This will be Cynthia Vincent's first time designing a budget-friendly line and Eugenia's second, following her teamup with Urban Outfitters. Details are to be determined, but we do know both collections will bow online and in stores on April 18 - nice!

Trend Alert: Advanced Etching

CasaSugar — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 05:30:00 -0800

Dating back to the 1500s, etching, using acid or mordant to cut into a material, is certainly a thing of the past. There's actually an old cliché that I love: in an effort to entice a woman home with him, a man will say, "Want to come up and see my etchings?" as an offer to come look at something artistic. But ladies, these days etchings are something worth taking a look at. Designers have abandoned girlish mirror and glass etchings, using new materials like acrylic and plastic, using laser to etch, or even adding color like a tattoo. And these advanced etchings aren't simply decorative. Many, like the Ghost Acrylic Candelabra ($65), make a trompe-l'œil statement. See more modern etchings.

Trend Alert: Pin It

FabSugar — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 04:50:22 -0800

Move over studs, there's a new embellishment in town: safety pins. These pins have broken out of their sewing kits and into our wardrobe via sparkly earrings, printed tops, bracelets, and slick blazers. America Ferrera feels me. Her Moschino crepe dress would be a safe LBD if it weren't for that amazing safety pin embellishment - such a burst of fun! How punk would you be if you DIY'd your own safety pin creation? All you need is a lot of safety pins and a little imagination. So what are you waiting for? Pin it.

Boardy Paper USB Stick: Totally Geeky or Geek Chic?

GeekSugar — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 13:25:42 -0700

Admittedly, I have a ton of USB sticks and funky flash drives hanging around my desk, but I have never seen one made out of paper. Until I found one while surfing online, that is.

But the Boardy USB Stick isn't your usual run-of-the-mill flash drive - it's made out of recycled paper and electronic parts to make an eco-friendly product you can use in any format. The only unfortunate thing about this product is its website. There's no price listed, and there's no mention of any memory capacity. Bummer.

Steal of the Day: West Elm Parsons Desk and More!

CasaSugar — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 11:00:16 -0700

I have never loved an inanimate object more than I love the polished white West Elm Parsons Desk with Drawers ($299, reduced from $329). For months, I literally scoured Craigslist every day until I got a bargain on a lightly used one. Unfortunately, I moved across country a few years ago and couldn't take it with me. So to see the table on sale has my heart racing, to say the least. The product is one of West Elm's best-selling items, and they rarely ever put it on sale. If you've been pining for one, now is your chance! West Elm also has a handful of other truly stylish items on sale right now, and I'm seriously considering snatching up a few of them. So check out this slideshow and let me do the bargain-hunting for you!
