Fab Finding Follow Up: Winter Weekend Escape

FabSugar — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 16:00:22 -0800

In the midst of all of the end-of-year madness, sometimes it's nice to take a breather. Let's face it: Holidays may mean you take off time from work, but they're no vacation.

To get some true you time, you're taking a weekend escape to a friend's cabin up in Lake Tahoe. I started you off with this Floral Crochet Hat ($28) because it's a cute topper and will keep your head cozy. Be sure to check out all the Winter escape Fab Finds.

Let's see what you all came up with!

Oh! Now, you can build outfits by creating a list of clothing items. We have everything you need to build outfits with, and you can use your Fab Find bookmarks, too. This is an even better way to put together an entire outfit when you are completing your Fab Finding missions.

Look #1, created by fashionhore, is very Winter chic; I love the draped neckline of the coat and the unexpected pumpkin-colored gloves.

Definition: Pom Pom

FabSugar — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 12:40:22 -0700

Pom Pom

Decoration consisting of a ball of tufted wool, silk or other fluffy material; used as a decoration on clothing such as hats and slippers, but can also be found on tops, shoes and handbags. Also, just a fun word to say.

Get your pom pom on with this Diesel Coloritos Hooded Sweater, $230.

Trend Alert: Fun With Pom-Poms

FabSugar — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 09:00:22 -0800

There are two types of pom-poms. The Summer pom, often found on sandals and scarves, is funky and festive. The Winter pom provides spunk to sweaters and hats. Both allow fun with pom-poms. The pom-pom is an adorable detail that signifies humor and not taking yourself too seriously. Totally fun.

Fall Glimpse: Hot Toes

FabSugar — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 15:00:22 -0700

No Fall glimpse would be complete without a preview of some of the most captivating shoes to trot down the runways. The boot of the season is no doubt the over-the-knee, while wicked platforms and cutesie pumps rule, too. Heels got a lot of play - curved, pin straight, studded, wooden. And textures were wild: brocade, woven leather, super stretch, rich suede, ruffled. It's time to experiment. Stare again at these John Galliano pom pom lace-ups? Well, I nevah!

FabSugar — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 05:00:22 -0800

When did DVF get so good? With the usual star studded front row, can you believe DVF's Fall show brought out Diana Ross? Upside down, you turn me, inside out . . . Diane keeps catering to the exotic, and this turn the nomad was her muse. Tribal prints, cozy sweater capes, corduroy, cashmere, beading, and pom pom infested hats keep her nomad warm and stylish. Layers were piled on, colors were a plenty. There's lots to look forward to here, check out my top 10 . . . Source

Marc by Marc Jacobs Faux Fur Beanie: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Mon, 06 Aug 2007 10:20:22 -0700

Practically speaking, hats are supposed to shield you from the cold. In fashion, however, hats are one of the best solutions for giving your outfit some class and sass.

This Marc by Marc Jacobs Faux Fur Beanie Hat, $168, will keep you warm come Fall, but I'm not so sure it'll make you look Fab. The pom-pom makes it look like a child's hat (and I usually love pom-poms) and the rib-knit trim conjures up images of a cheesy ski lodge. Plus, it makes the model look like a cone head. Do you agree?

Fab Finding Follow Up: Tennis Cutie

FabSugar — Fri, 23 Mar 2007 16:07:55 -0700

As you all know by now one of Spring's biggest trends is Get Sporty. I was recently flipping through a magazine and was inspired by one of Mischa's ads for Keds. I've been thinking of taking up tennis lately - there are some free courts right by my apartment - and it's time to start getting back into shape for the summer!

I asked you all to go Fab Finding for a super cute tennis outfit. It should be functional and fashionable and brownie points for throwing in some pom pom socks (love them!). To see all the tennis outfit fab finds click here. Let's see what you all came up with!

Look #1, focuses on this adidas by Stella McCartney: Tennis Dress found by Moni B, Spun Sugar and DesignRchic. Fit is also a fan!. This outfit was built by Spun Sugar

Fab Finding Follow Up: Ice Skate Away

FabSugar — Fri, 02 Jan 2009 12:00:08 -0800

Not only does San Francisco have an ice skating rink during the holidays, it has three. Lucky us. The one in Union Square is close to work, so my friends are meeting me there for some ice-skating fun. Unfortunately, it's going to be freezing, so I asked you to help me bundle up in style.

I started you off with these Urban Outfitters Leather Ruffle Gloves ($48) because they're precious and will keep my fingers from getting frostbite. Let's see what you all came up with!

Look #1, created by MashiaraQCS, is layering at its best. Check out that cool wool sweater.

Look #2, created by plasticapple, is partly classic, all chic. I love the pom-pom hat!

Look #3, created by marimiau, will make me the funkiest skater on the ice. I like that.
