 <title>Celebrity Style: Chloe Sevigny </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/2508961</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;This is why I adore Chloe Sevigny: While everyone else at the &lt;a href=&quot;http://popsugar.com/2504785&quot; &gt;grand opening party of Fontainebleau in Miami Beach&lt;/a&gt; showed up in fancy frocks, Chloe played by her own rules. She downplayed her olive corset mini dress with a &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/tags/jean+jackets&quot; &gt;cool cropped denim jacket&lt;/a&gt; and set her feet apart with leopard ankle-strap sandals. Finishing touches are a lucite bangle and a Chanel bag. Oh, and I&#039;m loving her &lt;a href=&quot;http://bellasugar.com/621294&quot; &gt;burnt orange lips&lt;/a&gt;. Chloe&#039;s done it again: Easy, breezy, yet dazzling. &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Trend Alert: The Suede Dress </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/2498803</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl1/0/3987/46_2008/01fd0bf6d530810b_Victoria_Beckham.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left outline xxlarge&quot; height=&quot;475&quot; width=&quot;300&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Spotted: Victoria and little Cruz &lt;a href=&quot;http://popsugar.com/2490469&quot; &gt;showing off their holiday spirit&lt;/a&gt; in LA. While the wee one rocked a festive Santa hat — &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lilsugar.com/2490934&quot; &gt;Lil can break his outfit down to you&lt;/a&gt; — Victoria kept it posh in a hunter green &lt;b&gt;suede dress&lt;/b&gt;. Though hard to come by, these sumptuous frocks are well worth the search. Word to the wise: Vintage shops are a cheap alternative to paying exuberant retail prices. I found my vintage suede Yves Saint Laurent dress at a local consignment store for only $30 dollars — score!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br class=clear-both /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>New York Fashion Week, Spring 2009: The New Pant</title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/slideshow/2021551</link>
 <description>&lt;a href=&quot;/slideshow/2021551?page=0&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl1/0/3987/38_2008/82820397.xlarge.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;New York Fashion Week, Spring 2009: The New Pant&quot; title=&quot;New York Fashion Week, Spring 2009: The New Pant&quot;  class=&quot;image xlarge inline left&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The item of clothing to put under the microscope from &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/tag/2009+Spring+New+York+Fashion+Week&quot;&gt;the Spring New York collections&lt;/a&gt; is the pants. Pant play has been creeping up on us — from Louis Vuitton&#039;s cropped and tailored trousers to Nina Ricci&#039;s silky pajama pants — but no item of clothing was rejiggered more than the pant. While Harem pants and slinky trousers have dramatic flair and seem to float down the runway, the real life wear is questionable. Case in point: Ralph Lauren&#039;s gold beaded pants. They are beautiful, no doubt, but would you wear these? I love sparkle and shine, and pants, so maybe I just need to warm up to the new notion.

 <title>Celebrity Style: Kate Hudson </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/1882982</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Kate Hudson left her casual California style behind when she jetsetted to London. The actress headed to dinner in a white suit, blue striped shirt, and &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/1065038&quot; &gt;Jimmy Choo&#039;s bracelet hobo&lt;/a&gt;. Silk scarves were all over &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/1061584&quot; &gt;Dolce &amp;amp; Gabbana&#039;s Fall collection&lt;/a&gt;, and now one has made its way onto Kate&#039;s neck. Nice. Since this look is a tad whitewashed, I also provided a metallic gray Kooba purse for some variety.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl1/0/3987/34_2008/82108-Kate-Hudson_0.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image center preview&quot; height=&quot;424&quot; width=&quot;550&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

 <title>Back to Cool: Clueless</title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/1878591</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl1/0/3987/34_2008/Picture%205_0_0.png&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left outline preview&quot; height=&quot;398&quot; width=&quot;275&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;In high school, it&#039;s all about boys, popularity, and clothes. Yep, sounds about right. No movie portrayed that better than &lt;a href=&quot;http://buzzsugar.com/tag/Clueless&quot; &gt;Clueless&lt;/a&gt;. In her most outstanding role, Alicia Silverstone played Cher, and along with her BF Dione, took newbie Tai under their wings and transformed her into one of the most coveted girls in school. All it took was a couple knee-high socks, short plaid skirts, platform pumps, and a Beverly Hills attitude. See, it&#039;s so easy to go from clueless to coolness. As if!&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Team USA in Ralph Lauren: Love It or Hate It?</title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/1855714</link>
 <description>&lt;!-- no strip poll --&gt;&lt;div id=&quot;epoll-view-1855714&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;new Ajax.Request(&#039;/epoll/view/1855714&#039;,{method:&#039;get&#039;,onSuccess:function(transport){var epoll=$(&#039;epoll-view-1855714&#039;);epoll.update(transport.responseText);}});&lt;/script&gt;&lt;noscript&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Last night after my relaxing hair cut (I love it, thanks for asking!), my pup and I cozied up on the couch and watched &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/tag/2008+olympics&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;the Olympics&lt;/a&gt; opening ceremony. Did you? I multitasked and caught up on my gossip mags while watching, but I waited to see Team USA in their Ralph Lauren designed outfits.The whopping 650 American athletes looked dapper in navy blazers emblazoned with oversized Polo ponies, off-white trousers, broadcloth shirts, white twill newsboy caps and striped silk neckwear; men wore ties and the women wore scarves. The goal was to create &quot;something simple enough for the athletes to put together, yet stylish enough to elevate us as a country,&quot; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.usatoday.com/life/lifestyle/fashion/2008-08-08-olympic-uniforms_N.htm&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;said David Lauren&lt;/a&gt;, the designer&#039;s son and the company&#039;s senior vice president of advertising, marketing and corporate communications.