Lake Bell in Colorblock Lyn Devon Maxi: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 01:00:22 -0700

I like maxi dresses, I dig colorblock, but for some reason I can't stomach the two together. Lake Bell wore a colorblock maxi Lyn Devon dress to a party for the designer in LA that has me flummoxed. The colors in her ensemble are punchy and the belt helps define her waist, but do you approve of the final product?

Handbag Designer Spotlight: Bird

FabSugar — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 17:00:22 -0700

If the name Liz Carey sounds familiar to you, it's probably because you've seen the model/actress walking the runways of Alexander McQueen or Versace. Or maybe you caught a glimpse of her in the movies Spanglish or The 40-Year-Old Virgin. Now fast-forward. Liz has taken a new role - handbag designer - and it looks like she's found her niche.

Her handbag collection, dubbed Bird, is all about the exotic. Taking pieces from her worldly travels, the budding designer has created a line filled with personality and culture. From ostrich to snakeskin to Guatemalan wedding shirts, Liz's rich-hippie aesthetic had me - and Lake Bell, and Rachel Bilson - at hello. Oh yeah, and if you're wondering why Liz named her collection Bird, it's because the word also means "girl" in British slang.

Celebrity Style: Lake Bell

FabSugar — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 12:00:22 -0700

Lake Bell was red hot last night at the premiere of In Search of a Midnight Kiss in LA. Red can be overtly sexy, but I like how Lake kept her look tasteful in a slim skirt and silk blouse. Her monochrome, with a punch of blue, silhouette was topped off with stellar suede accessories. Now that's what I call red hot.

Trend Alert: Where the Wild Bags Are

FabSugar — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 06:00:22 -0700

It's August. Shed your style and go wild. It's time to wear all your flesh flattering clothes - it's now or never! Sorry for the dramatics, but these handbags have me where the wild bags are. From flea market finds to lazy totes to full on luxotica, wearing an ethnic-inspired handbag feels, and looks, so right. Right? Camila Alves knows how to work the wild bag here at her Muxo handbags debut, while Lake and Rachel look like they picked theirs up along some surfin' safari. Where will you wear your wild bag?

Behind the Seams: Ports 1961 and Elle "Shop Your Closet" Launch Party

FabSugar — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 15:00:22 -0700

You may be curious to know what Nicky Hilton wore to the Ports 1961 and Elle Shop Your Closet book launch party. I know I was. A $1,795 Ports 1961 layered lace dress that by the end of the night morphed into a one-shoulder frock. Lake Bell was also in attendance at the Ports boutique in LA, as was actress Leven Rambin. The night consisted of shopping (duh), sipping on white wine, and reading up on Shop Your Closet: The Ultimate Guide to Organizing Your Closet With Style by Melanie Charlton Fascitelli ($14). I won't give away much else. Step inside for the fun.

Who Wore It Better? Marchesa Red Rosette Dress

FabSugar — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 12:00:22 -0700

This one's a toughie considering both Lake Bell and Marchesa designer Georgina Chapman wore Marchesa's red rosette dress the same exact way. Their red satin shoes and pulled-back hair are the same, but Lake opted for a red snakesin clutch at the What Happens in Vegas UK premiere, while Georgina went with a glittery silver one at the 2008 CFDA Awards. Although Georgina designed the dress, I think Lake has more natural ability to pull off such a funky shoulder detail. Which lady in red do you think wore it better?

I Want This Wardrobe: What Happens in Vegas, Hotties

FabSugar — Mon, 19 May 2008 16:00:22 -0700

Is there anything hotter than a little Diane von Furstenberg hot-pink mini dress? If you've got the gams and the guts to pull one off, I say do it! What Happens in Vegas may be a fictional story, but when it comes to real life and fashion I say live it up. For something more cool-girl rock 'n' roll, Lake Bell's character opted for a studded LBD and slouchy grey boots. There's something here for the party girl and her wild-child friend - which one is more you?

Behind the Seams: Kate Moss' White Wedding With Agent Provocateur

FabSugar — Wed, 07 May 2008 14:00:22 -0700

How very Kate Moss of Kate Moss to wear all black at her white wedding. Don't panic - she didn't run off and marry boyfriend Jamie Hince.

To celebrate the launch of Kate Moss for Agent Provocateur Bridal - because you know there's always a celebration - Kate and her posse partied the evening away at Milk Studios in NYC. Fabulous guests in attendance included Julia Restoin-Roitfeld, Lake Bell, and Byrdie Bell (no relation). Several neon signs, including one behind the bar that screamed "Let Them Eat Kate," made it very clear who the party was in honor of . . . the bride in black, of course!

FabSugar — Tue, 06 May 2008 12:07:40 -0700

Thunder! Lightening! Lake Bell's body con Balmain dress made her one of fiercest ladies of the night. Both her body glove and and Burberry shoes scream, "Beware." Storm would be proud . . .
