Mitzy is going to incorporate shorts into her Winter chic outfit, even if it's cold outside dammit! I love her bold attitude, not to mention the red beret, and her sweet pink blazer.

She didn't provide details on her outfit, so come back and let us know.

Congrats to Mitzy!

eBay Find of the Week

FabSugar — Sat, 08 Dec 2007 01:11:22 -0800

There are a few accessories that when thrown on, will transform your look in an instant - the beret is one of them. Many women fear they won't be able to pull the French-style hat off, or they don't know how to style it. I'm here to profess my love for the beret and to convince you to get your head under one.

This Purple Wool Beret is not only perfect for bad hair days, it's also ideal for when your outfit alone isn't cutting it. Throw on your fabulous beret, and voilà , you'll be a pseudo Parisian in no time.

The current bidding price is at $6.99 and the auction ends on Friday, December 14. Good luck and happy bidding!

Trend Alert: Beret Love

FabSugar — Mon, 29 Oct 2007 08:00:22 -0700

How many berets do I have? Five. You already know I am obsessed with hats and I think the beret is the most wearable of all. From classic black to sequins to knit to topped with a pom pom, the beret love is in full force for Fall. What's great is the beret spans decades; wear with wide-legged jeans for a sassy '70s look, top off a sexy pencil skirt with one for a demure '50s vibe, or, wear one with an origami-fold dress for a modern look. See, there's nothing but beret love in the wonderful world of fashion.

Maraschino Beret - $38.00	Lola Wool Felt Beret - $75.00
Ville Pom Beret - $28.00	Felt Beret - $595.00

Back to Cool: Goodie Two Shoes

FabSugar — Tue, 14 Aug 2007 15:00:22 -0700

Whether you love her, hate her, love to hate her, or are her, every school has a goodie two shoes, or in this case goodie two Louis Vuitton booties. She may be a brownosing do-gooder but at least she's got style to back it up - she obviously took great notes on the ladylike Louis Vuitton collection. From the Vermeer-inspired berets to the sheen in the circle and pencil skirts to the rich color palette, it's hard to hate this girl. Consider her a frenemie? Truce.

Look of the Day: Beret Chic

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 05:00:22 -0800

Berets always manage to inject refinement into an outfit. Case in point: moni2182 looked beret chic while going to brunch with friends. Her hat softened up her tough leather jacket, while the mustard turtleneck dress added color. Perfection.

Here's what she has on:

Jacket: Mike & Chris
Shoes: Steve Madden
Bag: Botkier

Congrats to moni2182!

Isn't mimi10112 just beret beautiful? But the beret isn't the only thing I'm loving on her. The white blouse with floral details is sweet, especially over those wide leg jeans. And how can I neglect the lovely green Prada purse? I can't!

Here's what she's wearing:

Top: Mika
Jeans: Levi's
Shoes: Jessica Simpson
Bag: Prada

Congrats to mimi10112!