&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl1/0/3987/32_2008/82217154.preview.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image preview&quot; height=&quot;359&quot; width=&quot;550&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;I thought the team looked Fab. However, I felt they all looked like men. Maybe the women could have worn flippy tennis-like skirts? These athletes have such amazing bodies, I would have liked them shown off better. And the newsboy hats, though adorable, were a bit distracting. I wanted to see the smiles and proud faces better. I guess we&#039;ll just have to wait and watch them in their body con swimwear and thigh exposing volleyball bootie shorts!&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Look of the Day: Ralph Lauren Girl </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/1790484</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl1/0/3987/29_2008/Padova%20009.xxlarge.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; width=&quot;280&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/user/stefaniarocks&quot; &gt;stefaniarocks&lt;/a&gt; calls herself a &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/look/1788453&quot; &gt;Ralph Lauren girl&lt;/a&gt;, and I couldn&#039;t agree more. I would add that she&#039;s a less preppy version because she&#039;s thrown a rockin&#039; blue Balenciaga motorcycle bag into the mix. Classic meets cool.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here&#039;s what she has on:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Top: Ralph Lauren&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Shorts: Ralph Lauren&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Bag: Balenciaga&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Bracelet: Juicy Couture&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Congrats to &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/user/stefaniarocks&quot; &gt;stefaniarocks&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Everyone else, &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/node/add/look&quot; &gt;submit your looks&lt;/a&gt; and I might feature you on FabSugar!

 <title>Ralph Lauren Black Label Devon Silk Shantung Pant: Love It or Hate It?</title>

&lt;p&gt;How wonderfully Sandra D are these &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ralphlauren.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3031999&amp;amp;cp=1760788.2928195.2942103&amp;amp;view=all&amp;amp;ab=viewall&amp;amp;SMR=1&amp;amp;parentPage=family&amp;amp;camp=affiliate_k108283&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Ralph Lauren Black Label Devon Silk Shantung Pant&lt;/a&gt; ($300, originally $498)? True, I would not wear them in my day-to-day; false, I would turn them down come Halloween. The bright pink is so intoxicating, and you know I love the retro appeal of a cropped pant. Do you see my point or are these just an eye sore?&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Life&#039;s a Beach: St. Tropez Style </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/1702195</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl1/0/3987/24_2008/beyonce-bkini-1_0.preview.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; width=&quot;300&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;You want to take a glam-o-rous vacation? Do like Beyonce and head to the South of France. But wait! Don&#039;t forget your sizzling swimsuit. There&#039;s a whole lotta richies in that part of the world, so you must look the part even if you can&#039;t dish out the dough. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What does St. Tropez require from its beach-goers? Not that much. Just that you put on your sexiest swimsuit and look confident. One word of advice? Use &lt;a href=&quot;http://bellasugar.com/tags/self+tanner&quot; &gt;self-tanner&lt;/a&gt; weeks before you go. Pale + St. Tropez = no no.   &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Life&#039;s a Beach: Ferocious Feline</title>

 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl1/0/3987/24_2008/76021849edit.preview.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; height=&quot;550&quot; width=&quot;270&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Be a &lt;b&gt;ferocious feline&lt;/b&gt; this Summer in lusty animal prints. It&#039;s easy to strut fierce in a spotted, sexy one piece or body con two-piece like Aussie designer Myer (left). One thing is sure, these classy and sassy prints are a sure way to perk up your wet getup, so let me hear you R-O-A-R!&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Life&#039;s a Beach: One Piece, All Fabulous</title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/1697313</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl1/0/3987/24_2008/25025_Scan10636_122_144lo.preview.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; width=&quot;300&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Gone are the days when one-piece bathing suits are reserved for the shy and self-conscious. These days, girls of all shapes and styles are picking up one-pieces because they can be as, if not more, sexy than bikinis. Case in point: Naomi Campbell looks hot as hell in an exotic leopard-print one-piece. OK, she&#039;s speeding on a motorcycle but you get the gist. In this category, you&#039;ll find styles from retro to steamy, playful to girlie, and pinup. Like I said, &lt;b&gt;one piece, all fabulous&lt;/b&gt;! &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe width=&quot;562&quot; height=&quot;254&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; src=&quot;http://widget.shopstyle.com/widget?pid=Fabsugar8&amp;amp;look=447740&amp;amp;width=4&amp;amp;height=1&amp;amp;layouttype=0&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://community.livejournal.com/modelcouture/748772.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Source&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

We found a first look at the new Olympic uniforms on Towleroad and just had to share them with you.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Who Wore It Better? Ralph Lauren Floral Ruffle Dress </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/1568702</link>
