I Love Your ShopStyle: Killer Color Combo

FabSugar — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 07:00:08 -0700

Right when I saw ddtigreiss's creation, I said, "What a killer color combo." Think about it - on their own, black, orange, and silver are great, but put them together and BAM! In this pairing, black lends seriousness, silver shine, and orange vivaciousness. One hue would not be the same without the other . . . it's a ménage à trois, for colors.

Manoush Multicolored Tiered Dress: Love It or Hate It?

Am I looking at a dress or a piñata? No disrespect to Manoush because I normally like her designs, but this Manoush Multicolored Tiered Dress ($480) should have never left the showroom. That amount of tiers wouldn't even look good on a stick-skinny model. Maybe, just maybe if it were all one color it would be better, but the colorblock makes it silly. Am I being way harsh?

I Want This Wardrobe: Victory Ford, Lipstick Jungle

FabSugar — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 15:00:22 -0800

How many times do we say it's all about the accessories? Victory Ford of Lipstick Jungle knows this. Even when her eyes are set on landing a tennis pro's clothing line, she adorns a LWD to perfection. Layered rhinestone necklaces, a strong shoe, and a pop of color clutch are key Victory accents. I'm sure her business partner-slash-ex Joe was dazzled but not enough for him to do the deed we've been waiting for. Alas, we have to anticipate another Friday night for the answer to that one; in the meantime, feast your eyes.

Designer Spotlight: Manoush

Bohemian girl Frederique Trou-Roy was between jobs, so she decided to wander around Morocco (good choice!). While there, she scoured the street workshops, hunted for old scarves, and had the local craftsmen make leather shopping bags with metal detailing and sequin-embroidered wicker baskets for her. From the escapade, her Parisian label Manoush was born, a melange of gypsy influences and wearable clothes.

Manoush is available at Net-A-Porter or eDressMe, and runs $185-$710.

You gotta love celebs; one day they're on How Would YOU Wear It? and the next they're on Celebrity Style! Rod's daughter looks exquisite in her Manoush LBD. She's adorable and sophisticated at the same time. And of course those Yves Saint Laurent platforms don't hurt either. The one thing she lacks is color, so I took it upon myself to give her a pair of divine purple earrings. Work it girl!
