FabSugar — Fri, 05 Jun 2009 06:00:08 -0700

Stefaniarocks emotes casual cool today in her denim leggings and fringed booties. The key to laid-back dressing is accessorizing, and she did it with perfection in her superstar sunnies and slick skulls scarf. Take note of how she topped everything off with a fitted jacket for extra sharpness.

Here's what she has on:

Jacket: Ralph Lauren
Leggings: Urban Outfitters
Scarf: Alexander McQueen
Bag: Balenciaga
Boots: Minnetonka
Sunglasses: Dolce & Gabbana

Congrats to stefaniarocks!

Gucci Family Goes Stylishly Green

FabSugar — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 12:55:55 -0700

Earth Day has passed but designers are showing no signs of slowing down their eco initiatives. Next up to show its support for Mother Earth is Gucci Group, who have enlisted brands - such as Alexander McQueen, Yves Saint Laurent, and Bottega Veneta - to design limited-edition, sustainable products.

This eco initiative promotes the release of the environmentally conscious film, Home, which debuts June 5 on World Environment Day. Alexander McQueen's trippy earth skull design (left) will be printed on an organic cotton scarf to be sold in stores and online starting in June. Other eco endeavors include Gucci’s Frida Giannini and Yves Saint Laurent’s Stefano Pilati who design tees; Bottega Veneta will create a tote; and Sergio Rossi will design an eco pump made out of eco-sensitive materials. Proceeds from the sale will be donated to Goodplanet.org, an environmental-protection charity.

To see eco-friendly designs from Sergio Rossi, Bottega Veneta, and Yves Saint Laurent, read more.

Trend alert: Skulls

FabSugar — Tue, 22 Aug 2006 09:22:18 -0700

We've been hearing about this so-called skull trend for months, but most of the skull-emblazoned fashion I've seen looks like it belongs more in a Hot Topic than in a high-end boutique. But if you must wear a skull motif, the key is keeping it subtle and avoiding garments that could double as pirate flags.

Here are a few skullified finds:

Skull scarf, $19, available here

La Petite Mort 1960s checkered skirt, $95, available here

Look of the Day: Breath of Fresh Air

FabSugar — Thu, 21 Aug 2008 05:00:22 -0700

Sometimes you look at someone and think, what a breath of fresh air. That's precisely what happened when I saw mayale. She looks at ease, but her sun-kissed skin and fuchsia tank lend a burst of energy. Way to tie the look together with a cool skull scarf.

Here's what she's wearing:

Top: Costume National
Shorts: Zara
Scarf: Alexander McQueen
Bag: Fendi
Shoes: Castaner

Congrats to mayale!

Fab Gift Guide: Metro Man

FabSugar — Thu, 07 Dec 2006 10:00:51 -0800

Here's some juice about me: I dated a Metro Man this past summer, and while I certainly appreciate sharp style and good grooming, I had to end it when I realized he was higher maintenance than me.

How Would YOU Wear It? Kimberly Stewart

FabSugar — Tue, 19 Jun 2007 06:00:33 -0700

Thanks to Kate Moss and Sienna Miller - during her boho days - I really appreciate the hippie-chic look. Unfortunately, Kimberly Stewart, here in Santa Margherita for her dad's wedding, has over-accessorized her boho look so she looks beyond trendy. It would have been just right had she gotten rid of and changed a few items.

I would have ditched the skull scarf as that accessory has been beaten to death by Nicole Richie and crew. I like the fringe boots, but I would have opted for a brown pair a la Rachel Bilson. Everything else - the cuffed denim shorts, the aviator sunglasses, the Chanel bag and off-shoulder blouse - really convey the boho look well. Let's just hope she changed into a more fancy outfit for Rod's wedding!

How would YOU wear it?
