Trend Alert: Aztec Techno

FabSugar — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 07:00:22 PDT

Magnificent. Simply magnificent. In my humble op, model Arlenis Sosa was best-dressed at the Topshop opening preparty in NYC. Her aztec techno dress is club-ready, while she humbled it with a smart black satin blazer. A sleek pony let her gorgeous face shine. No frills, completely Fab. Take Arlenis's lead and choose one vibrant piece to lead the pack in.

Trend Alert: Exotic Cover Ups

FabSugar — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 05:00:11 PDT

When you're wearing a plain ensemble, why not spruce things up with an exotic cover up? Just look to Nicole Richie (left) for inspiration. Her black tank and jeans combo is far from boring thanks to the colorful addition of her embellished, sheer cover up.

Word to the wise: You don't have to travel to the far East Indies to find this look. Check out your local flea markets to find the cheapest and best selection.

Trend Alert: Caftans

All this talk about Summer coming to an end be gone! There's still time to hit the beach, lounge poolside and wear all your favorite sundresses. If you need a boost to reinforce the laid back lifestyle that is Summer, a caftan is the definition of sunshine glamour. Some of you may be turned off by this classic cover up, thinking it's unflattering, but with the proper accessories - sassy espadrilles, oversized shades, fabulous beach bag - there's still time to sprinkle a little glam all over the world. Who was a fan of the caftan? Fabcon Jackie O was, 'nuff said.
