The Bag To Have: Marc Jacobs Flap Shoulder Bag

FabSugar — Thu, 21 Jun 2007 03:30:33 -0700

I was minding my own business, just casually browsing Barneys' website (research right?), when I suddenly ran into this Marc Jacobs Flap Shoulder Bag, on sale for $359 (originally $539). Now, you know I'm partial to anything MJ so it's no big surprise that I stopped off at his section. What excited me beyond belief was the red font indicating a sale!

Fall is months away but true fashionistas are already preparing their closets for the crunchy leaves and gloomier weather. This flap bag is incredibly right for the upcoming season; it's utilitarian in size and has just the right amount of adornments (the gold chain and signature pushlock).

What really attracted me to this particular MJ is that it's simple and hardcore at the same time. The chain link gives it some pizazz but unlike the Stam and other Fall bags, it retains some down-to-earth-ness. A round of applause to Marc for yet another handbag well done - clap, clap clap!

The Bag to Have: Linea Pelle Lola Shoulder Bag

FabSugar — Thu, 07 Jun 2007 06:01:33 -0700

Everyone from Hayden Panettiere to Katherine Heigl has been seen carrying incredibly well-made Linea Pelle handbags. But that's not the only reason this Lola Shoulder Bag, $470, is the bag to have. The vibrant limonetta color (left) is what first grabbed my attention. It's nearly Summer, which means time to hide those dark brown and black bags, and to carry something a little more fun and light-hearted. Lola is here to help, and it's rather affordable compared to many of the other high-priced bags on the market!

It's also made of South American leather, which means it's ultra durable and long lasting. What makes Lola a true knockout, besides its scrumptious hue, is its braided handles and brass hardware. A feminine bag with masculine features...I love it! And don't worry about having to match it with all your outfits; a little clashing never hurt anyone. I would carry Lola with a full skirt with a fun print, a simple white tee and flats.

Each year, I look out for a new shiny bag I can make my partner in crime for the holidays. This Kate Spade Sequined Long Shoulder Bag ($375) totally fits the bill. I dig the long strap and how the texture is imperfect. Bummer it's so expensive.

Ginnifer Goodwin Goes Wide and Striped: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 14:00:22 -0700

I'm usually a fan of Ginnifer Goodwin's style. She's polished, feminine, and apt to taking risks. Well, she took a risk here at an event for Alicia Silverstone's new book, The Kind Diet, but I'm not sure it worked. I love the mix of velvet and stripes, but the bold shoulders are a bit too bold for her small frame. Dark skinny jeans, the same Stella McCartney pumps Gwyneth Paltrow wore, and a yellow fringed bag add further sass to her ensemble. Thoughts?
