Trend Alert: Big Blooms

FabSugar — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 14:00:22 -0800

It's time to scout your holiday dress of the season, and how can you resist the sweet smell of big blooms? Leighton sparkled in this blue, brush-painted rose silk bow front dress with patent belt by Prabal Gurung. If feminine and frilly is your thing, this is your lucky season. Oversize rosettes and flower motifs are not only in style, but quite classic, endlessly pretty. I say go dramatic or go home; I'm sure Leighton would second my emotion.

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Sayonara Brunch

FabSugar — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 09:00:08 -0700

Tear, a good friend of mine is moving to Japan this week. I'll miss her dearly, but I know she's in for a great adventure. To send her off with good memories, a group of us took her to a favorite eatery, Lime, for a sayonara brunch. I asked you to help me put together a cunningly cute outfit that included a jumpsuit. Remember this was just a brunch, so nothing super fancy.

I started you off with this Foley + Corinna Sling Bag ($450) because it was one of my must-have pieces in the look book. Let's see what you came up with!

Look #1, created by Sarahab145, is casually sleek. I like how the belt adds a fun quirky touch.

See the rest.

Trend Alert: Bejeweled Necklines

FabSugar — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 15:00:22 -0700

Bejeweled necklines just won't quit. When it looks this good, the staying power is strong. Emma Watson wore Proenza Schouler's bejeweled Resort dress to a Harry Potter photocall in London. The white and silver hues twinkle under her sweet smile. She even went the extra step and wore baby dangle earrings - just because your neckline is sparkling doesn't mean your ears can't too. Pretty enchanting.

Fall Into Shopbop

FabSugar — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 10:00:22 -0700

Out with the old, in with the new. Shopbop has slowly been making way for its fabulous Fall merchandise, and you'd better believe I've been checking daily to see which lucky pieces will make their way into my closet. I wish I could acquire it all, but since my budget won't allow for that, I've narrowed it down to 10 of my favorite must-have pieces. A little bit of plaid, a smidgen of leather, a dose of knit, and we've got an awesome autumn wardrobe to covet.

Trend Alert: Elongated Cardis

FabSugar — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 08:00:22 -0700

Hmmm. It's warm outside, but it might be chilly where I have to run errands - and pick up my caffeine fix at The Coffee Bean. What to wear? Elongated cardis are the perfect solution when you need a whisper-light layer. And, they're cool. They have a nonchalant attitude that you'll have, too. Just ask Ashley Tisdale, hand-in-hand with her man. Isn't life grand?

Movie News Roundup: Watts, Fox, Another 300 Movie and More

BuzzSugar — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 09:46:17 -0700

According to The Guardian, Naomi Watts will play one of King Lear's daughters in the next film adaptation of Shakespeare's play. Gwyneth Paltrow and Keira Knightley will take on the roles of the other two daughters to Anthony Hopkins's King Lear.
Matthew Fox is in talks to star in yet another one of Hollywood's comic book-turned-movies, Billy Smoke, about "an elite hit man who's nearly killed during a botched job and realizes that his only way to find redemption is to rid the world of all assassins."
Hollywood Reporter writes that Helena Bonham Carter will have a "small but pivotal role" in the fourth Terminator movie.
A follow-up to 300 is officially in the works, with Frank Miller currently writing the graphic novel on which it will be based. Though he's not committed yet, 300 director Zack Snyder is "definitely interested" to see what Miller comes up with. It's unclear whether the new installment will be a prequel or a spinoff, Variety reports.
Robert Rodriguez is casting his lady Rose McGowan yet again, this time for a new film version of Red Sonja, a story based on the fearsome woman warrior created by Robert E. Howard and later adapted for Marvel Comics, Variety writes.
According to Hollywood Reporter, four more ladies (Marcia Gay Harden, Kristen Wiig, Juliette Lewis and Zoe Bell) have joined Drew Barrymore's directorial feature Whip It, starring Ellen Page. The movie is based on the novel Derby Girl.

Trend Alert: Ruffles and Pleats, Please

FabSugar — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 05:00:11 -0700

We've chatted about pleats. We've oogled over ruffles. What do you get when you combine the two textural forces? Something delectable. So yes, I'll take ruffles and pleats, please. And a side of Keira Knightley wearing both in her grape-tastic Erdem frock. The cherry on top? A smile from the British babe -c'mon Keira!
