Trend Alert: Little Boxy Jackets

FabSugar — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 15:00:22 -0800

Nothing goes unnoticed on Victoria Beckham. Not only did she sport some sharp trousers, and an incognito cloche hat at the Heathrow Airport, she threw on a little boxy jacket. A little boxy Chanel jacket. You have to love this woman's luxe travel wardrobe. Chanel tweed is ideal, but you can make an equal statement in fur - embellished, plaid, or striped. You know how to wear it: boxy on top, slim, on bottom. Sweet travels . . .

Trend Alert: Gray Suede Shoes

FabSugar — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 07:50:22 -0700

No regrets. When I purchased a pair of Derek Lam gray suede sandals on sale at Shopbop last Summer, not only did I pat myself on the back for finding such a great deal, but I wore them with vigor. They magically matched every outfit, and were more interesting than black shoes. They felt very . . . modern.

And that's exactly how Dasha Zhukova looks. Her printed ivory and black dress is thoroughly baby-bump friendly, a little black jacket is smart, and what appears to be a Chanel bag is perfection. But it's her crisscross gray suede platform pumps that remind us she's a fashion editor. They give her a slight edge and added texture.

If you're seeking one worthy shoe investment for Fall, consider a pair of gray suede shoes.

Trend Alert: Tasty Tulips

FabSugar — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 06:50:22 -0700

To be fair, everything Diane wears is tasty. But rarely do we see her so vibrant in mismatching colors and wearing blingy accessories. Rejoice! Here she is between shopping visits in Berlin in a tasty tulip Stella McCartney print skirt (with obi belt), yellow tee, cascading necklace, and Chanel bag. Metallic sandals appear to be both comfortable and functional. The latest crop of tulip skirts are unique and heavily draped, inspiring experimentation. Screw playing it safe, Diane never does.

Trend Alert: Perforation

FabSugar — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 09:00:22 -0800

The act of perforation consists of "a hole or series of holes punched or bored through something, especially a hole in a series, separating sections in a sheet or roll." The look of perforation is dope. Something so complicated produces an uncomplicated look, a look of sportif. This treatment is popping through shoes, bags, and belts. It's an ideal transitional look that's not quite warm weather nor cold.

Trend Alert: Lovin' Lurex

FabSugar — Mon, 19 Jan 2009 09:00:22 -0800

Now that we've defined it, we can eat it up. I didn't realize until Marc Jacobs' Spring collection that I've always been lovin' Lurex. A sucker for anything sparkly, Lurex adds a smidgen of Studio 54 to any item. Many of us won't be able to afford MJ come Spring, so scour your local vintage shop for Lurex infested items. Either way, hop on this trend before it's hot.

Celebrity Style: Claudia Schiffer

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 04:00:22 -0800

On the heels of her Spring Yves Saint Laurent ad release, Claudia struts her supermodel stuff in a perfectly layered ensemble. Her street style is absolutely admirable. While not everyone can pull off cropped pants and ankle boots - I only recommend that if you're tall and/or lanky - there are other creative things going on here. Her palette is totally Fall, her fur jacket is plush, and her bowed scarf adds a touch of aristocratic flair. You're not Super without big sunnies and a designer bag - local Brit Anya Hindmarch in this case. Keep on strutting, Claudia.

Celebrity Style: Charlize Theron

FabSugar — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 07:00:22 -0700

I couldn't keep my eyes off of Charlize Theron's outfit when I saw her at the 2008 Democratic National Convention. She looks healthy, happy, and mega stylish. Her print dress is a stand alone, if you ask me. Also, a black blazer does its job of adding that touch of menswear, and the gold accessories lend a punch of luxury. Charlize may be in Denver on business, but she looks all pleasure.

I've been looking for good examples of transitional outfits, and leave it to Charlize to give us one. If you still want to show off your tan gams come Fall, layers are the answer. This look manages to be both cozy and collected. Sometimes the idea of throwing things on and cinching it all together with smart accessories just works. Charlize's choice of earthy hues does no wrong, either.