 <description>&lt;!-- no strip poll --&gt;&lt;div id=&quot;epoll-view-1568702&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;new Ajax.Request(&#039;/epoll/view/1568702&#039;,{method:&#039;get&#039;,onSuccess:function(transport){var epoll=$(&#039;epoll-view-1568702&#039;);epoll.update(transport.responseText);}});&lt;/script&gt;&lt;noscript&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When I saw photos of Diane Kruger wearing Ralph Lauren&#039;s floral ruffle dress at the &lt;a href=&quot;http://popsugar.com/986990&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Sideaction AIDS benefit in Paris&lt;/a&gt;, I instantly approved. Her nude clutch and minimal use of jewelry really work to showcase the feminine print. More recently, Ralph Lauren model, Lonneke Engel, wore the same dress to an event in NYC. The brunette chose to accessorize with a gold metallic clutch and stayed away from any jewelry. Both gals do the dress justice, but who wore it better? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl1/0/3987/17_2008/WWIB-2.preview.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image center preview&quot; height=&quot;459&quot; width=&quot;550&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.wireimage.com/Default.aspx&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Source&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;label class=&quot;option&quot;&gt;&lt;input type=&quot;radio&quot; name=&quot;edit[choice]&quot; value=&quot;1&quot;   class=&quot;form-radio&quot; /&gt; Lonneke — her red lips and gold clutch are great accessories. &lt;/label&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

 <link>http://fabsugar.com/1505079</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl0/0/3987/13_2008/LOD_0.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; height=&quot;311&quot; width=&quot;137&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Inspired by a fellow &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/&quot; &gt;TeamSugar&lt;/a&gt; user, &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/user/Oxymoron&quot; &gt;Oxymoron&lt;/a&gt; decided to pull her blazer out the depths of her closet and give it another go-around. The fit of the blazer is perfection and the tennies give her look a dose of &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/look/1503885&quot; &gt;casual cool&lt;/a&gt;.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here&#039;s what she has on:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Blazer: Polo by Ralph Lauren&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Vest: Polo by Ralph Lauren&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Shirt: Zara&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Jeans: Guess&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Shoes: Emma Hope&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Handbag: Zara&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Congrats to &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/user/Oxymoron&quot; &gt;Oxymoron&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Trend Alert: Nautical Stripes </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/1503622</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl0/0/3987/13_2008/vanessa.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; height=&quot;525&quot; width=&quot;302&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There comes a time in every trend&#039;s life when it&#039;s no longer a trend and thus forth a fashion staple. &lt;b&gt;Nautical stripes&lt;/b&gt; reached that point hella long ago. When Coco Chanel first experimented with them they may have been seen as a flighting thing. But who doesn&#039;t want to channel feelings of the beach, the ocean, the waves? Looks like Vanessa Minnillo (in Sonia by Sonia Rykiel) and Coco have something in common — oh, and the rest of us lovers of fashion!&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Fab Site: Rugby.com </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/1127817</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Preppy meets cool at &lt;a href=&quot;http://rugby.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Rugby.com&lt;/a&gt;. Offspring of Ralph Lauren, Rugby.com offers a laid-back approach to preppy style. Classic (and sometimes stuffy) Ivy League staples are given an overhaul with bright colors and updated cuts. You can find an array of retailored polos, knits, sweaters, oxfords, chinos, denim, and, of course, rugby shirts that won&#039;t bore you. My favorite is the &lt;a href=&quot;http://rugby.com/collection/default.aspx?ab=topnav_r_RugbyCollection&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;madras patchwork blazer&lt;/a&gt; — quite Fabtastic.  &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>March Shopping Madness: Ruffle Me Up </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/1123159</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl0/0/3987/12_2008/ActressKa_Denis_51577731_600.preview.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; width=&quot;280&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kate Bosworth understands the power of ruffles. The Chanel-clad actress recently looked like &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/978609&quot; &gt;she walked straight off the catwalk&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://popsugar.com/1114208&quot; &gt;onto the red carpet&lt;/a&gt;. She kept hers controlled, but you can go as wild with your ruffles as you wish. The wonderful thing about ruffles is that they look good on just about anything: prints, solids, maxis, minis. If too much girliness is a turn-off, mix it up with tough accessories. Rough or refined, I say &lt;b&gt;ruffle me up&lt;/b&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Fab Flash: Ralph Lauren Launches American Living </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/1061381</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl0/0/3987/08_2008/laurenart.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; height=&quot;390&quot; width=&quot;265&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ralph Lauren and JC Penney &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/02/20/style/rlauren.php&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;have teamed up&lt;/a&gt; to launch American Living, an extensive new line of clothing.  