Guess the Sugar Girls at the PopSugar/Tech Crunch Party!

FabSugar — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 15:00:22 -0700

The PopSugar/Tech Crunch party has come and gone (tear). But what a way to kick off Spring! The party (last Thursday night) was a hit and most of us have finally recovered. Some of the Sugar girls were lucky enough to go down to LA and represent in style. I rounded up a good amount of the girls (and guy) for some Look Booking fun. I thought it would be even more fun for you to try to guess who the Sugar girls are. To be fair, I have dropped hints in the slides and here's who is pictured: PartySugar, Bella, Citizen, Pet, Team, Buzz, Geek, and of course, Pop. Happy guessing and doesn't everyone look Fab?!

Happy Hour: Sugarade and TechPunch

partysugar — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 13:28:31 -0700

Last Thursday night was the PopSugar/TechCrunch party - don't worry lots more party details to come! - in Los Angeles. TechCrunch was in charge of most of the preparty planning, but it was my job to name the specialty cocktails. The two drinks were created by Lotus - the fabulously smooth, antihangover vodka - and the names were created by yours truly with the help of my stylish partner in crime, FabSugar.

Sugarade is a potent variation of lemonade with a refreshing essence of lavender. TechPunch is a punch-colored mix of pomegranate and cranberry. Both recipes are super simple and can be easily re-created in your home bar. To take a look at the recipes, read more.

Geek Goes Chic: Etchstar Carves Place in My Cell and Heart

GeekSugar — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 09:00:29 -0700

In case you haven't heard, our recent party in LA was decidedly geek chic. PopSugar put on the event with our friends at TechCrunch, but it included an array of other sponsors who set up fun stations around the venue.

One of the stations was Etchstar, who I have written about in the past. The company sells custom laser etched and engraved preloaded iPods, cell phones, laptops, Moleskine journals and even metal dog tags and I have to say, they are adorable. During the party, most of the Sugar crew made their way over to the Etchstar booth to have their beloved BlackBerry's and iPhone's personalized with some one-of-a-kind etching creations. Thanks to the Etchstar team, we instantaneously had all our gadgetry customized with everything and anything from Sugar logos to stars and even skulls - so hot! Check out all the fun designs below.
