Fab Finding Follow Up: Winter Weekend Escape

FabSugar — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 16:00:22 PST

In the midst of all of the end-of-year madness, sometimes it's nice to take a breather. Let's face it: Holidays may mean you take off time from work, but they're no vacation.

To get some true you time, you're taking a weekend escape to a friend's cabin up in Lake Tahoe. I started you off with this Floral Crochet Hat ($28) because it's a cute topper and will keep your head cozy. Be sure to check out all the Winter escape Fab Finds.

Let's see what you all came up with!

Oh! Now, you can build outfits by creating a list of clothing items. We have everything you need to build outfits with, and you can use your Fab Find bookmarks, too. This is an even better way to put together an entire outfit when you are completing your Fab Finding missions.

Look #1, created by fashionhore, is very Winter chic; I love the draped neckline of the coat and the unexpected pumpkin-colored gloves.

Sneak Peek! Madewell's Girl Goes Woodsy and Tomboy-Cool For Fall

Hannah Weil — Wed, 16 May 2012 14:15:01 PDT

We got our first taste of Madewell's Fall 2012 back in April, but if ever there was a way to prove the cool factor in this collection, it's in Madewell's perfectly styled Fall lookbook. Mastering the art of effortless layers, girl-meets-boy appeal, and the style quirks of traditional Fall clothing turned on its head, Madewell offers up the season's essentials in bold hues, clever prints (like a leopard-print grandpa cardigan), and staple denim. It's the best kind of tomboy dressing - pastel tulip skirts paired with plaid button-downs and field boots - and a woodsier edge, thanks to cozy knit hats, lumberjack-inspired jackets, and cheeky wool sweaters. Read on for our must-have pieces, then click through to get a glimpse of the whole collection.

This varsity jacket has just the right sporty vibe to toughen up all of our Fall dresses.
This adorable sheep-printed sweater tops our list with its quirky style sense and slightly vintage feel.
We love the slightly '70s feel of this look, and we're adding the felted fedora to our wish list.

15 Cool-Girl Hats Worthy of Your Spring-to-Summer Wardrobe

Marisa Tom — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 06:47:56 PDT

Aside from the perfect pair of sunglasses, there's only one (two, if you count sunscreen) more thing you need to take care of, as far as sun-worshipping accents go: finding your quintessential warm weather hat, of course. No, not a baseball cap and not your go-to pointelle knit beanie - we're talking about the floppiest, most wide-brimmed, and chicest straw, raffia, and woven versions, fit for a Summer crown. From more dramatic iterations that instantly transport us to the Kentucky Derby to edgier Western-inspired cowboy hats, we've picked out our favorite 15, worthy of a spin under the sun. Just keep clicking to find your match.

Look of the Day: Festival Ready

FabSugar — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 03:00:18 PDT

Fab reader In Foodie Fashion Ana styled out a hippie-chic look that proves Coachella-worthy and Summer fest-ready. She wore a long black maxi dress and cinched it at the waist with a woven brown belt. To accent the ensemble, she chose a cool fringed necklace, a saffron-hued duster cardigan, a black floppy hat, and chilled-out flat sandals. While it may be hot during the day, we think the knit topper was a great choice for the chillier evening concerts.

Congrats In Foodie Fashion Ana!

Rachel Zoe Spends the Day With Skyler Following a Stylish Soirée

Brittney Stephens — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 02:32:26 PDT

Rachel Zoe took her son, Skyler Berman, to lunch in LA yesterday. The stylist and designer sported wide-leg jeans and a leather jacket while Skyler was layered up in a knit hat and tiny moccasins. The 1-year-old took turns being held by Rachel and her pal Joey Maalouf during the day, which came after a fun evening. Rachel hit the red carpet on Tuesday night to celebrate Valentino's 50th anniversary at the designer's flagship store in Beverly Hills. She parted with Molly Sims and Kim Kardashian, and "talked fashion" with The Hunger Games' Isabelle Fuhrman. The bash was just the latest for Rachel, who also celebrated Skyler's first birthday over the weekend.

Look of the Day: Low-Key Cool

FabSugar — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 03:00:22 PST

Now that the hustle and bustle of New York Fashion Week has come to a close, we're ready to give our heels a break. To help us keep our laid-back wardrobe up to snuff, Fab reader Brunetteblogging pieced together a super chic yet low-key outfit that shows off a perfect style mix of casual and cool. She paired a cream sequined top with a button-down denim shirt, black miniskirt, and black tights. Her knee-high black boots, saddlebag, and gray knit beanie tie the look together with a no-frills polish. It's an everyday look with sleek accents - we love it.

Congrats Brunetteblogging!

10 Pieces That Will Take You From Winter to Spring

Lucky — Tue, 13 Mar 2012 09:55:11 PDT

Lucky magazine is one of our favorite sources for great shopping tips. We're thrilled to share this fabulous story on the best transitional pieces from our friends at Lucky!

Daylight Savings Time just happened and, also like clockwork, I'm suddenly repulsed by boots, sweaters and knit hats. Instead, I want leather sandals, tiny shorts, crepe-thin dresses or anything that whispers "wear me on spring break".

Of course, this is partially (largely?) because I want it to be warm enough to wear those things. It's stupid to hope that buying summer clothes will spark the weather to match my new wardrobe, but I do it anyway. But since it doesn't really work like that, maybe I should invest in some more transitional pieces instead.

Butterscotch Blankees Personalized Baby Items: Kid-Friendly or Are You Kidding?

Kate Stahl — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 12:34:14 PST

There's no doubt that I love a monogram. But personalized gifts for babes can often look - how shall I say? - less than luxe. That's why I'm flipping for Butterscotch Blankees, a line favored by celebs including Sarah Jessica Parker and Kourtney Kardashian. The company was started by Jodie Roth, a mom who came up empty while looking for cute, but sophisticated accent pieces for her son's nursery. She made him a personalized blanket, and the line was born right along with her first baby. While the pillows, blankets, hats, and scarves are too cute, we're really flipping for the new-for-Spring knit sweaters and dresses. A perfect shower or new baby gift, the creations can be personalized with initials, names, monograms, or birth dates. Even cuter, each package arrives wrapped like butterscotch candy, making a great gift to send to a faraway friend.

So I'm obviously loving the line, but what do you think? Is Butterscotch Blankees too luxe for a lil one? Or just right? Weigh in below!