This marks the first time Ralph Lauren has created a brand for another retailer without using the Ralph Lauren name or some indication of the name like Polo or RLX.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;American Living evokes the upscale American lifestyle that the Ralph Lauren brand is best known for — tailored navy blazers ($150), madras plaid skirts ($70), cable-knit sweaters ($60) — and is now available at 600 JC Penney stores and &lt;a href=&quot;http://americanliving.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;AmericanLiving.com&lt;/a&gt;.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Although the prices are 15 percent higher than other labels sold in JC Penney, Michael Boylson, chief marketing officer, counters that &quot;with American Living you can have great style, great quality, at an affordable price.&quot; Are you convinced?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/02/20/style/rlauren.php&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Source&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>New York Fashion Week Trend Alert: The Velveteen Fashionista</title>

 <description>&lt;a href=&quot;/slideshow/1042287?page=0&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl0/0/3987/07_2008/rlauren.xlarge.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;New York Fashion Week Trend Alert: The Velveteen Fashionista&quot; title=&quot;New York Fashion Week Trend Alert: The Velveteen Fashionista&quot;  class=&quot;image xlarge inline left&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Velvet is back, in a major way. The rich, heavy, but super soft fabric that conjures up images of Medieval Times, holiday dresses when I was five and the early &#039;90s, has taken a turn for the better. As long as crushed velvet stays at bay, today&#039;s velvet evokes romance and richness; such was the case at Ralph Lauren (left).  Nolens volens: Are you ready to be a velveteen fashionista?&lt;div id=&#039;pager&#039; style=&#039;margin:25px auto;text-align:center;margin:8px; &#039;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/slideshow/1042287?page=0&quot;&gt;Start Slideshow&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

 <title>Spring Peek: Frills</title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/942224</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl0/0/3987/02_2008/Amodelwa_Biasi_14753751_600.preview.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; width=&quot;300&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I enjoy being a girl. . . . If you find yourself romanced by ruffles, folds, and flowers &lt;a href=&quot;http://savvysugar.com/&quot; &gt;start saving up&lt;/a&gt; because this Spring is all about &lt;b&gt;frills&lt;/b&gt;. For those who oppose the dominant &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/tags/menswear&quot; &gt;menswear trend&lt;/a&gt;, no fear, girliness is here. Channel your inner &lt;b&gt;My Fair Lady&lt;/b&gt;, per Ralph Lauren (pictured), or simply have frilly fun. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br class=clear-both /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To see more frills, &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Fab Flash: Writers&#039; Strike Could Mean No Awards Red Carpet(!)</title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/892563</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/51_2007/gwyneth.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; height=&quot;441&quot; width=&quot;300&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We already have less &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/tag/gossip+girl/&quot; &gt;Gossip Girl&lt;/a&gt; episodes to look forward to than we should. Now, as we near the beginning of next year and awards season, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://buzzsugar.com/tags/writers+strike&quot; &gt;deadlocked writers&#039; strike&lt;/a&gt; may be putting even more kinks in the works: red-carpet fashion might just be a thing of the past.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Writers are already set to &lt;a href=&quot;http://buzzsugar.com/887384&quot; &gt;picket the Golden Globes&lt;/a&gt; on Jan. 13, and the Oscars are soon after on Feb. 24. Hollywood insiders &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.wwd.com/fashion/article/121048&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;are predicting&lt;/a&gt; that this could be a red carpet-less awards season, because the writers expect actors to refuse to cross the picket lines. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Imagine a world without &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/107977&quot; &gt;Reese&#039;s yellow Nina Ricci dress&lt;/a&gt; or Gwyneth&#039;s pink Ralph Lauren gown — what a sad, sad world indeed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://oscars.about.com/od/fashionbeauty/ig/Celebration-of-Oscar-Fashion/Gwyneth-Paltrow-in-Pink-Dress.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Source&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Fab Gift Guide: BFF Guy </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/877092</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/50_2007/2586_D.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image outline left preview&quot; width=&quot;275&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://dearsugar.com/245373&quot; &gt;No matter what anyone says&lt;/a&gt;, you and your &lt;b&gt;BFF Guy&lt;/b&gt; are strictly platonic — for real. He comes over without calling, belches in front of you, and treats you like his little sis. He&#039;s silly and kick back, so get him gifts that will suit his fun-loving personality. After all, he still has time to shape up and be a &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/869591&quot; &gt;young professional&lt;/a&gt;.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Be sure to peruse &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/tag/2007+holiday+gift+guide&quot; &gt;all of our Gift Guides&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/static/imgs/FabGiftGuide.pdf&quot; &gt;download our Fab Gift Guide worksheet&lt;/a&gt; to help keep you organized!&lt;br /&gt;

