Sneak Peek! New J.Crew Shoes and Accessories Collection

FabSugar — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 06:00:22 -0700

I'm convinced nothing can take you from Winter to Spring as smoothly as J.Crew's new shoes and accessories collection.

You want bright? You'll get bright alright. Every hue under the rainbow is included in this latest crop. Metallic belts, bubble gum jewels, and Crayola hued flats are some of the offerings. Personally, I want this Bubble Necklace ($150, left), along with this Las Palmas Bag ($295). Take a peek and decide how you'll make your Spring brighter.

New York Fashion Week, Spring 2008: Catherine Malandrino

FabSugar — Sun, 09 Sep 2007 12:00:22 -0700

Designer du jour, Catherine Malandrino, showed a bold Spring collection - sometimes, a little too bold. While her feminine and chic designs have recently been celeb favorites I'm not sure we'll be seeing some these newbies grace the red carpet. Malandrino attacked the art trend with fervor and sometimes it hit and sometimes it missed.

Aside from the venue, the Chelsea Art Museum, being over crowded, bold colors and prints dominated the runway. Catherine's strengths - ultra femme dresses, chic tailoring and elegant draping - persevered but her artsy prints and stiff cocktail dresses were questionable. In short, I had a love/hate experience at Malandrino. What do you think?!

New York Fashion Week, Spring 2008: Tracy Reese

FabSugar — Sat, 08 Sep 2007 06:00:33 -0700

There was plenty of sunshine to go around at Tracy Reese, who celebrated her label's 10th anniversary by sending her idea of the easy, breezy, beautiful girl down the runway. The models had big smiles across their faces as they strutted, a rarity on the catwalk, but a detail that was quite refreshing.

The clothes were showered with red, fuchsia, purple, teal and blue; bright colors which kept in tune with the carefree mood of the collection. Models twirled parasols that matched their geometrically printed dresses and monochrome swimsuits. Scallops played a prominent role, featured on embroidered ruffles, hems, and necklines. Matte sequins shimmered on loose-fitting jackets, strappy little dresses, and fitted cardi's. And it looks as though the craze for dresses and high-waisted pants won't subside soon: with this runway full of both, Tracy made me want more more more!

Banish cold weather blahs forever with the upcoming bold & bright Fall offerings. Seriously, if I had these rich and electric colors in my wardrobe come January I think the snow would instantly melt wherever I went - take this fabulous Versace fruit punch coat, for example. Say hello to scarlet, vermilion, fuchsia, peacock, eggplant and grape - your new BFFs. Paired with noir and greys, get ready to shock the system.
