Trend Alert: Black Eyeliner and Pink Lips Abound at the VMAs

BellaSugarUK — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 07:30:00 -0700

Last night at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards in New York City, the most common makeup theme from the ladies on the red carpet was black, heavily lined eyes paired with pink lipstick. The eye style varied from dark and smoky on Kristin Cavallari to clean and winged on Madonna. Lips also came in a wide spectrum of shades ranging from candy floss pink on Solange Knowles to pinky-coral on Katy Perry.

MTV Video Music Awards: Cassie

FabSugar — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 19:25:16 -0700

Cassie kept it sassy at the VMAs by donning a plunging silk floral print minidress and killer metallic peep-toe booties. As if that weren't enough, the singer adorned her wrists with matching diamond cuffs, her ears with spunky earrings, and topped it all off with a bright yellow clutch. Is it too much or just right?

MTV Video Music Awards: Cassie

BellaSugar — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 18:31:15 -0700

Back in July, we saw Cassie with etches on the shaved side of this disconnected haircut, but tonight she's keeping that side soft and smooth, letting the longer part stand out with a little curl and some rolled texture. While it might seem like she doesn't have a whole lot of options with this distinctive cut, as evidenced by tonight's look, she most certainly does. Someone give kudos to Cassie's stylist for creating two looks in one. As for the makeup, it's all about the smoky eye and pink glossed lips. Are you a fan of Cassie's funky short and long twisted style or are you more of a traditional gal?

Trend Alert: 54 Jumpsuit

FabSugar — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 13:00:22 -0700

Cassie and I would have had hella fun at Studio 54 - but we would have had to coordinate clothes because she donned a 54 Jumpsuit last night at The September Issue premiere in NYC and I bought my Rachel Rachel Roy one last night. Great minds . . .

I am super stoked to flaunt mine. I know jumpsuits are trendy, but this classic black one says staying power, and dance party, to me. I was envisioning mine with strappy metallic sandals and sexy jewelry, but platform boots and hot pink nails are a fun Fall option.

Sienna's All Smiles With Anna For The September Issue

PopSugarUK — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 03:04:12 -0700

Sienna Miller accompanied Anna Wintour to a screening of new Vogue documentary The September Issue in New York yesterday evening. Sienna starred on September's cover of the American publication, and the documentary details all the work that goes into the biggest issue in the magazine's calendar year. My girl FabUK has the gossip on the stylish set that strutted down the red carpet last night, and guests at the screening included Diddy, Renee Zellweger, Cassie and our own Alexa Chung who, along with Sienna and Anna, upped the count of Brits at the stylish do!

Trend Alert: Poppin' Pink Nails

BellaSugar — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 08:00:04 -0700

As the end of the season approaches, you might expect wine-toned polishes, deeper hues of blue, or smoky taupes making an entrance. But with the warm weather still going strong, it looks like bright, fun colors haven't fallen by the wayside just yet. After catching a glimpse of Kim Kardashian wearing vivid, bubble-gum pink a few days ago, I was reminded of other ladies sporting some seriously pink nails in recent weeks.

To get the look, try OPI La Paz-itively Hot ($7), OPI Holy Pink Pagoda! ($7), or China Glaze Laced-Up ($5).

Trend Alert: Shaved and Shorn

BellaSugar — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 12:05:53 -0700

Tough-girl style is on the rise, as evidenced by the small but growing number of women who are pounding their heads against a Wahl. Using clippers to shave half of their hair off, they're channeling a look that's equal parts Tank Girl, Vanilla Ice, and punk-rock scene queen Rihanna, who just lopped off half of her hair, leaving some volume up top. Before her, Cassie shaved some designs into her shorn hair. London model Alice Dellal arguably revived the half-and-half hair trend last year, and now that official Bella girl crush Kate Lanphear has cropped her coif, it's only a matter of time before others follow suit.

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?

Trend Alert: The Undercut

BellaSugarUK — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 07:30:00 -0700

The undercut, a haircut where the sides and/or the back are shaven whilst the hair at the crown remains long isn't groundbreaking, however it certainly is bold! British model Alice Dellal has been sporting a half-shaven head for a couple of years and American singer Cassie has even designed zig-zags into her fade. I'm all for trying new things and think these women are brave and beautiful, but I'm curious to know what your thoughts are on the undercut?

Inspired: Cassie's Edgy Take on Crochet

CasaSugar — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 12:00:07 -0700

Singer Cassie rocked an edgy, punk crochet look at the BET Awards last night. I love how glam the lacy pattern looks in black, and Cassie's punk-inspired half-shaved head accentuates the singer's beauty while letting fans know that she's not to be trifled with. Inspired, I set out to find some similar looks.

Of course, my hero Tord Boontje would have a lamp that would fit Cassie to a T. His Artecnica Come Rain Come Shine Light ($4,950) has the same lacy, edgy glamour as Cassie's BET Awards ensemble.
