Cosabella's Summery Sex and the City Undies

FabSugar — Wed, 27 May 2009 04:50:22 -0700

I can always use a Sex and the City fix. Remember Cosabella designed special lingerie sets for the Fab four? They never stopped the fun. Peep Cosabella's new inspired Summer thongs. These will be available in June, $28 a piece, in the HBO store in NYC as well as on the Cosabella website. Can you guess which style goes with which foxy lady? Hints: Charlotte polka dots, Samantha hot red, Carrie flowers, and Miranda turquoise (personal fave).

Starting now, you can take home a piece of Sex and the City stylist Patricia Field. The fashion guru has teamed up with HSN to bring you her iconic and exclusive fashion collection which includes dresses, tops, jackets, bags, belts, and so much more. Many of Carrie Bradshaw's most popular looks from the movie (seen below) are also available. A special treat is that you get a free one-year Vogue subscription with each piece you purchase. My favorites are a Black Sequined Blazer ($140) and a Corsage Belt ($30).

Who Wore It Better? Michael Kors Floral Dress

FabSugar — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 12:00:22 -0700

Ooh, it's the battle of the Sex and the City women. Actress Kristin Davis first wore this Michael Kors floral dress to Late Show With David Letterman back in May. It was a fine choice, considering the season and the popularity of floral frocks. She chose to cinch her waist with a purple belt and decorate her feet with black slingback sandals. Creator of SATC, Candace Bushnell, just wore the same dress to the show's DVD launch party. Her version doesn't consist of a belt; only a long necklace, a leopard clutch, and metallic peep-toe sandals. Which sexy woman gets your vote?

Sneak Peek! Cosabella Fall Sex and the City Lingerie Collection

FabSugar — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 04:00:22 -0700

Cosabella is back with a Fall Sex and the City lingerie collection. They seem to have Carrie's and Samantha's personas down - pink lace for Carrie and steamy animal prints for Samantha - but something went haywire in the design department when designing for the other ladies of Sex and the City.

Charlotte's pea green sleepwear is dull and drab in comparison to her bubbly personality, while Miranda's line looks too cute and girlie with offerings of brown and pink lace undies. Kind of disappointing since the Spring collection was spot on. What do you think?

Here's some lingerie worth whipping out on your honeymoon. Myla London provides women with an oasis of luxurious lingerie and seductive toys. After opening their first store in Notting Hill, Myla quickly garnered a following of customers enamored with their romantically sexy lingerie including London's beloved Kate Moss.

Myla's success in the UK has since spread online and to the US with a store on NYC's Upper East Side - their freshwater pearl g-string was worn by the vivacious Samantha in Sex and the City - remember? So funny.

The Look For Less: Carrie Bradshaw

FabSugar — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 07:00:22 -0700

This (mainly) vintage Carrie ensemble was one of my favorites in the Sex and the City movie. It's also one of the hardest to copy. I did my best, but had to change the color story. Instead of mixing green florals, which costume designer Patricia Field did with the vintage dress and coat, I found some lovely yellow floral pieces. Still cute, yes? The famous Timmy Woods Eiffel Tower bag is already spawning copies and there are many other gold dangly gold bracelets out there that aren't Verdura (and are much cheaper!).

Smocked Summer Floral Dress - $39.50	ASOS Pyramid Stud Waist Belt - $32.45
Karen Kane Floral Print Jacket - $109.99	Beaded Eifel Tower Handbags in Black/Gold - $75.00

The Look For Less: Miranda Hobbes

FabSugar — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 04:00:22 -0700

Miranda may have one of the most far fetched wardrobes in the Sex and the City movie, mainly because she's a working mother who wears super chunky earrings, but it's fantasy land right? And it's fashion fodder for us. This is more of a Fall look that seriously complements Miranda auburn coloring but without the hefty Charlotte Ronson sweater jacket is Summer ready. In the movie her brown dress is Natalie Eshkenasy, her gold t-straps are Oscar de la Renta and her Faboo patchwork bag is Stuart Weitzman. See, aren't you glad I found a much cheaper way to act the part of Miranda Hobbes?

Design History carbon cotton-blend tie front long cardigan - $90.00	Ankle-Strap Sandal - $59.00
Design History light brown jersey pleated crewneck dress - $54.00	ASOS Patchwork Purse - $25.96
Weave Buckle Waist Belt - $10.80	Chain Mix Linear Earrings - $24.00

The Look For Less: Carrie Bradshaw

FabSugar — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 03:00:22 -0700

Here is a thoroughly modern Carrie look that didn't make it into the movie. Oh sh*t. Did I just spoil something? Nah. This outfit may look familiar though as it did appear in promotional items. Too bad it wasn't on the big screen because it's a keeper. It's also an expensive ensemble; the dress is Vivienne Westwood (that tailoring=to die for), the shoes are Manolo Blahnik, the feather clutch is Salvatore Ferragamo and the studded belt is vintage. This is the perfect look for a Sunday stroll. Here are some pieces to help you replicate it - I couldn't help but get Carried away . . .

Isaac Mizrahi for Target® Toile-Print Dress - Pink Wink - $39.99	Merona® Lace Peasant Skirt - White - $19.99
Rough Roses Five-Row Studded Belt in Vanilla - $79.00	Dolce Vita Tahiti Buckle Wedge Sandal - $130.00
The Jesse B. Collection Aubergine Clutch - $90.00	Vineyard Pearl Drops - $28.00
