Kristen Stewart in Futuristic Sheer Balenciaga: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 14:34:36 -0800

She's smiling wide - and her panties are showing! - I think she likes her latest New Moon premiere look. I can't blame Kristen, it's a brand spankin' new Balenciaga Spring '10 dress. The actress stuck with her favorite dark palette but the varying textures keep things interesting. And sexy - look, she's showing slight cleavage via sheer panels. Black booties and a black leather bracelet serve as minimal accessories. You dig?

Vote on all Kristen's New Moon looks!

Paris Fashion Week, Spring 2010: Balenciaga

FabSugarUK — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 02:30:58 -0700

Paris Fashion Week continued yesterday with some of the cities biggest design names. Balenciaga, Isabel Marant and Balmain took their designs to catwalk showcasing what we'll be wearing next Spring. Nicolas Ghesquière layered up at Balenciaga with strung together waistcoats and hooded sleeveless jackets. Leather continued to be an important fabric with motorcycle trousers, kilts and jackets. There was a sporty feel to the items with elasticated detailing, pockets, and hoods. Ghesquière definitely went for a more Streetwear angle, he told Style, "I wanted to do something urban. No more history for the moment!"

There was also an industrial feel to the collection with panels of colour, engineered fabric and exposed zips. Miranda Kerr made a rare catwalk appearance in grey leather showing off her versatility. To see more images from the collection, just keep reading

Trend Alert: Drawstring Bags

FabSugar — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 09:06:03 -0700

There are two rules I abide by when shopping: function and fashion. That's why I'm so smitten with the resurgence of drawstring bags. This sporty, luxe attitude goes perfectly with today's casual cool style and even translates well when paired with tailored ensembles. Oh, on another note, I purchased a crackly gold metallic version of this Foley + Corinna Drawstring Bag ($445) a couple months ago - so rad.

InStyle magazine sure knows how to throw a party. This week at its Summer Soiree party in LA, celebs toasted the night wearing their best cocktail gear. Here are my favorite looks: Ashlee Simpson in a champagne-colored Jill Stuart playsuit; Jordana Brewster in gold Reem Acra; Jessica Stroup in a chic LBD; Katie Cassidy in Balenciaga; and Eliza Dushku in sexy Herve Leger. Each hottie oozed playfulness in her own sassy way - which one is your fave?

Fall Glimpse: Drape Escape

FabSugar — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 14:00:22 -0700

Draping is a classic fashion technique - we can learn this from studying Madame Grès and the Romans. This classic has been rejiggered, reworked, revitalized for Fall. From dramatic Givenchy draping (left) to delicate Wu draping, I'm going to have to plan on a drape escape come cozy time. From midnight hues to creamy ones, drapery is decidedly romantic; the way it moves furthers any woman's erotic appeal. Source: Getty

Fall Glimpse: Gray Day

FabSugar — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 14:00:22 -0700

Fall is nearing and my wallet is taking a momentary nap. Are you ready to review my favorite Fall trends? These are the clothes I am most excited for. Everyone's talking about the '80s power dressing revival - been there, done that. Let's dig a little deeper, shall we? Starting with my favorite neutral: gray day. Gray has a natural way of appearing modern, sporty, and versatile. Take this Versace gown; it is all of the above, with a strict serving of sex appeal. Gray days are meant for a mellow life, and yet they still deliver a strong statement. Happy gray day.

Fab Ad: Jennifer Connelly for Balenciaga

FabSugarUK — Fri, 07 Aug 2009 00:00:08 -0700

Jennifer Connelly has returned as the face of Balenciaga this Autumn after a brief hiatus. She last appeared in the campaign in Spring 2008 in an impressive heeled gladiator boots. I am happy to see her return to Balenciaga, but can't help but feel that this campaign is a bit awkward. Fellow blogger Sassy Bella was less than impressed by the shot, which has also been described as looking like she'd passed out drunk. One things for sure, it certainly shows off the clothing well. Otherwise, I'm not sure about this image which was shot by Steven Meisel – what do you think?

Fab Ad: Balenciaga, Fall '09 Starring Jennifer Connelly

FabSugar — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 12:00:22 -0700

Jennifer Connelly is back as the Balenciaga muse. For Spring '08 she was standing proud, she sat out two seasons, and for Fall she's sprawled out on a couch. Many are commenting that her pose this time around is awkward and too sexy for the house, but I think her pose last time was equally stiff and awkward. Let me paint the picture for you: legs spread, arms stretched, and nearly falling off a couch, albeit in ultra chic polka-dot tights and killer shoes. Just looking at it is giving me a pain in my neck. What do you make of this?

Bag to Have: Balenciaga Arena

FabSugarUK — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 03:00:33 -0700

High School Musical star Ashley Tisdale arrived in to JFK yesterday clutching her cute puppy Maui. Whilst I have a soft spot for this adorable pet, it was her other arm candy that I'm left lusting after. She was carrying the latest Balenciaga accessory – the Arena ($1,745/about £1060), which is the newest twist on the classic handbag style. The nude colour palette is popular this season and looks great contrasted again the silver hardware. What do you think of this designer tote?
