I Want This Wardrobe: Lipstick Jungle

FabSugar — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 14:00:22 -0700

While the women of Lipstick Jungle continue to juggle their fabulous lives, they do so in smart dresses, pared down basics, costume jewelry, and high heels. Yep, sounds like the powerful New York women I know. We're starting to see a very casual Wendy, due to her newfound unemployment, while Nico and Victory always looks stellar - and colorful! Here are the three beauties smiling for the camera, say cheese.

Trend Alert: Sky High Mary Janes

FabSugar — Tue, 29 May 2007 07:40:44 -0700

The Mary Jane is an iconic shoe. It's a shoe that both a mother and daughter can wear. It's a classic; it's a staple. It's one of those items that can be recreated over and over and will never get old. And today we have sky high Mary Janes. With that same youthful strap, or two, across the top, these MJs are a force to be reckoned with, or shall I say, those who wear them are. If you're a bit sky high shy, here are some tips on how to survive killer heels!

Trend Alert: Satin Party Platforms

FabSugar — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 16:00:22 -0800

It's almost party time people. Catch up on your sleep and get your party wardrobe in order now to avoid holiday burnout. While you could go the princess route, like Kristen Stewart did at the New Moon LA premiere, on the other side of the red carpet, was Dakota Fanning in a flirtatious lace Valentino frock and satin party platforms. I have a black lace-up Banana Republic pair I'm looking forward to dusting off, though fanciful colors like blood red, fuchsia, and navy have their own appeal.

Fab's Fashion Night Out!

FabSugar — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 14:13:36 -0700

While Pop was chatting it up with Gwen Stefani, I was doing what Fashion's Night Out was supposed to do - shopping! And gallivanting and celeb-spotting. You ready for my FNO adventure? My fellow fashion junkie friend and I started at Bergdorf Goodman where many fashion festivities were going on. Along the way I saw Rachel Bilson and Hayden waiting for their car in front of their hotel - I said hi to her but don't think she remembered me from when I interviewed her at Brian Reyes's show last Fashion Week. Moving on, as expected, there was a line to get into the department store, and it was a madhouse inside. I spotted jewelry designer Philip Crangi on the way in; it's hard to miss him, he looks like a pirate. We went straight to the shoe department where we fawned over Balmain boots, Giuseppe Zanotti lovers, awesome Alaia's, and Chanel flats. We quickly decided to leave the Bergdorf madness, but stopped at the M.C.L jewelry counter and said hi to model cutie Karlie Kloss on the way out.

To hear about my epic fashion night out and to see lots more FNO pics,

We dashed down to Soho - my main goal of the night was the Intermix party where Sienna and Savannah Miller were hosting. The streets were alive with fashion! I had to pop into J.Crew (conveniently located across the street from Intermix) where I bought a super-cute long gold jeweled mushroom pendant.

Intermix was the place to be, with an ultra-fashion-y crowd and cool '80s tunes. Someone asked us if it was true Rihanna was supposed to come and before I knew it flashes were frenzied and there she was. We were actually in line for the bathroom when this happened and her and her posse came right towards us hence my super-close picture of her. She was incognito chic in a black wraparound-hooded dress and insane Grace Jones-esque shades and crimson lips. She posed for pics with a subtle smile on her face, the crowd was mesmerized. What a cool surprise! But where's Sienna?

There she is, sis in tow. But Sienna's hosting wasn't nearly as impressive as Rihanna's - the Millers sisters were outtie, they didn't even stay for champagne. Wha? We had a dinner date at Indochine at 11p.m., but along the way my friend bought a pair of fly boots from Steven Steve Madden and I scored a glam rockin' purple sequin blazer from Topshop. They aren't online, so I can't show you, but they're dope and we did our economy-stimulating part of the evening. Done and done.

Cruising into Indochine was unreal. Iman was in the first booth, post-bartending at Barneys Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen were in the next, and models Lily Donaldson and Daria (Daria!) Werbowy were smoking cigarettes another booth away. Can you say awesome? We met up with fellow bloggers Faran from Nylon and Britt from Fashionista and gobbled up wonderful exotic fare. At one point I was in the bathroom with Iman and totally froze - her beauty is unreal. I headed home and had sweet dreams of fashion - goodnight Fashion's Night Out!

Congrats to fashion_addict!

Online Sale Alert! Fall Sale at Victoria's Secret!

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Oct 2007 08:30:22 -0700

Whenever Victoria's Secret has a sale, I shop there more than can be healthy. If you're the same way, pop some Airborne, because it's VS sale time! They're knocking 25% off a couple of their bra lines, selling five pairs of panties for $25, and marking down a lot of their clothing, shoes, and accessories.

These Steven by Steve Madden Patent leather flats, $69 (originally $99), are ultra-walkable and sassy to boot! I love their patent sheen, and you really can't go wrong with the ballet flat shape.

Trend Alert: Trapezoid Shaped Handbags

FabSugar — Wed, 11 Apr 2007 14:53:33 -0700

Last week I confided in you that I was never a geometry whiz. It appears handbags have taken a fresh form and the trapezoid is the newest shape du jour. With a narrower top and widening bottom, these are the pears of the glorious handbag field. Some call them satchels, some call them totes, I call them the shape of things to come.

Salvatore Ferragamo Mediterraneo Top-Handle Satchel, $1,190.
