This Week's Fab Faves

FabSugar — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 13:00:08 -0700

It's been a busy week with the start of New York Fashion Week, but you better believe I've been keeping a close eye on those stylish celebs. This week's gang is mostly fancied up - George Clooney's girl Elisabetta Canalis worked the red carpet in teal blue Roberto Cavalli, Eva Mendes balanced sexy and elegant, and Penelope Cruz experimented with a new color. But in my humble opinion, Alexis Bledel stole the show in her one-shoulder Christian Siriano. I mean, between the red lips, the two-tone frock, and the red pumps, it's perfection. See who else dazzled us.

Alexis Bledel's Navy Draped Dress: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Sat, 15 Aug 2009 02:36:22 -0700

I'm usually a huge advocate of Alexis Bledel's unique red carpet ensembles but this particular one left me hanging. The actress wore a navy draped dress by Sachin and Babi for Ankasa, black satin sandals, and a rad studded clutch to the screening of her new Post Grad flick - can't wait to see the movie. I appreciate the avant-garde aesthetic and metallic embellishments, but I'm not a huge fan of the longer hemline and the draped pleating at the hips. Maybe it would look better cinched in with a belt? Tell me what you think!

Teen Choice Awards: Best Dressed

FabSugar — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 21:04:15 -0700

While there were lots of winners at the Teen Choice Awards, only one lovely lady will take home the award for best dressed. Black and white seemed to work the best on the green grass carpet. Jordana, Leighton, and Emma all showed different takes on the classic color combo. Ashley Tisdale rocked our worlds with her two-tone dress and rad accessories, while Alexis delivered some much needed quirk. I think I have a feeling who takes home this crown . . .

Teen Choice Awards: Alexis Bledel

Alexis Bledel showed off her baby blues tonight wearing a silk and lace Opening Ceremony cobalt dress. For a quirky cute touch, the Post Grad star dressed her feet with a pair of bright orange and light gray patent leather sandals by Loeffler Randall. Of course, I love it - she stepped out of the sexy mini dress box - do you?

Alexis Bledel Plays Dress-Up

FabSugar — Tue, 04 Aug 2009 04:50:22 -0700

It's hard to break out of the cutesy child actor box once you've wedged yourself into it but Post Grad star, Alexis Bledel, is up for the challenge. The 27-year-old actress and former Gillmore Girl has since moved on to embrace a more stylish and sophisticated demeanor as proven in this fun '80s-inspired photo shoot.

“I try to get away from the way people see me on the show in little ways, try to dress older or just differently,” says Bledel. “I try not to wear anything that makes me look too young because that only aggravates the idea that I’m young and sweet like my character on [Gilmore Girls].” Alexis's recent red-carpet looks had me awed but seeing her in a leather YSL unitard is an entirely different story . . .

Alexis Bledel in Cutout Cushnie Et Ochs: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 13:00:22 -0700

No one can argue Alexis Bledel is a serious cutie. She stepped up her style at the Tribeca Film Festival in a cutout Cushnie et Ochs LBD. The cutouts are subtle enough and this look is far from tarty. Her swirly black embroidered Sergio Rossi sandals also provide a peekaboo illusion. Pulled-back hair, modern Sasha Primak jewelry, and a black clutch keep all eyes on those cutouts. What do you think - does Alexis pull it off?

Trend Alert: Moody Florals

FabSugar — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 05:00:22 -0700

It's a dark and cloudy day, but you don't want to reflect that in your wardrobe. Moody florals should do the trick. Dark floral patterns are the perfect way to incorporate darkness with color. Check out Nicky's fun flowers and Alexis's sharp contrast, and who can resist Fergie's Gucci confection? Note how all three ladies are working different looks but one thing remains constant: the moody motif.

This Week's Fab Favorite: Alexis Bledel

FabSugar — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 16:00:22 -0700

Here are some fun facts about Alexis we didn't know: her first language is Spanish, she is 5'7" (doesn't she look petite, though?), and her favorite band is Radiohead. Considering the fact that she looked smashing in a Mischen dress, Alaia heels, and a cool gold clutch at the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 premiere, atop those other fun facts, Alexis is bonafide Fab. I always thought she was adorable on Gilmore Girls - those blue eyes are amazing - but she just went up a few notches.

I like that even with a highly detailed dress she opted for eclectic accessories. The one shoulder and structure of the dress make it a stand out. You can't beat Alaia shoes - favored by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen - and her criss-cross heels are slightly naughty, totally funky. The gold clutch is futuristic looking and her diamond studs are perfection. Pulling back her hair was a good call and bright pink lips are always scrumptious. Cute, cute and more c-ute.
