: studs, sequins, lace, leather, mixed metals, red, and bows. This Catherine Malandrino Gramercy Jacket ($795) is one I'd like to get out of my cart and into my hands ASAP. The fusion of leather and lace, and that delicately draped front, is divine.

Trend Alert: Sassy Sweats

FabSugar — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 13:00:22 PDT

I feel like it was only yesterday I was frustrated with celebrities who wore sweats while carrying their designer handbags - sorry, so not Fab. Luckily, those days are pretty much over, but with sassy sweats on the rise, I may have to accept the trend. Don't get me wrong, I'm all about some sassiness when walking Annabelle around the 'hood or going on a hike, but there's a time and a place. Sweatshirts can be an adorable ode to Jazzercise, case in point: Bosworth in her faded lavender Harlow sweatie running errands in LA. Denim shorts and quirky loafers prevent her from being too sloppy or '80s. Let's get physical, physical . . .

Dress Me Up: Bundle of Cool

FabSugar — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 04:00:22 PST

Among the things I love about Fall is that you can dress comfortably without being slobby. Roomy sweaters are the way to go - they provide warmth, hide the effects of comfort food, and make you a feel like a bundle of cool.

Shopbop has a collection of sweaters that fit the bill. This b.chyll Sable Cashmere Sweater ($418) is extra spacious and comes with handy oversize pockets. Sweet. Just be sure to keep the bottom portion of your outfit slim to balance out the look.

Trend Alert: Poncho Power

FabSugar — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 09:00:22 PDT

Anyone who has ever worn a poncho can attest to the fact that they are a cumbersome way to keep warm. I still haven't worn the one I purchased from Peru three years ago. Oops.

You'll be delighted to know that Shopbop has a collection of ponchos that are more convenient to cover up with. For instance, this VPL cashmere poncho allows you to freely wave your arms, whereas a more traditional kind with no armholes doesn't. It's your call. Poncho power!
