If the Spring collections were any indication, it's time to dress up your shorts. Adam, Chanel, and Rebecca Taylor showed chic shorts, and we set out to bring the glam to our own wardrobe. Dressy shorts look sharp, and they show off your legs - a nice bonus when warm weather comes. We found five very cool, very different shorts - lace, metallic, paillettes, polka dots, and silk - and styled them in five unique ways. Pick your favorite shorts from our slideshow, and get shorty.

Trend Alert: Emerald Green

FabSugar — Tue, 18 Jan 2011 04:02:05 PST

Emerald green has risen as the color of the moment thanks to a plethora of stunning green dresses at the Golden Globes. But was green on a comeback even before stars chose it for the red carpet? We think so: bold green popped up on the Spring runways at Michael Kors and Prada. Start adding some green to your wardrobe, but make sure it's that deep, jewel-tone green, like these dangly earrings ($25) or lovely draped dress ($158). We promise you won't hear any Kermit the Frog jokes.

Trend Alert: Bow Belts

FabSugar — Fri, 29 May 2009 14:00:22 PDT

Where have all the bows gone? For a while, it was all studs and leather, so it's nice to see the sweet thang is still around. What better way to evoke femininity than with bow belts? Emmy Rossum, on the streets of LA, manages to look not overly saccharine with her silver bow belt, Dita von Teese H&M charity tee, and light wash jeans. Sweet with a touch of spice.

Who Wore It Better? Thread Social Tiered Silk Dress

FabSugar — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 06:00:22 PDT

We all loved how Famke Janssen styled her black and pink silk Thread Social dress with a studded clutch and black heels to the premiere of her latest movie Turn the River. But how do you feel about Tinsley Mortimer in the same fetching frock? She was spotted on location for Gossip Girl in Long Island wearing the ivory version accessorizing with silver heels and a matching clutch. I like the dark and light opposition but which look do you prefer?

Celebrity Style: Jamie-Lynn Sigler

Jamie-Lynn went to get her hair done at the Frederick Fekkai salon all by her lonesome self . . . well, that is if you don't count the stalkerish paparazzi following her! If a breath of fresh air had a look, this would be it. Her crisp-white dress is given a hint of ethnic via her Diane von Furstenberg Dolce sandals and her snakeskin Calvin Klein hobo. Ahh, can you feel the freshness?

Celebrity Style: Famke Janssen

FabSugar — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 12:00:22 PDT

Famke Janssen was out in NYC to premiere her latest movie Turn the River in Thread Social's blush pink minidress. The tiered petal-like ruffles are tempered perfectly by the contrasting bold neckline; her choice of a studded clutch to offer a subtle dose of toughness is well appreciated. Seems she's not the only celebrity touting the pink-and-black combo, either.

Celebrity Style: Marcia Cross

FabSugar — Tue, 05 Jun 2007 13:02:33 PDT

I've heard from a few of my friends who are "Desperate Housewives" fans that Marcia Cross' character, Bree, dresses much better on screen than off. I tend to agree, but at the Chrysalis Butterfly Ball, Marcia looks youthful and modern in her yellow silk dress. Although a bit of self tanner would have served her well, she still looks pretty and effortless. Normally, the color yellow drowns out women with pale skin, but Marcia's spicy hair revives the look with a dash of color!
