FabSugar — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 05:00:22 -0800

It gets cold in New York. That's for sure, and that's why sandra werner is all bundled up. Never one to let the weather get in the way of dressing nice, she opts for a functional and funky outfit. Her taupe jacket looks warm and cozy. Notice how she's on to the burgundy bag trend.

Here's what she has on:

Jacket: Unknown
Jeans: Anlo
Boots: Jimmy Choo
Bag: Gerard Darel

Congrats to sandra werner!

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

The Bag To Have: Gerard Darel Midday Midnight Bag

FabSugar — Mon, 10 Mar 2008 15:00:22 -0700

Gerard Darel handbags first took off when Eva Longoria and Jessica Alba were seen carrying their fringe style. Now the fringe has been shed and a sleeker purse has emerged: The Gerard Darel Midday Midnight Bag ($875), which Halle Berry, Lindsay Lohan, and Jessica Alba already own. It comes in green, blue, purple, and orange calf skin. If you want to be in with Hollywood right now, this is the bag to have.

Celebrity Style: Jessica Alba

Mama-to-be Jessica Alba kept it casual while baby shopping in LA. Although I'm not a fan of matching your handbag to shoes, the shades of purple are slightly different so it works. Her AKA New York cardigan, Tolani scarf, and purple Chucks create a cool, feminine look. Now only if she would smile a little . . .

AKA New York Flutter Sleeve Cashmere Cardigan ($90, originally $298)	Tolani Zig Zag Scarf ($85)
Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Lo Top Core ($23)	Lux Straight Leg Jean ($68)
Urban Outfitters Sabina Leather Convertible Bag ($245)	ASOS Linked Shell Drop Earring ($23)	RAY-BAN Wayfarer Sunglasses ($139)

Found! Eva & Jessica's Fringe Leather Handbag

FabSugar — Fri, 25 May 2007 13:11:22 -0700

You asked...we found! This Gerard Darel Fringe Bag, $895, has been the recent favorite of not only Eva Longoria but Jessica Alba likes the white version. Though this bag does not come cheap, I actually like it better than the Prada bag that started it all. It's a nice mix of buttery leather and boho fringe. Enjoy!

Fab Ad: Balenciaga Fall '08

FabSugar — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 02:00:08 -0700

I've always thought of actress and daughter of Jane Birkin Charlotte Gainsbourg as a cool girl, but not as a model. Still, the best friend of Balenciaga designer Nicolas Ghesquiere has been chosen as the newest face of the house's Fall '08 advertisements. This is not the first time Charlotte has taken a stab at modeling, though; she was once the face of French handbag line Gerard Darel. She may not look like most models out there, but her svelte body is perfect for Balenciaga's latest crop of dresses and slick suits. And her robotic posing goes hand-in-hand with the paired-down but bold collection. What is your take on Balenciaga's Fall '08 ads?

Found! Eva Longoria's Strapless Smock Dress

FabSugar — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 05:23:22 -0700

It looks like Eva Longoria loves Shopbop as much as we do. The actress wore a Bop Basics Strapless Smock Mini Dress in Lilac ($108) while recently shopping in LA. It comes in five colors but the lilac hue complements Eva's honey skin quite nicely. And it's the perfect dress to cover up a bun in the oven, if the rumors are true. Mrs. Tony Parker completed the look with her favorite Gerard Darel purse and black flip-flops.

Who Wore It Better? Juicy Couture Swiss Tunic Dress

FabSugar — Thu, 20 Sep 2007 17:00:22 -0700

Juicy Couture's dresses are all the craze these days. Rachel Bilson walked her puppy in the black Juicy Couture Swiss Tunic Dress, $188, yesterday. Eva Longoria double fisted green teas in the white version and a Gerard Darel fringe bag today. Rachel gives the dress a grungy vibe with her ankle boots and green bag, while Eva looks more sweet and sophisticated. Who do you think wore it better?

How Would YOU Wear It? Eva Longoria

FabSugar — Wed, 16 May 2007 04:02:22 -0700

Like Fergie, Eva is another dame who doesn't seem to grasp the concept of "less is more."

Here, the petite actress is overly matchy matchy and it's giving me a slight headache to look at this ensemble. Allow me to list all the accessories she's sporting: Gerard Darel fringe bag, five bangles, earrings, hat, studded boots, necklace. I think what really sends it over the top is the fact that it's all made up of the same neutral tones. It screams "I tried too hard."

I would have first gotten rid of the hat, earrings and boots. I would have kept the first 3 bangles and the bag, but would have worn a pair of simple flats and a different color top so that it didn't mesh with the bag. How would YOU wear it?
