Glitterarti: Carrie Necklace at Punky Pins

FabSugarUK — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 06:00:15 -0700

Don't pretend like you're not actually counting down the days til the release of the Sex and The City Movie and that you haven't already dusted down your best pair of heels in preparation! But, have you considered a name necklace yet? Having a 'Carrie' name necklace (unless your name is Carrie) might be an obsessive fan step too far even for me, but fear not as they can be personalised and delivered straight to your door.

This necklace is by Punky Pins and will set you back a mere £20. Not bad when compared to those £400 Manolo heels that you're going to have to get.

Trend Alert: Strut Like an Egyptian

FabSugar — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 06:50:22 -0700

Here's the thing - I'm a pretty anti-sequel kind of gal. Why mess with perfection? Filming for Sex and the City 2 has begun, and though I may be skeptical about the movie, I'm not about the wardrobe. And really, that's half (more than half?) of what made the first SATC movie faboo. So . . . I can be swayed. Especially after seeing Carrie's first outfit from the film: what appears to be a Halston Heritage white dress, gold glitter Louboutins, gold mirrored aviators, and Carrie strutting like an Egyptian with her stunning multi-faceted necklace. What a stunner. Jump on this new jewelry trend before it hits theaters.

GeekSugar — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 03:50:57 -0700

As Rachel Zoe would say, "I die." These Twitter St@tus Symbol Necklaces sure do make the tweet necklace look so boring and blasé. Brought to you by Survival of the Hippest, these cute custom-made Twitter necklaces can be designed with your own Twitter name or a favorite hashtag from sterling silver, or 10 and 14k gold (they even offer diamond embellishments!). Just like Carrie's personalized necklace from Sex and the City, you can subliminally give strangers your contact info - hello new followers! Necklaces cost $50 and up depending on how long your handle is.

The Vampire Diaries "You're Undead to Me": The Good, the Bad, and the Bloody

BuzzSugar — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 12:45:29 -0700

We're on the brink of big stuff on The Vampire Diaries, and it's definitely become a reason to stay home on Thursdays nights. Everything just got real - from Damon's nature to the Big Secret. I love dissecting the show almost as much as I love seeing a strapping young vampire in a black v-neck shirt, so let's talk about this week's good, bad, and bloody!

To see them (warning - spoilers ahead!) and chat, just read more.

The Good:

I'm really starting to care for people outside the threesome, particularly Bonnie. Her Carrie-like setting the car on fire is chilling (seriously, no one but Stefan saw that?) and her seeking out her grandma to find out what's going on with her has me really interested. Even if the casting of 47-year-old Jasmine Guy (Whitley from A Different World) is sort of unbelievable.
I'm also intrigued by this ragtag antivampire squad, which includes Caroline's mother, Tyler's mother, and Logan. Last week, they seemed to know exactly what's been haunting Mystic Falls, and I got the ominous feeling that these "regular" townsfolk may not be what they seem. I also want to know more about why they're assembling certain objects, like the necklace and pocket watch (Horcruxes?!)

The Bad:

The newsreel, you guys. The newsreel is so silly - while I balked at that footage being so easy to find and so clear, it's worse that the newsman exclaims "Is that the nephew?!" and have the camera swing to Stefan in the shadows.
My other big problem with this week's episode is the Uncle Zach situation. I can't remember them explaining if Uncle Zach was a vampire, but he really seems to be dead. I assumed he was also a vampire until this week, when he tells Damon that he could have had a real family. So what was he? Human? Vampire? And was the crow Zach's familiar, or a crow that Damon found and killed for sustenance? There are larger implications for the unanswered questions, so I hope they're tied up next week.
Can we also know exactly what the deal is with vervain? K thanks.

The Bloody:

I wasn't expecting Uncle Zach to meet his end so quickly, even if the show had made him pretty inconsequential.
Poor Vickie became another victim of Damon's - she can't have any blood left, right?
We also saw what happens when vampires go out in the sun without their protective jewelry on. Scab city!

It seems like we've reached a pretty big climax in the show: Damon has just asserted himself as a pretty evil villain, while Elena had that oh-so-important realization of every young vampire's love interest: The Epiphany. That scene is not too terribly dissimilar from Bella's (here's a reminder!) and Elena wants answers next week. Also next week? The Civil War-era flashback! I can't wait. What did you think of this week's Vampire Diaries?

Found! Carrie Bradshaw's Gold Aviators

FabSugar — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 14:00:08 -0700

Sex and the City 2 hasn't even come out yet and I'm already going gaga over Carrie's wardrobe. I loved her Egyptian-inspired necklace, but her gold aviators are also pretty sick.

In case you're wondering, they're Mykita & Bernard Willhelm's Franz Limited-Edition Aviator Sheet-Metal Sunglasses ($525), and they're currently on pre-sale at Patricia Field. The style was named for Franz Klammer, an Olympic gold medal downhill skiier who was known for his reflective eyewear on the slopes. The price is steep, yes, but it's worth it to channel Carrie B.

Which Louis Vuitton Party Girl Is Most Fab?

FabSugar — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 12:00:22 -0700

Louis Vuitton threw a party in New York to celebrate the launch of the 40th anniversary of the lunar landing. Any reason to party, right? A handful of PYTs showed up, most of them wearing at least one piece from the house. Jessica Szohr wore the Fall '09 platforms with a lace dress and military jacket; Cassie rocked the green tulip skirt and Loubs; Miranda Kerr carried the gold clutch along with a ruffle dress; Whitney Port looked sophisticated in a Rachel Comey LBD and pearl chain necklace; and a pregnant Adriana Lima wore a misty chiffon dress. Only one can be most Fab, who's it gonna be?

Wine Glass Top Appetizer Plate: Love It or Hate It?

YumSugar — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 06:50:44 -0700

When we recently posed the question of whether you'd be willing to wear a wine necklace to free your hands at a food event, most of you responded with a resounding no. Here's another multitasking solution for your next food fête: an appetizer plate sized to fit a wine glass, so you can carry both in one hand. While it's more spill-proof and less risqué than a wine necklace, it does cover the glass entirely, making it harder to throw back a few drinks. How do you feel about it?
