Life's a Beach: Slick and Slide

FabSugar — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 15:00:22 -0700

Slick and slide your way down the boardwalk in some metallic flats. It's the perfect beach accessory and will complement any beachy look. Let's examine Helena Christensen here; she's nowhere near water, but that doesn't stop her from spicing up her silky navy ensemble with a pair of sexy gold flats. Slick, indeed.

2010 Spring: Calvin Klein, CK Jeans, and CK Underwear

FabSugar — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 13:30:22 -0800

Clean. Precise. Minimal. Three terms Calvin Klein wants you to use when describing its Spring '10 collection. Staying true to the house's less-is-more aesthetic, Francisco Costa has delivered a line of basics with a sexy utilitarian nature. You'll find organic fabrics and most colors of the rainbow: sand, white, and khaki as staples, canary, melon, poppy, fuchsia, turquoise, and cobalt as accents. Drawstring cargos, denim vests, fitted blazers, parkas, denim judo pants, and shirt dresses are all solid. But one print piece stands out as the cool black sheep: a black-and-white, tie-dye dress that's feminine and bold.

Swimsuits are also part of the Spring family - a two-piece in warm gray and a one piece in solid gray or gray Bengal print. The handbags are equally minimal; hobos, totes, and rounded clutches are smooth and unstructured, with gold and silver hardware. Wooden-stacked heels and flat sandals are au naturel and sporty.

Online Sale Alert! Savvy Savings at Coclico

FabSugar — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 04:00:22 -0700

Shoe aficionados unite. Right now, Coclico is offering up to 30 percent off the likes of Tashkent, Chie Mihara, and Argila, to name a few.

I pounced when I saw these Coclico Fuchsia Flattery Thong Sandals ($175, originally $250) on sale. These flats would go perfect with just about anything and who am I to resist the recent bout of fuchsia fever?

Trend Alert: Denim Short Shorts

FabSugar — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 08:00:22 -0700

As the weather gets warmer, look to denim short shorts to cool off - and show off - those marvelous gams. Denim shorts have made yet another comeback this Spring with a variety of styles - not all reminiscent of Suzanne Somer's days in Three's Company. Dress them up with some fierce heels or downplay those sexy stems with a pair of flat sandals. Oh, and don't forget to strut like the D&G diva to my left.

The Look For Less: Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent Cree Fringe Flat Thong Sandal

FabSugar — Mon, 04 May 2009 01:00:22 -0700

If fringe had a season it would have to be Summer. I can't think of a better time for me to rock this trend with shorts, skirts, jeans, you name it. Take for instance this Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent Flat Fringe Sandal ($204). The short, sleek fringe is the ideal mix of hippie-chic and city glam but I'm not willing to pay that much for such a statement piece.

This Wanted Fringe Sandal ($39) is more up my alley. It's much cheaper and the style is dead-on. What more can you ask for?

Bottega Veneta Woven Flat Sandals: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Wed, 12 Dec 2007 09:00:22 -0800

I am a huge, and I do mean huge Bottega fan, but my die-hard devotion has been slightly stricken by these Bottega Veneta Woven Flat Sandals ($750). You gotta love the brand's trademark woven leather, but as for the rest of the shoe: do you dig it?

The Look For Less: Loeffler Randall Metallic Sandals

FabSugar — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 02:00:22 -0700

Loeffler Randall always produces well-made shoes, unique shoes. These Loeffler Randall Metallic Sandals ($385) are a prime example. Unfortunately, quality means an inflated price tag, so these T-strap sandals cost more than just a Spring fling. Thank goodness I found a similar pair for much, much less.

To see the look for less, read more.

These We Who See Petticoat Sandals ($58) may be a simplified version of the Loeffler Randalls, but they retain my three favorite elements: the T-strap shape, metallic sheen, and ruffle embellishment. Sold.
