Celebrity Style: Emma Stone

FabSugar — Thu, 21 Aug 2008 04:30:22 -0700

Whoever Emma Stone's stylist is, she's doing a stellar job making her client look sophisticated and cool at the same time. Keep it coming! For her latest appearance on MTV's TRL, the newcomer continued to look ever the budding fashionista in a purple Abaete one-shoulder top, a bubble-hemmed Yigal Azrouel skirt, and Jimmy Choo peep toe booties. Paper thin gold hoop earrings and bangles finished the look without distracting from the assertive outfit.

Abaete Whitney Asymmetrical Top - $225.00	MK2K Ruched Skirt with Pockets - $180.00
Jimmy Choo Glint suede boots - $995.00	Small gold hoops - $68.00

Trend Alert: Bubble Trouble

FabSugar — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 07:00:22 -0700

Just when I thought someone magically popped the fashion bubble, we are back in bubble trouble. Designers and celebrities alike can't get enough of bubble hems. To be truthful, this is a look only a slim gal should attempt and heels lessen any negative bubbling of the body. Emma Roberts wore a dark and tailored Sass & Bide bubble dress, The Hills' Lo donned a colorful Ina Soltani bub, and Elizabeth Bank's Moschino bubbler was gray and subdued. I prefer the bubbles that have a tailored approach, at least it's a reinvention of the trend. Does anyone else wish this '80s trend would bubble over already?

Who Wore It Better? Pink Polka Dot Alice + Olivia Dress

FabSugar — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 07:00:22 -0700

It's teen week here at Fab, so get ready for bubblegum curls and polka dot Alice + Olivia dresses. This little number was worn by teeny boppers Miley Cyrus, at MTV's TRL, and Monique Coleman, at the Teen Choice Awards preparty. Funny how both girls wore fuchsia shoes with the bubble hem dress. My vote goes to Monique because she shows off the delicate neckline better; Miley's hair is distracting. Who looks cutest to you?

Celebrity Style: Emma Stone

Wasn't I just talking about what a doll emerging star Emma Stone is? She looked spot on at the Pineapple Express premiere. She is young, fun, and feels comfortable in her skin; her outfit said just that. The mixing of black and blue creates a cool moody effect. Her black wraparound belt and the subtle bubble hem contrast each other and her peep-toe booties were fresh. This leaves me wanting to see more from the fresh-faced star.

Fab Finger Discount: BCBG Max Azria Spring Bubble Skirt

FabSugar — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 10:00:22 -0700

I'm not normally a fan of bubble hems, but in fashion, there are always exceptions. This BCBG Max Azria Spring Bubble Skirt ($48, originally $128) is one of them. It's superior to all the other bubble skirts because the draping makes it less cheesy, more chic. Plus, the white color is fresh for now through Summer. Pairing it with a simple tank or tee would do; the skirt is charming and should be center of attention.

Fendi Honeycomb Knit Skirt: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Sat, 27 Sep 2008 02:22:22 -0700

I have a sweet tooth, so naturally, I was drawn to this Fendi Honeycomb Knit Skirt ($1,250). The geometric cut-outs are interesting and artistic. It also looks super cozy, but I can see myself majorly snagging this baby on my first wear. The banded, bubble-like hem is also a concern.

FabSugar — Thu, 29 May 2008 09:00:22 -0700

This electric orange Elizabeth and James Parachute Dress ($375) is bright and perfect for a lazy stroll on the beach. However, I'm not too sure about the puffiness and bubble hem. Do you think this dress is hot, or not?

Trend Alert: Puff Party

FabSugar — Mon, 05 May 2008 02:00:08 -0700

Join the puff party! Not to be confused with the '80s bubble hem, the puff is all about creating contrasting volume. This is an ideal party look. To avoid looking like a puff pastry, make sure the puff starts high on the hip and the top is fitted and structured. See Miu Miu's delectable short and puffy concoction (left) - love!