 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/46_2007/rl.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; height=&quot;454&quot; width=&quot;240&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The king of country club cool, Ralph Lauren, is celebrating his 40th anniversary in fashion this year, but he&#039;s currently doing something else that may interest you even more.  His &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ralphlauren.com/shop/index.jsp?categoryId=2928195&amp;amp;cp=1760788&amp;amp;ab=int_111007_womensale_shopnow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Fall Sale&lt;/a&gt; is in effect, with all the preppy chic blazers, sweaters, and polos you could possibly want.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Take this &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ralphlauren.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2817565&amp;amp;cp=1760788.2928195.1766601&amp;amp;ab=ln_sale_categories_sweaters&amp;amp;SMR=1&amp;amp;parentPage=family&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Ralph Lauren Wool Pony Crewneck Sweater&lt;/a&gt; ($89, originally $125): you really can never have enough classic sweaters.  They can be dressed up or dressed down — their versatility can&#039;t be beat.  Sold!&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Fab Flash: Luxury Brands Gone Wild! </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/771226</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/45_2007/cavallivodka_0.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left outline preview&quot; height=&quot;388&quot; width=&quot;136&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A new era is upon us: the age of &lt;a href=&quot;http://online.wsj.com/public/article/SB119448403906785900.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;luxury brands extending every which way&lt;/a&gt;.  &lt;a href=&quot;http://geeksugar.com/tags/Prada+Phone&quot; &gt;Prada is the purveyor of cell phones&lt;/a&gt;, Armani has signed a deal to do LCD TVs, and Roberto Cavalli is doing...vodka?!  Well-established companies are always looking for more ways to increase their revenue, but the question is: are these things really going to catch on?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The same phenomenon occurred in the late 80s, when French designer Pierre Cardin and American designer Halston both licensed their names to be used on so many products that they killed their luxury brand status.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Luxury brands today are supposedly more careful about the quality and quantity of their products, but no one is more singularly successful than Ralph Lauren, who sells everything from linens, candles, and beds to cashmere dog clothes.  Trying to emulate Mr. Lauren could be dangerous though: the current economic climate predicts a marked decrease in consumer spending.  If things go as expected, what will Mr. Cavalli do with all that vodka? &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/user/partysugar&quot; &gt;PartySugar&lt;/a&gt;: are you reading this? &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Look of the Day: A Study on Eclecticism </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/763141</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/45_2007/Navajo.xlarge.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; height=&quot;320&quot; width=&quot;125&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When the rest of us pull out our comfy duds for a lazy Sunday, &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/user/hebden&quot; &gt;hebden&lt;/a&gt; is &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/look/760274&quot; &gt;a study on eclecticism&lt;/a&gt;.  I may have to study her study: her styling wiles rival those of Patricia Field.  A navajo-inspired jacket, screenprinted t-shirt, jeans, and Chucks: who would have thought?  &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/user/hebden&quot; &gt;hebden&lt;/a&gt; would.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here&#039;s what she&#039;s wearing:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Shirt: Strand bookstore&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Cardigan: Vintage Ralph Lauren&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Jeans: Joe&#039;s&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Shoes: Converse&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Bag: Balenciaga&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Congrats to &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/user/hebden&quot; &gt;hebden&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Everyone else, &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/node/add/look&quot; &gt;submit your looks&lt;/a&gt; and I might feature you on FabSugar! If you live overseas and have a Fab outfit to share, join the &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/group/79611&quot; &gt;Overseas Fashionistas Group&lt;/a&gt;, to submit a Look in this group &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/user/teamsugar/blog/73745&quot; &gt;learn how to post a blog&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Happy 140th Birthday, Bazaar! </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/756720</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Pick up the November issue of &lt;b&gt;Harper&#039;s Bazaar&lt;/b&gt; and you&#039;ll soon realize that one of the greatest fashion magazines, started in 1867, is celebrating it&#039;s big 1-4-0! In a world so fickle, lasting that long in any industry is not easy. So let&#039;s put our hands together, clear our throats, and sing one of our favorite mags a happy birthday. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline center&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/44_2007/BAZAAR.preview.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image outline preview&quot; height=&quot;237&quot; width=&quot;550&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In celebration, this month&#039;s issue features quotes from the most influential designers today. They were asked former &lt;b&gt;Bazaar&lt;/b&gt; columnist Diana Vreeland&#039;s famous question, &quot;Why don&#039;t you?&quot; and here&#039;s what some had  to say...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&quot;Why don&#039;t you have a different pair of fabulous heels for each day of the week? Especially on the weekends!&quot; - Donatella Versace&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&quot;Why don&#039;t you break your limit of conventions and dress yourself over-the-top passionately? - Olivier Theyskens, Nina Ricci&lt;/li&gt;

