There have been times where I go crazy looking for a shoe, bag, or dress I've seen on a celebrity or just on a stylish gal strolling down the street. I search, search, and search with all my might, but still can't seem to locate that special piece. If you've suffered the same experience, join our In Search Of . . . FabSugar Community Group. We'll help you find that must-have item as if our fashion cred depended on it.

Tvprofessor fell in lust with Kate Moss's lace dress and needs our help finding a similar one. She found this comparable frock at Forever 21, but it sold out before she could purchase - let's try to help her! Mom always told me three brains are better than one. There are already a bunch of groups you can join and explore, and please - start some new ones! Here's GeekSugar's helpful guide to creating in case you need some clarification.

BCBG Max Azria Lace Overlay Ponte Knit Dress: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Thu, 02 Aug 2007 15:00:22 -0700

I'm with MissLee82 on this one. I'm not sure whether or not I like this BCBG Max Azria Lace Overlay Ponte Knit Dress, on sale for $189 (originally $280). I usually like romantic dresses, but this leans towards matronly, even a little nun-like. What do you all think?

Celeb Style: Eva Herzigova

FabSugar — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 12:00:22 -0800

As we approach the holidays, I'm on the lookout for original party looks. Eva's wink may not be up to par, but the slick tuxedo-inspired look she wore to the 2010 Pirelli Calendar cocktail reception in London was beyond Fab. She dressed up her slight harem pants with delicate sandals, a draped white top, and a velvet blazer. Feminine details like a black lace peekaboo bra and radiant art deco earrings are suave touches. A jolt of red satin via her clutch is holiday-tastic.

Drape Front Top - $68.00	Bandeau Lace Bra - $7.00
NEW! Velvet one-button tuxedo jacket - $168.00	Zero + Maria Cornejo Gabi Pants - $250.00
Rouched Satin Fold-Over Clutch - $29.50	rsvp - Casey (Black Satin) - $84.00
Slivertone Link Bracelet Watch - $95.00	Nightcap art deco earring - $42.00

Trend Alert: Satin Party Platforms

FabSugar — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 16:00:22 -0800

It's almost party time people. Catch up on your sleep and get your party wardrobe in order now to avoid holiday burnout. While you could go the princess route, like Kristen Stewart did at the New Moon LA premiere, on the other side of the red carpet, was Dakota Fanning in a flirtatious lace Valentino frock and satin party platforms. I have a black lace-up Banana Republic pair I'm looking forward to dusting off, though fanciful colors like blood red, fuchsia, and navy have their own appeal.

Designer Spotlight: Caroline Hedeya

FabSugar — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 09:00:22 -0800

This is a story about two girls, Caroline and Donna, who were destined to become stylish bosom buddies. Before they met at F.I.T., the two led parallel lives hoping to become fashion designers one day. Shortly after graduating, Caroline and Donna combined their quirky ideas to create Caroline Hedaya, a genesis of Caroline's graceful touches with Donna's architectural aesthetic. For Spring '10, the duo supply us with a girlie gambit of crisp skirts, cropped lace tops, modern vintage frocks, and polka-dot prints made in cream and navy hues. I don't know which I love more: the simple cinched camisole dress or the white cut-out wonder . . .

Here's a fun fact: At the age of 4, Caroline used to get phone calls from her teacher telling her mom that her outfits were too extravagant for school. Luckily, her mother refused to pacify her daughter's eccentric ways - too cute!

Trend Alert: Winter Retreat

FabSugar — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 15:30:22 -0800

It's bound to happen. Everyone starts to hibernate as the days get shorter and the temp gets colder. However, that's no excuse to dress drab. I suggest making your Winter retreat a fashionable one via buffalo plaid, sherpa-lined denim, laced boots, and boyfriend jeans. Think Paul Bunyan, or rather, Paulina Bunyan, when styling your warm warfare. Now, all I need is a cabin, fireplace, hot cocoa, and a snuggly stud muffin.

Sneak Peek! Anthropologie, Fall '09

FabSugar — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 07:50:22 -0800

Anthropologie's November catalog is a surefire way to get in the holiday spirit. British model Jacquetta Wheeler - dressed in everything from pretty lace to cozy sweaters - is seen frolicking in (faux) snow. It's all so romantic. I can't help but be consumed by the impressive styling, and I'm sure CasaSugar is mesmerized by the rustic scene. Granted, not everyone wears shorts in the snow, but I adore Jacquetta's outfit here; a little checkers, a little wool, equals a lot of charm. Experience it for yourself.

Move over Nicole Richie, there's a new hot pregnant mama in town. Here at the "Late Show With David Letterman," Halle Berry looks more gorgeous than ever in her Galliano bubble lace dress, slingback sandals and hoop earrings.

I don't foresee myself walking down the aisle anytime soon, but that won't stop me from peeping at the latest bridal fashions from Jenny Packham, Vera Wang, Reem Acra, Monique Lhuillier, and Temperley London.
