Shopping the Oscars' Red Carpet Trends: Subtle Sparklers

FabSugar — Mon, 28 Feb 2011 12:42:05 PST

One of the biggest trends of the Oscars' red carpet was the lovely march of ethereal sparkle via nude or blush gowns. Halle Berry shone in Marchesa, Mandy Moore glowed in Monique Lhuillier, and a bevy of stars proved that a little sparkle is a big way to shine. It's a refreshingly easy trend to work into your wardrobe: try a sparkly J.Crew skirt ($350) with a nude tank, or just do a little glitter for work with a cream cardigan ($29). Click items to buy.

Look of the Day: A Touch of Sparkle

FabSugar — Tue, 11 Jan 2011 04:45:05 PST

Just because it's snowing doesn't mean you put on a snowsuit, particularly not if you're Fab reader elle down. Her sparkly city chic outfit positively shines. We love how she toughened up a glam skirt with a black leather jacket and chain-link purse, but still keeps it feminine with a knotted top and sparkly earrings. Opaque black tights and black booties keep the outfit looking sleek, and Winter-weather ready.

Congrats to elle down!

Everyone else, submit your looks, and I might feature you on FabSugar!

Freaky or Fabulous: Super Sparkly Bodysuit a la McQueen

FabSugar — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 09:00:22 PDT

Is there such a thing as sparkle overkill? Nah. The fact that sequins, beads, rhinestones, crystals, and all that glitters have not left fashion for years is a testament to that. Sure, in small doses it can be sweet and pretty, but that's not how Alexander McQueen rolls. Check his bronze jewel-encrusted bodysuit as seen on Abbey Lee Kershaw in Vogue Italia. Fits like a dipped-in-gold glove - head to toe and spiked heel. Her platinum locks further illuminate the scene. If I were sporting this super sparkly bodysuit I'd be hitting the town. I'm like a moth to a flame, but you tell me: freaky or Fab?

Hot mama and supermodel Heidi Klum attended a Project Runway discussion in just enough sparkle to make her stand out but not stick out. She toned down her sequined tank and scarf with a too-cool blazer, dark skinny jeans, and black patent pumps. This look is the perfect model for those who love sequins but don't want to drown in them. Shine on, Heidi!

Oyster Lovers: Make These!

Katie Sweeney — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 10:45:11 PST

Although you can essentially enjoy the briny bivalve all year round, it's widely known that oysters are best eaten in months that have a letter "R." Oysters are delicious on the half shell, but my favorite way to prepare them is casino-style. Bacon and butter make everything taste better! The best thing about this recipe is that it can be prepared in advance. The herb butter will keep for a couple of days in the fridge, and the bacon can be crisped the night before you plan to serve the oysters. Bake them just before eating. Offer the oysters with sparkling wine and you've got the perfect appetizer. Here's the uncomplicated recipe.

Diane Kruger Picks a Dramatic Look For Her Royal Debut

Katie Henry — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 12:37:57 PST

All eyes were on Diane Kruger as she made her way down the red carpet at tonight's Berlin Film Festival premiere of Farewell, My Queen. She began the day at a photocall wearing a colorful look from 10 Crosby by Derek Lam and chatted with press, in her native German, about director Benoît Jacquot's dramatic Marie Antoinette tale. She spoke freely about the project, and even addressed the movie's over the top fashion. Diane said of the wardrobe, "I personally hate historical films where people just look at dresses and hair. . . I had to forget that to do the film. . .You need to see the woman Marie Antoinette, not just the queen."

For tonight's screening Diane went for a bolder look and turned up the sparkle factor in a beaded Giambattista Valli Couture gown, jeweled Judith Leiber clutch, and edgy cuff earrings. Diane and boyfriend Joshua Jackson are one of our favorite red-carpet pairs, and they're right at the top of our pre-Valentine's Day list of Hollywood's cutest couples. He couldn't be with her tonight, but she did have the company of the film festival's director, Dieter Kosslick.

Camila Alves Debuts Her Sparkling Engagement Ring on the Red Carpet

Lauren Turner — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 08:56:42 PST

Camila Alves looked gorgeous in a red dress with a cutout back as she posed on her way into QVC's runway show in NYC last night. All eyes were on Camila Alves's sparkling engagement ring, which she proudly displayed for the cameras. Camila and longtime boyfriend Matthew McConaughey became engaged over the holidays, but this is the first we've seen of the three-stone bauble. Camila and Matthew are just one of many cute celebrity couples in Hollywood, though Camila was without her man yesterday. New York Fashion Week officially starts today, but Camila helped kick off the festivities at the QVC event, which also saw support from Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and Olivia Palermo.

Foods That Can Make You Look Pregnant

Shape — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 04:29:06 PST

We are excited to share one of our fave stories from Shape here on FitSugar.

Over the weekend, I saw a photo of a female celebrity (who is in a relationship with a male celeb) leaving a café with the caption, "Baby bump?" and I had to refrain myself from shouting out loud, "Come on, can't a girl eat without the world thinking she's having a baby?!"

The truth is having a perfectly flat stomach all the time just isn't normal. After you eat or drink, food and liquids naturally expand your stomach and intestines, so at least a little "bump" is inevitable every single day. So if you regularly get stalked by paparazzi or you have family members who are anxiously awaiting news of a new addition, here's the lowdown on when you might get mistaken for being pregnant:

See which foods may make you look pregnant after the break!

Beyoncé Reveals Hot Postbaby Body in Tight Dress One Month After Blue's Birth!

Allie Merriam — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:06:30 PST

Beyoncé Knowles went out in NYC last night to watch her husband Jay-Z's performance at Carnegie Hall. It was Beyoncé's first public appearance since giving birth to daughter Blue Ivy Carter exactly one month ago. She wore a tight, rust-colored dress from the Alice by Temperley line, paired with Christian Louboutin heels, bright blue nail polish, and a huge sparkling ring in the same hue as her daughter's name for the occasion. Beyoncé released the first pictures on her website and was also photographed leaving the venue with a big smile on her face at the end of the evening.

Baby Blue stayed home, but her presence was noted while Jay was onstage - he performed his track "Glory," which features her infant noises from when she was only 1-day-old. Afterwards, Jay noted on stage that he wasn't sure he was going to make it through the song without getting emotional. Beyoncé was a few minutes behind Jay-Z as they headed off to celebrate his show at his newly reopened 40/40 Club. As she headed inside, Beyoncé spoke about Jay-Z's return to the stage, saying, "It was amazing."
