Fab Finger Discount: K Karl Lagerfeld Samantha Wide-Leg Jeans

FabSugar — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 04:00:22 -0800

Lightwash wide-leg jeans always remind me of the ever-fabulous Claudia Schiffer. It's ironic that these K Karl Lagerfeld Samantha Wide-Leg Jeans ($95, originally $270) are designed by one of Claudia's closest designer pals. Coincidence? And how amazing is that price tag? That's the least you're ever going to pay for a Lagerfeld-designed piece. The pale color, the high waist, and the wide legs are super '70s. Now all you need is a lavender blouse a la Claudia and you're good to groove.

Simply Fab: Insta-hem Non Permanent Hemming Adhesive

FabSugar — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 12:00:22 -0700

In an ideal world, we would have two pairs of the same jeans - one for flats and one for heels. But back to reality. Insta-hem ($18), a nonpermanent hemming tape, makes it possible to wear the same jeans in many ways. It has an adhesive back that is strong enough to stick to fabric and hold in place for several hours.

Say you love these Arden B. Tulip Pocket Denim Trousers ($68) with both platforms wedges and flat sandals. Now you can wear them with both without having to alter anything. I know, the fold-under technique isn't as attractive, but the alternative of paying a hefty alteration fee and having it be permanent is more brutal. Convinced? Follow the three-step instructions and you're good to fold.

We may not be experiencing Summer weather in the UK but the rest of the world appears to be breaking out their Summer wardrobe. Sugar reader oohpretty is rocking two of this season's hot trends in her Sunny Days look, wide legged trousers and bright colours. She's got the wide legged trousers look down well by teaming them with wedges which gives you a great silhouette.

Celebrity Style: Katie Holmes

FabSugar — Fri, 06 Apr 2007 16:58:27 -0700

Celebs are definitely embracing the wide legged jeans trend. And for those tall and modelesque ones, this is a way to look even taller - as if they need any more help! This is a first Celebrity Style for Katie Holmes and I have a feeling there will be more to come. While she is sporting these wide legged bad boys in a rather raver sort of way (memories!), she still manages to be polished with a butter leather bag and sleek leather jacket.

Trend Alert: Wide Legged Jeans!

FabSugar — Fri, 02 Feb 2007 14:21:44 -0800

Wahoo! As I predicted, the skinny jean backlash has begun and wide legged jeans are on the rise. Don't get me wrong - I have warmed up to the skinny silhouette, but I am a 70's girl at heart and love the elongating look of a wide legged pant. Also, I am tall so it makes my legs look super long. But for non-tall gals, it created a long, lean look so really, this is good news for all. With New York Fashion week officially under way, I wonder how many wide legs we're going to see on the runways for Fall 2007. Here is Mandy Moore from this week's Life & Style wearing some fab flares at the Sundance Film Festival.

Found! Rachel Bilson's Sassy Wide Legged Jeans

FabSugar — Sat, 21 Jul 2007 06:22:22 -0700

I'm so glad Rachel is back flaunting her adorable little self around town. While a dash of color would have spiced up this outfit, this girl knows how to wear jeans, especially these Seven for all Mankind Ginger Pant: Faded Denim Wash, $188. From the brown vintage looking belt, to the sleek black tank - and super-high platforms - this is how one should wear the newest style of jean.

Celebrity Style: Kristin Cavallari

FabSugar — Fri, 04 Apr 2008 12:00:22 -0700

Out on the town for another night on the LA club scene, Kristin Cavallari was channeling a laid-back '70s vibe in her loose, printed tank and Ditto wide-leg jeans. This is a fun spin on the usual sexy top and skinny jeans combo; I adore how she tucked in her shirt to show off that stylish higher rise waistline. She topped her look off with a gorgeous pair of back-to-nature leaf earrings. At this rate, she'll be competition for Lauren in more ways than one.

Milly Chain Halter Top - $210.00	Dittos The Classic in Navy - $158.00
Gaulla - $89.00	Kipepeo gold, Leaf Earrings (+) - $74.15
Leather Camera Bag - $48.00	Cubic zirconia bangle - $26.00
