Trend Alert: Caped Crusaders

FabSugar — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 04:00:22 -0700

I have one friend who always loved capes. She sported an awesome black vintage one in the dead of winter before they were even trendy - though they are sort of classic - and she looked immaculate. She would wear it with black skinnies and vintage shoes, to give the cape some street cred. So, for those not ready to be a caped crusader you can do as my friend did or go minimal like at Jil Sander. Or, you can make up a mysterious look all your own - always encouraged.

As much as handbags prefer to be feminine, people still need function. Lucky for us people, handbags are providing all sorts of handle options. A shoulder strap bag is perfect for work, travel or those who simply like to have variety in a bag. You could even see one of these lovelies as getting more bang for our buck. Always one to help you rationalize a purchase, feast your eyes on these.

Macy's Passport 2007: Dita von Teese, Runway Show and More!

You may be asking yourself, "Why, I wonder what Fab did last Thursday night?" So glad you asked...I went to the Macy's Passport 2007 extravaganza, which has not only provided men's, women's and children's fashion for 25 years, but also a strong dedication to the HIV/AIDS community. The event has raised an astounding $25 million toward saving lives so far.

The who's who of San Francisco was present, all clad in tuxedos and floor-length gowns. One of the highlights was seeing the ever gorgeous and Marchesa-clad Dita von Teese, who performed a sexy number at the finale of the show. "The Daily 10's Debbie Matenopoulos was also present, in a sexy LBD, and chatted away with Dita as if they were bosom buddies.

The night also included a runway production with collections from Calvin Klein, Via Spiga, Kenneth Cole, Marc Ecko and more. If you missed it, starting October 3, you can purchase the clothes via an eBay auction.
