Dutch Designer Fab's Trendy Laptop Bags

GeekSugar — Sun, 02 Dec 2007 10:15:21 PST

When I spotted this exquisite laptop bag on Trendhunter, I thought wow, finally a bag that's unique, chic and sure enough-straight from Europe! Dutch designer Fab has created these fashionable handmade leather laptop bags which come in a variety of styles and colors. They've also got adorable wallets, purses and belts to match the bags. Unfortunately, the entire website is in Dutch, and the designs are made in Amsterdam, so there's little chance I'll be getting one anytime soon. Although I can tell you this, they cost $292 each which is quite expensive, but considering how fabulous they are, I just can't be a hater!

Stylish Oven Mitts

YumSugar — Fri, 19 Jan 2007 15:59:01 PST

Everyone loves a great apron, but have you ever thought about your oven mitt? An oven mitt is a fantastic way to spruce up your kitchen with a little bit of whimsy and a lot of flair.

I came across these three beautiful oven mitts at the Curiosity Shoppe. They're $25 a piece, and were created by the folks at Deadly Squire (although how anything so cute could come from something called "deadly" is beyond me). They've also got matching pot holders for $20.

If branches and birds aren't your style, check out these hot dot oven mitts and pot holders at Chiasso. They range from $12-$18.

Two more after the jump, so

This one, by goods of desire, offers a little bit of a worldly touch. For $24, the black and white chinese newsprint oven mitt could become a great conversation starter in your kitchen.
And finally, I found this eye-catching modern circle oven mitt from Echo. You can take it home for a mere $6. At that price, go ahead and get two.

Look of the Day: Monochromatic Glam

FabSugar — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 03:00:15 PST

While it's quite a tricky trend, we think Fab reader Sorelle in Style rocked a fierce gorilla-sleeve look flawlessly. She paired the plush jacket with neutral layers, which in turn, created a super chic downtown-cool effect. Underneath she sported a half-tucked white blouse with high-waisted black jeans. Her pair of low-top Converse and Alexander Wang studded saddlebag kept the ensemble low-key and luxe. It's a classic look with edgy accents - a stylish balance we love seeing.

Congrats Sorelle in Style!

Everyone else, submit your looks, and we might just feature you on FabSugar!
