The Look For Less: Gossip Girl's Serena Van Der Woodsen

FabSugar — Tue, 09 Sep 2008 14:00:08 -0700

Last night's episode of Gossip Girl wasn't as juicy as the premiere, but there were enough scrumptious affairs to keep us on our toes until next week. As the Upper East Siders left the Hamptons, Serena and Dan couldn't seem to keep their paws off one another. Seriously, who could resist Serena's temptation and her fabulous frock? Her tie-dye Adam maxi dress looks hippie-chic. To complete the ensemble, a layered Margo Morrison necklace and Sigerson Morrison sandals. Her cute party look inspired me to find a similar, cheaper outfit.

Celebrity Style: Molly Sims

FabSugar — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 11:00:22 -0700

Behold Molly Sims' swirly silk Alberta Ferretti goodness at the an LA photography exhibition hosted by the star. Yes, the pattern and colors of the dress make it unique, but I'm more drawn to her keen accessorizing abilities. Instead of leaving her neck bare, like most people would, Molly chose to layer different gold necklaces on top of one another for a chunky effect. This took the look from normal to snazzy. I also love her cork clutch and the deep-red peep toes because they're unexpected touches.

Double Take: Blake Lively Channels Sarah Jessica Parker

FabSugar — Thu, 15 May 2008 05:00:22 -0700

Many fashion followers are inspired by Sarah Jessica Parker, but Gossip Girl Blake Lively took her adoration to a more proactive level. At a recent event, she showed up wearing an outfit almost identical to an Yves Saint Laurent one that SJP wore not too long ago. Call it copying, call it inspiration, tomato, tomato, but the similarities are uncanny - the overly layered Margo Morrison New York necklaces, the champagne colored Dolce & Gabbana sheath dress, the blond pulled back hair. As long as SJP doesn't get perturbed, I don't have a problem with it. Do you?

The Look For Less: Givenchy Multi-Layer Chain Necklace

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 09:00:08 -0700

Her Madge-esty looked fittingly regal and gothic when she recently donned Givenchy's multi-layer chain necklace from his Fall collection. Something about the combination of all-black and heavy Mr. T-style chains is seriously lethal, in a good way. We can thank the brand's designer Riccardo Tisci for injecting feminine goth into our closets. Now if only said injection didn't bruise our bank accounts so badly . . .

My heart skipped a beat when I saw this Marciano Cynthia Multi-Layer Cross Necklace ($198), because it meant I could look designer but not adopt its spending habits. True, the price tag isn't cheap, but it beats paying thousands for the real deal. The way I see it, it's an investment necklace, and will be worth every penny when you get compliments left and right.

Mendel dress has the right amount of pouf and her Lanvin clutch just enough wildness. A delicate rhinestone necklace, layered bracelets, and ankle-strap black sandals make Diane even more divine.

Trend Alert: Necklace Mix

FabSugar — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 04:00:22 -0700

Joy's got the necklace mix down. It's so easy, and it elevates her simple look. It's also a sweet way to show off your sentimental style. I tend to layer chains with charms, and mix metals, but I'm now inspired to throw beads, chains, and ribbons into the mix. The only rule is, there is no rule! Have fun, don't hesitate to create, create, create.

I Want This Wardrobe: Serena van der Woodsen

FabSugar — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 18:00:22 -0700

While the majority of the Gossip Girls continue to frolic on campus, Serena van der Woodsen opted for the road less traveled. Judging from her her power-prowess outfit - Herve Leger bandage skirt, Slane & Slane layered necklace, and gray Topshop blazer - I deduce she's heading to a fashionable business meeting of sorts. Her take on business casual is far from boring and leans on the sexy side - true to Serena van der Woodsen nature. And who can miss her decadent embellished Valentino tote? So snazzy.

Boyfriend Blazer - $120.00	New ComfortZone Long Rib Tank - $19.95
Hervé Léger Bandage Mini Skirt - $600.00	Valentino Kaleido Tote - $2,995.00
Trinitie Grey Suede - $99.95	Tom Binns Pearls In Peril Collier - $1,858.50
Studded Arc Ring - $20.00