 <title>Trend Alert: Beret Love </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/738699</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;How many berets do I have? Five. You already know &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/tags/hats&quot; &gt;I am obsessed with hats&lt;/a&gt; and I think the beret is the most wearable of all. From classic black to sequins to knit to topped with a pom pom, the &lt;b&gt;beret love&lt;/b&gt; is in full force for Fall. What&#039;s great is the beret spans decades; wear with &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/125011&quot; &gt;wide-legged jeans&lt;/a&gt; for a sassy &#039;70s look, top off &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/tags/pencil+skirt&quot; &gt;a sexy pencil skirt&lt;/a&gt; with one for a demure &#039;50s vibe, or, wear one with an &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/408377&quot; &gt;origami-fold&lt;/a&gt; dress for a modern look. See, there&#039;s nothing but beret love in the wonderful world of fashion.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Fab Read: Ralph Lauren Deluxe </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/728357</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Ralph Lauren has defined American style with his designs of luxury, adventure, and beauty. Now, he is sharing his private and public life with his devoted followers in &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Ralph-Lauren-Deluxe/dp/084783106X&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Ralph Lauren Deluxe&lt;/a&gt;, $252. The hardcover tome, which comes with a crocodile embossed-leather case, features never-before-seen pictures of Lauren with his family. Lauren also talks about his life, work, and inspiration. &lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/43_2007/51I0Ku57G9L._SS500__1.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image outline right preview&quot; width=&quot;360&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For the second part, Lauren hand-picked his most beloved work, which includes runway shots as well as advertising campaigns. What&#039;s more, the introduction features Audrey Hepburn, taken from her 1992 presentation speech at the &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/tags/2007+cfda+awards&quot; &gt;CFDA awards&lt;/a&gt;. This would make for a quite luxurious gift...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Front of garment is sleeveless and fabric wraps from underarm up and around back of neck, usually with a V front. This can refer to either a dress or a separate shirt, called a halter top. There are &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halterneck&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;many styles of halter necklines&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Celebrity Style: Victoria Beckham </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/660566</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Victoria Beckham was spotted at Narita Airport in Japan looking put together as usual and carrying her favorite Birkin bag. The long colorblock scarf is refreshing and lends to a casual feel, which we rarely see on Posh. She shows us that blazers are no longer only reserved for the office. We&#039;ll forgive her this time for not smiling — she&#039;s heading to London to visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://popsugar.com/659595&quot; &gt;David&#039;s father who had a heart attack&lt;/a&gt;. We wish him well. &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Fab Finds of the Week: Back in Black Boots</title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/646999</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;They come in all shapes and sizes, but there&#039;s no denying it: black boots are a Fall wardrobe staple.  I wore my favorite black boots so much last year, they ended up with holes in the soles!  Ankle boots, sexy high boots, rain boots, and more all popped up this week in your &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/fabfinds&quot; &gt;Fab Finds&lt;/a&gt;, so I&#039;ll have to look to these for my new favorite black boot!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Fab Finder of the week is &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/user/theconservatory&quot; &gt;theconservatory&lt;/a&gt;, who found these &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/user/theconservatory/fabfinds/645470&quot; &gt;funky buckled ankle boots&lt;/a&gt;.  Every week the Fab Finder I announce Monday morning will receive either a TeamSugar or FabSugar baby tee shirt. I thoroughly enjoy perusing your Fab Finds every week, so dare to be a Fab Finding trendsetter and you just might win a Sugar tee!&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>On Our Radar: Fashion Targets Breast Cancer Initiative </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/614941</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/37_2007/091007_37a.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; height=&quot;435&quot; width=&quot;290&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since 1994, when the initiative was founded, the Council of Fashion Designers of America&#039;s charitable interests have been with Fashion Targets Breast Cancer (FTBC).  To raise awareness and money for its cause, the CFDA &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.wwd.com/memopad/article/118669&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;has partnered&lt;/a&gt; with Net-a-Porter to begin &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.net-a-porter.com/FTBC&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;selling limited-edition FTBC items&lt;/a&gt; created by designers like Ralph Lauren, Rachel Roy, Oscar de la Renta, and Diane von Furstenberg.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Though the items will be sold throughout the year, the first available is a Ralph Lauren FTBC polo shirt, $75, exclusive to Net-a-Porter.  The net proceeds of all sales will stay in the purchaser&#039;s country, whether in the U.S. or abroad.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A fun &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.net-a-porter.com/FTBC/FTBehindTheScenes&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;behind-the-scenes &lt;/a&gt; look at the shirt&#039;s photo shoot, with models Daria Werbowy, Lily Donaldson, Sasha Pivovarova, Du Juan, and Lily Cole, is up on the site as well.   What a great idea for a great cause!  &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Fab Read: American Fashion </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/586815</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/35_2007/073107_p8a.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; height=&quot;366&quot; width=&quot;290&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You&#039;d think that it would have existed before now, but it didn&#039;t.  Before Charlie Scheips was commissioned by the Council of Fashion Designers of America to put together his new book, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/American-Fashion-Charlie-Scheips/dp/2759401618&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;American Fashion&lt;/a&gt;, $32, there was no tome chronicling the rich history of American Fashion.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Happily, and thanks to Mr. Scheips, the nation&#039;s contributions to fashion since 1929, from the fingertips of Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, Donna Karan, Mary McFadden, and more, are now at your fingertips.  And lots of pretty pictures are promised as well.  So if you&#039;re going to stick your nose in a good book, why not make it this one?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br class=clear-both /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Back to Cool: The Worldly Scholar</title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/516383</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/32_2007/Picture%205_5.png&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot; height=&quot;439&quot; width=&quot;293&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Even though I am well into my working years, I still get the back to school feeling around now. I just loved the anticipation of another year of school - who knew what was in store?! Also, I always looked forward to back to school shopping excursions, of course. Even if it was just school supplies, it was fun fun fun. For those of you who are getting ready for school days, I thought it would be fun to inspire some new, fresh looks for you based on my favorites from the Fall collections. With these looks, you&#039;ll no doubt be &lt;b&gt;back to cool&lt;/b&gt;...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Enter the &lt;b&gt;worldly scholar&lt;/b&gt;, based on &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/155626&quot; &gt;Balenciaga&#039;s unique global chic collection&lt;/a&gt;. The mix of khakis, ethnic touches and a tailored blazer brags: I was traveling the world this Summer and I&#039;m a force to be reckoned with. The perfect book bag? Why this &lt;a href=&quot;/496256&quot; &gt;red Marc by Marc Jacobs bag that is up for grabs&lt;/a&gt;! Jodhpurs and fur optional, attitude required.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br class=clear-both /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe width=&#039;550&#039; height=&#039;330&#039; scrolling=&#039;no&#039;  vpsace=&#039;0&#039; hspace=&#039;0&#039; frameborder=&#039;0&#039; src=&#039;http://fabsugar.com/user/FabSugar/list/526130/feed/xml?width=550/feed/widget?width=550&#039;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 <link>http://fabsugar.com/414443</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;May I present to you a classic: &lt;b&gt;the shirtdress&lt;/b&gt;. A timeless silhouette, these dresses can go from work to play with the swapping of accessories - and they are also date perfect (just unbutton a few on the top and the bottom). With the belted waist they complement womanly curves and you can even &lt;a href=&quot;http://teamsugar.com/look/330745&quot; &gt;switch up the belt&lt;/a&gt; to create a fresh look. As well, the shirtdress is a great transition piece from Summer to Fall - just add some tights and a cardi and cozy up! &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Belts Away!</title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/374298</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/27_2007/belts.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left outline preview&quot; height=&quot;429&quot; width=&quot;337&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Although it can be comfy to just have your dress loose and free-flowing in the heat of Summer, to keep as cool as possible, the right &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/tags/belts&quot; &gt;belt&lt;/a&gt; can really transform that loose summer dress into a figure-accentuating number - a totally different outfit with just the addition of one accessory.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This week&#039;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://lifeandstylemag.hollywood.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Life and Style&lt;/a&gt; looks to &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/tags/kate+bosworth&quot; &gt;Kate Bosworth&lt;/a&gt; for inspiration - the metallic belt she wore really adds a bit of edge to the washed out colors of her shirt dress.  The other great thing about investing in a metallic belt like Kate&#039;s is it&#039;s one of those pieces that transitions easily from Summer to Fall!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br class=clear-both /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To see some of my favorite metallic belts, &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Trend Alert: Tie-Dye...Man </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/363477</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;I think it is safe to say if you see something out-of-the-ordinary on a Miu Miu accessory, there&#039;s a reasonable chance it will become a future trend. If you happen to see &lt;a href=&quot;http://popsugar.com/292487&quot; &gt;Mary-Kate Olsen wearing that Miu Miu accessory&lt;/a&gt; the chances significantly increase. Not only is a 70&#039;s silhouette and, ahem - &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/tags/high-waisted+jeans&quot; &gt;high-waisted&lt;/a&gt; everything - back in style but the signature prints from the decade are sure to follow. Raise your hand if you tie dyed an old tee at camp back in the day? Get ready to whip out the old tie dye kit and steal a white v-neck from your dad again - &lt;b&gt;tie dye&lt;/b&gt; is back...man.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Celebrity Style: Paris Hilton</title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/349289</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Ok, I know everyone is sort of on &lt;a href=&quot;/347963&quot; &gt;Paris-overload&lt;/a&gt;, but just look at this virginal little outfit she wore on Larry King Live. I don&#039;t think Paris will change her ways because of her brief stint in &quot;jail,&quot; but her wardrobe sure has experienced a transformation. What do you all think: will she keep up her goody-goody image? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline center&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/26_2007/paris.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image preview&quot; height=&quot;527&quot; width=&quot;486&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

