Patricia Field Limited-Edition diet Coke City Collection Bottles: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Mon, 05 May 2008 07:00:08 -0700

Patricia Field's latest project has nothing to do with clothes. Instead, the stylist has lent her creativity to the limited-edition diet Coke City Collection bottles, sold exclusively at Selfridges. "The designs represent diet Coke as a sexy, sassy brand perfectly compatible with today's woman," Pat said. I'd love to get my hands on one. Would you?

7 For All Mankind One Shoulder Denim Mini Dress: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 05:00:22 -0800

Denim is a tricky fabric to work with, especially when it's used on dresses. This 7 For All Mankind One Shoulder Denim Mini Dress ($172) would be lovely in another fabric, but the denim makes it seem outdated and stiff. Nice try 7 For All Mankind, but I'll stick to just wearing your jeans. What are your thoughts?

Jade Jagger Satin Skull Beaded Bracelet: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 10:00:22 -0700

I swear Jade Jagger reads Fab. Shortly after I announced her a Fabcon, her new jewelry line popped up in ELLE and our favorite shopping websites. Obviously I dig her boho, rock n' roll vibe, but aren't we a little over skulls? Most of her jewelry line involves the motif that flourished last Spring, i.e. this Jade Jagger Satin Skull Beaded Bracelet ($255). I still like skulls, I would just rather be wearing stars around my wrist right now. Thoughts?

Trend Alert: Corkage

FabSugar — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 07:00:22 -0800

In the world of wine, corkage is something entirely different as in the wonderful world of fashion. In Fab land, corkage implies a light hearted '70s sex appeal, via shoes. Turned off already? Cork isn't for everyone, but if you have some Farrah Fawcett just waiting to break free, take one of these flirty pairs for a ride.

2010 Spring New York Fashion Week: Richard Chai Love

FabSugar — Sat, 12 Sep 2009 15:16:15 -0700

I was there - I promised I would be. Poppy Delevigne, Lauren Santo Domingo, Karolina Kurkova, Phillip Lim, and key fashion players, were there. How exciting was the news about Richard Chai's lower-priced contemporary line for guys and gals? Today, I witnessed the women's collection and was completely impressed. Then, I remembered the price point of $50 to $425, and got straight up giddy.

Inspired by boys, the collection still preserved Chai's cool femininity. What I loved most: the jackets. Hooded parkas, cropped parkas, boyfriend blazers, tailed waistcoats, boyfriend shirts worn as jackets, army jackets, and long cardigans put my jacket collection to shame. Crisp fabrics like cotton, twill, cotton/poly, wrinkled rayon, and leather were completely Spring-ified. A fresh indigo crystal petal print broke up the neutrals, and embroidered pieces provided the perfect glam finale.

Funny, I had the perfect seat right at the front of the runway so I could witness Chai adjusting models right before they walked, sipping Diet Coke amidst the excitement. Richard Chai - I love you, man.

Compare & Contrast: Heidi Klum, Oscar's Lady in Red

FabSugar — Mon, 23 Feb 2009 14:00:22 -0800

Last night, as I was covering the 2009 Oscars red carpet, I got déjà vu. Out walked Heidi Klum in her red Roland Mouret number - and blam - flashback to her Oscars look last year. Of course, the silhouette of the dress was entirely different, but it exuded the same futuristic aura and was the same fiery red color. And, her jewels were pink again! Let's dissect Heidi's 2008 and 2009 Oscars looks shall we?

Dress: John Galliano made sure Heidi stood out on the '08 Oscars red carpet in this red, larger-than-life Dior gown. There is nothing shy about it - it's as red as red gets, has a huge collar, long side trains, and futuristic vibe. Oh, and Heidi chose red to benefit women's heart health.

Jewelry: It's apparent the Super loves the combination of red and pink. In 2008, her pink jewels from her own line complemented her red gown to a tee. She donned dramatic red and pink drop earrings, matching bracelets, and a red and pink ring.

Dress: Heidi went down the same red path this year by wearing a red dress in honor of her Diet Coke Heart Healthy campaign. Roland Mouret created this frock, which is not as voluminous, but just as in-your-face and futuristic. It also has a heavy sheen. Once again, the collar is the focus, but the skirt is equally attention-grabbing.

Jewelry: Red and pink it is again. Heidi chose to further sass up her red dress with light pink accessories. Like last year, the earrings were the focus, but stacked bangles and rings were also lavishly loud.

Oscars Red Carpet: Heidi Klum

FabSugar — Sun, 22 Feb 2009 16:39:01 -0800

In honor of the Diet Coke Heart Healthy campaign, Heidi Klum wore a vivacious red dress by Roland Mouret and matching peep-toe pumps. The perfectly placed slices and asymmetrical neckline add a nice modern touch to her look. For jewels, the Super donned an amazing pair of silver and coral floral earrings with stacked bangles. Are you loving her look?
