Trend Alert: Cat Print Minis

FabSugar — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 07:50:22 -0700

Sigh, I will never tire of Miranda Kerr's cuteness. In addition to being one of Victoria's Secret's top models, the natural beauty is also a master at casual cool styling. While running errands in her native hometown of Sydney, Australia, she cranked up the fashion factor by pairing a blazer and tee with a vivacious cat print mini. Genius. These savage minis - whether lush leopard, cheetah, or tiger prints - add the ideal dose of animal instinct, and look best paired with loose casual tops. Just look at Miranda for inspiration; you know I will.

A Fabby Halloween: The Flintstones

FabSugar — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 04:00:22 -0700

The Flintstones would be so proud to see how their Stone Age fashions have influenced some of fashion's best. Peep Jeremy Scott's Spring '10 collection to see what I'm talking about. The quirky designer featured an awe-inspiring line based off the hit '60s cartoon complete with bone barrettes, bright colors, and animal prints. No doubt, Wilma and Betty would be super stoked to wear his kitschy confections. Thankfully, you don't have to buy designer to achieve the Flintstones' archaic look. Seek animal prints, faux-fur vests, and natural chunky jewelry for sexy Stone Age appeal - Wilmaaaaa!

I can't wait to cozy up in lush leopard come Fall. Yes, we've done the animal print thing, but leopard prints stand apart from the crowd with their sophisticated feline appeal. For the upcoming chilly months, layer your pet with wool coats and opaque tights. Shy ones, step into the trend via scarves, gloves, and shoes for minimal commitment and maximum appeal. Show off that roar!

2009 Fall: Michael Michael Kors and Kors

FabSugar — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 09:00:22 -0700

Now that Fall ready-to-wear is all shown and done, designers are showing their lesser priced ideas. Michael Kor's neon notions might have been overboard for you, but his better-priced Michael Michael Kors and Kors lines are also punked up. Alongside simple LBDs, acid wash jeans, stormy prints, biker boots, stripes, and animal prints rule. This line is obviously geared toward (and priced for) the younger consumer, and colors stay in the bold black/white/gray/pink range. Works for me. Source