 <title>Definition: Poplin </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/346431</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/26_2007/poplin.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image left preview&quot;  width=&quot;300&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Poplin&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;n.&lt;/i&gt; A heavy, durable fabric consisting of a silk warp with a weft of worsted yarn. It is made with wool, cotton, silk, rayon, or any mixture of these, though originally made from silk. Poplins are used for dress purposes, and for rich upholstery work. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In recent years, Poplin has come to be associated with 100% cotton shirts and it is commonly used for high quality garments. The term originates from &quot;papeline,&quot; a fabric made at Avignon, France in the 1400s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br class=clear-both /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

 <title>Trend Alert: Good &#039;ol Aviators </title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/343264</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Sunglass trends come and go but &lt;b&gt;good &#039;ol aviators&lt;/b&gt; are forever. Always cool, always collected, aviators made a major comeback after the film &lt;b&gt;Top Gun&lt;/b&gt; - I mean, ok, Tom Cruise made them look good, but I think Val Kilmer made them look &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; good. Ice Man aside, I know you&#039;ve got a pair sitting in the back of the drawer and it&#039;s time for them to take flight again. For those who&#039;ve never ventured this way, here are some faves:&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Fab Body Guide: Perfectly Proportionate Shoulders</title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/328157</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;I have a blonde bombshell of a friend who is a self-proclaimed broad-shouldered gal. We recently went shopping together because she needed tops and dresses and I&#039;m here to help! We ended up scoring her some new fun and feminine pieces that helped proportion her shoulder with the rest of her bodacious bod. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m sure broad-shouldered broad Jessica Biel faces this challenge everyday and you can see such a difference between when she wears something ultra femme (left) and something not so femme (right). Not to say gals with broad shoulders can&#039;t wear a tee shirt when going casual, but here are some tips and items to trick the eye into thinking you have perfectly proportionate shoulders. Hope they help!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Loose deep v-neck sweaters, and v-necks in general, are your best friend.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Slouchy, menswearish trousers create more volume on the bottom therefore balancing out the shoulders.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Shrunken blazers with a nipped in waist make the upper half appear more compact.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A long, swingy top plays up the curve of the hips.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Contrary to what you may think, suspenders cut the shoulders down the middle and elongate the torso.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A feminine, flirty blouse softens an angular frame.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/25_2007/biel_0.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image preview&quot; height=&quot;490&quot; width=&quot;550&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe width=&#039;550&#039; height=&#039;325&#039; scrolling=&#039;no&#039;  vpsace=&#039;0&#039; hspace=&#039;0&#039; frameborder=&#039;0&#039; src=&#039;http://fabsugar.com/user/FabSugar/list/328227/feed/widget?width=550&#039;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Fab Flash: Brands Choose YouTube to Spread the Word</title>
 <link>http://fabsugar.com/281687</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Your favorite brands - Ralph Lauren, Gap (pictured), Victoria&#039;s Secret, Calvin Klein, Adidas and more - have all &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.wwd.com/issue/article/116232&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;recently&lt;/a&gt; turned to &lt;a href=&quot;http://youtube.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;YouTube&lt;/a&gt; to let young consumers know about their products via videos, commercials, behind-the-scenes, footage and fashion shows.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/0/3987/22_2007/Picture%202.png&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image outline left preview&quot;  width=&quot;300&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Although traditional media like TV, radio and print still dominate the advertising world, there has been a growth in the online advertising market and it shows no sign of stopping. Case in point: online ads accounted for 5.8 percent of the $285.1 billion spent on advertising in the U.S. last year according to eMarketer. So why YouTube? Because it&#039;s on demand and it allows consumers to choose what they want to watch instead of being told what to see. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To catch some behind-the-scenes videos and catwalk shows, go to &lt;a href=&quot;http://youtube.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;YouTube&lt;/a&gt;, type the name of the designer in the search box and voila! But don&#039;t forget there&#039;s always &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/tags/FABTV&quot; &gt;FABTV&lt;/a&gt; too!  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://youtube.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Source&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
