Fab Finding Follow Up: A Day to Night Look

FabSugar — Thu, 20 Sep 2007 16:30:33 -0700

You know when the day just kind of melts into the night? You're go go going; whether it's a long day of work and then happy hour drinks, or taking your kids to their after school activities and then attending a cocktail party. At some point you're supposed to make an outfit change, slipping into something more night-time appropriate, but when?! That's why we have layering pieces that easily transition, to switch up an outfit in no time flat.

I asked you to build an outfit that eases you into night from day and started you off with this Rachel Pally Long Cashmere Cardigan, $319, the perfect layering piece to cover up some skin...or not! To see all the Fab finds, go day to night.

Let's see what you all came up with!

Oh! Now, you can build outfits by creating a list of clothing items. We have everything you need to build outfits with and you can use your Fab Find bookmarks too. This is an even better way to put together an entire outfit when you are completing your Fab Finding missions.

Look #1, created by tigerlyllie21 is perfect for the girl on the go ! The trousers, pumps, and cardigan are perfect for work, and for night off comes the cardi to reveal a cute little cami.

Beauty Byte: Lisa Hoffman Night & Day Skincare Line

FabSugar — Wed, 11 Apr 2007 06:15:44 -0700

Dustin Hoffman's wife, Lisa, has stepped out of the shadows of her famous hubby and has created a quality skincare line, Night & Day, that promises to have easy-to-follow steps and portable packaging that can easily be stuffed into your designer handbag (or gym bag or briefcase or suitcase or glove compartment).

When it comes to skincare, Lisa is pretty demanding and when she grew tired of bulky bottles and searching for products from various lines, she was inspired to come up with products for women who want to simplify their skin care and beauty regimen.

The simplifying process is broken up into three sections: "24 Hour," "Night" and "Day." Opt for The Seven Day Kit from the 24 Hour line, Day Moisturizer from the Day line or the Night Cleanser from the Night section.

No matter what your skin needs, Lisa's products will make your life (ok, maybe not your whole life, but the beauty aspect of it) much more easy to deal with. Amen to that!

Simply Fab: Roxy Mysterious Scarf

FabSugar — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 09:00:22 -0700

I recently shared 15 feline prints you need now, but there's one more I must add to the list: Roxy's Mysterious Scarf ($28). What's so cool about it, besides the wild print, is the fact that it doubles as a shrug and a circle scarf. Throw it on as a scarf over a cardigan for day, then wear it as a cover-up over a sexy LBD at night.

Look Book Love: The Lake & Stars, Fall '09

FabSugar — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 06:50:22 -0700

Fall is all about bundling up, but after experiencing The Lake & Stars Fall look book, I would rather strip down. It's romantic and brooding, innocent and old-fashioned, rolled into one. I am especially smitten with the coquettish triangle bras, and though they don't provide much support, they're lovely for a night in. I wonder if I can wear one over a tee during the day. Sheer, lace, peach, satin . . . whoever wears plain underthings because no one sees them ought to reconsider. Shopbop currently has a few The Lake & Stars pieces on sale, so take a dip.

Fab Exclusive! Rachel Roy Dishes Inspiration and Favorite Pieces From Her Macy's Collection

FabSugar — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 05:50:22 -0700

Rachel Roy is officially our latest girl crush, thanks to an amazing Macy's Rachel Roy event we attended in San Francisco. Walking into Macy's contemporary department that night was like stepping into a cool lounge complete with a dope DJ - who played some of my favorite old-school jams - fabulously dressed people, delightful bubbly, and RR macaroons. And, of course, the breathtakingly beautiful Rachel Roy was present. We shopped 'til we dropped and managed to sneak in some one-on-one time with the charming designer. Did you know she's a Bay Area native? Born and raised in Monterey, baby. After talking about the Bay Area - more to come on that topic - we found out which pieces were her favorite from the collection and who inspired her.
Which pieces from the collection do you think are the most bang for your buck?

"That's a great question. Because I'm older, I tend to go for the classic looks - like the trench coat. You can take the belt off and wear it a million different ways. I like that you can also wear it like a trench dress."

A trench dress?

"Yes, like a painterly kind of trench coat. And I try to do pieces for young girls to wear, like to an interview, and also be able to wear to a party - a look that mixes both."

Day to night?

"Yes, depending on how I dress it up or down. And you know kids don't have a lot of money, so I want to give them that versatility. But I also want to keep them chic, modern, and respect them to not just throw junk out there. It's time consuming and there's a lot of work, but I'm really trying to my best to put together a collection that respects the consumer."

I love this red and black print.

"I love that. It reminded me of Yves Saint Laurent's hieroglyphics from back in the day. He got the inspiration from his home town [Algeria]. I could never do that in my designer line, and that's one of the big prints for me here. In my designer line, I have to find a print that's kind of 100 percent me."
