Trend Alert: Sheer Sleeves

FabSugar — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 04:00:22 -0700

Sheer sleeves will surely keep you motivated to work out this Fall. In fact, I can't think of a better way to show off those hard earned toned biceps. Daring slim sleeve cuts, like this racy Derek Lam Zip Front Dress ($1,650), emote a more '80s vibe while billowy romantic sleeves, like the one January Jones recently wore allude a more modern aura. Take your pick . . .

Trend Alert: Spread Your Wings

FabSugar — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 07:00:22 -0700

The Dark Knight has stylishly swept Hilary Duff off her feet, and if you're feeling her look, join in the action and spread your wings Batman-style. Batwing cuts are the perfect transition piece for dwindling Summer months, and when worn in dark colors with booties - a la Hilary Duff - give you a fun, witchy vibe.

Life's a Beach: So Fresh and So Clean

FabSugar — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 15:00:22 -0700

There really is only one season you can wear white, on the feet that is. In the Fall or Winter, white sandals just don't feel right. As always, you can prove me wrong. But you have to admit Heidi Montag's white Chanel flats are mighty cute, admittedly, so is the rest of her sleek outfit. Heidi knows how it feels to be so fresh and so clean; you may also recall the dope white Jimmy Choos she wore to the MTV Movie Awards. Enough about Heidi, white sandals provide a blank canvas for just about any look. It's so easy.

Trend Alert: Shake Your Groove Thing

FabSugar — Fri, 23 May 2008 08:00:22 -0700

There's nothing better to shake your groove thing in than a disco-inspired jumpsuit. It's slightly different than a romper with shorts in that it's less resort-like and more dressy. We touched on the subject earlier this year because we had a hunch it would become a major Spring craze. And we were right. Emmanuelle Chriqui (in Stella McCartney), Rihanna (in Sonia Rykiel), Gwyneth Paltrow (in Stella McCartney), Diane Kruger, Helena Christensen . . . all these ladies have already shaken their groove thang, and you should, too.

The Look for Less: Paul & Joe Crepe Short Jumpsuit Tuxedo

FabSugar — Wed, 21 May 2008 02:00:22 -0700

I'm jumping for jumpers this season - kinda corny, but it's true. They're a good alternative to wearing shorts or dresses and they're so much fun! This Paul & Joe Ruffle Crepe Short Jumpsuit Tuxedo ($185, originally $370) is super cute and unique. I love the ruffle detailing but it's a bit pricey for something that's not necessarily dressy and yet not casual enough to wear often. What's a girl to do?

This Forever 21 Abigail Jumpsuit ($30) is the answer to my shopping woe. The cut is dead on and the white top gives the jumper a crisp, Parisian feel - mission accomplished.

Trend Alert: Off Shoulder Styles

FabSugar — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 03:00:08 -0700

What's your favorite body part? On you, I mean. One of mine is my shoulders. I've been told they're, you know, sexy. You would think I would be partial to off shoulder styles then. Well, I am. They are dead sexy, no? The only buzz kill is the whole what-kind-of-bra-to-wear-with-it dilemma. No matter, it's decided: These are sexy, my shoulders are sexy, so won't you join me and be sexy too?

Silk has a new look; it's more relaxed but hardened with tough details. This new silk utilitarian twist is more wearable and comfortable. Silk tops, jumpers, pants, and accessories have been updated with drawstrings, zippers and cargo pockets to lend a simultaneously chic and casual look. Gianfranco Ferre (left) went casual-lux with this zippered grape silk mechanic pantsuit. Now, buying silk can be an investment so I provided a couple silk-like items for you to wear this slick trend without stretching your wallet. As always, have fun . . .

Trend Alert: Bib Fronts

FabSugar — Tue, 05 Feb 2008 08:00:22 -0800

Though the name isn't very alluring, bib fronts are a sweet front detail for an array of tops and dresses. Named after one of the first articles of clothing we ever wore - a bib - I do not encourage you to make a mess all over these feminine pieces. To add some romance to a look, the bib front serves its purpose once again.
