FabSugar — Wed, 13 Jan 2010 06:50:22 PST

New York Fashion Week is a month away. To prepare, I'm going back to basics. For starters, I'll be wearing all black, all month. I want to encourage you to go back to basics with me, so I've set out to find the best of the best in a few basic categories. Let's start with the perfect white shirt. Most of us have one in our wardrobe, but it's time for an update. Something classic, with an edge - an oversize bow, some lace, a puff shoulder, ruffles. Are you ready to get back to basics?

Men in White: The Jolie-Pitt Boys Keep It Cool

LilSugar — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 13:17:53 PDT

Brad Pitt and his lil sidekicks, Maddox, 7, and Pax, 4, didn't break a sweat as they made their way to board a water taxi in Venice. The trio kept cool in shades of white with daddy looking dapper in a cream button up and fedora and sons wearing lightweight linen and cotton shirts. While Pax paired his with a pair of white pants, Maddox opted for a black tee and cargos. The threesome looked like they enjoyed their guy time.

Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron, and Chris Hemsworth Reunite For a SWATH Photo Shoot

Katie Henry — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 07:55:06 PST

Kristen Stewart teamed up with her Snow White and the Huntsman costars Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron for a photo shoot in LA Friday. Kristen arrived in a casual hoodie and later changed into a plaid shirt to pose with her leading man, Chris. The trio wrapped the film just before the holidays and since then they've all kept busy with new projects and well-deserved vacations.

Earlier this month it was announced that Kristen will be the new face of Balenciaga perfume while Charlize scored the February cover of W magazine. Meanwhile, Chris and his wife Elsa Patakay announced they're expecting their first child later this year and also vacationed off the coast of St. Barts with Matt Damon. Chris and Matt let loose during their stay in the Caribbean, and even partied with George Clooney's ex Lisa Snowdon. Snow White and the Huntsman hits theaters June 1 and we can look forward to seeing a lot more of Chris, Kristen, and Charlize in the upcoming months.

Shirtless Matt Damon and Chris Hemsworth Make a Splash on a Super Yacht With Their Bikini-Clad Wives

Lauren Turner — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 20:45:57 PST

It was a star-studded afternoon on the water off the coast of St. Barts today! Matt and Luciana Damon popped up on a mega yacht with Chris Hemsworth and his wife, Elsa Pataky, and other friends. They spent the day lounging on the huge watercraft, which featured a helicopter and helipad, and taking turns riding down an inflatable slide. Matt went shirtless while Chris also showed off his hot Avengers physique sans shirt. Luciana donned a black bikini when she wasn't covered up in a white maxi dress, and Elsa wore a skimpy dark two-piece as well. It was just announced that Elsa and Chris are expecting their first child after getting married in 2010, and Elsa's growing baby bump was on display during the sunny vacation.

Tired Traveler? 8 Tips to Get Your Baby Back to Sleeping

Kate Stahl — Sun, 01 Jan 2012 09:15:41 PST

It's prime vacation time! While your pre-baby trips probably involved stocking up on sleep, travel with a lil one can be anything but restful. Just ask me: my 9-month-old was sleeping 12 hours a night last week, but since we arrived in Florida a few days ago, I'm back to 3-4 hour stretches. Torture. Luckily, one of the fellow guests at our resort is a pediatrician, and she helped with a few tips to get my go-go baby - and yours, too - back on the right track.

Try to arrive before bedtime so your lil one has time to acclimate. Let her explore the new room, and explain where you are and where everyone will be sleeping.
Bring a white noise machine or fan to mask strange new noises.
Follow your at-home bedtime routine; give your baby a soothing warm bath, read books quietly, nurse in a darkened room . . . whatever usually works for you.
Try to re-create her sleeping location as best you can by bringing a crib sheet or blanket from home (even a worn shirt of mom's can help). Also make the new room's lighting as similar to home as possible. Keep clicking for four more tips.

Look of the Day: Festive Prints

FabSugar — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 03:00:05 PST

Fab reader JustPatience dressed up a daytime look with a festive, feminine edge. She wore a navy blue and white polka-dot sweater over a collared shirt and topped the patterned look with a girlie pearl necklace. Her cream lace skirt, ruby red clutch, and open-toed leopard print booties add a triple pop of color and print. We think this ensemble is holiday party ready and totally gorgeous.

Congrats to JustPatience!

Everyone else, submit your looks, and we might just feature you on FabSugar!
