FabSugar — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 05:50:22 -0800

Oh, Katy, what would the entertainment world be without you and your over-the-top performance outfits? It would be bleak. Thankfully we don't have to experience Bleaktown because Ms. Perry delivers nonstop glitz and glitter. From fruits to sushi, oversize bows to dice, this is one performer who dresses like a true show(wo)man. Let's stop gabbing and start gazing at the singer's looks from awards shows and concerts, shall we?

Would You Be Interested in Leona Lewis for Stella McCartney?

FabSugarUK — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 00:00:44 -0800

Leona Lewis is a strict vegetarian and has been rumoured to be creating her own eco fashion line many times. This week the gossip is more specific as it is reported that she has been in talks with Stella McCartney. The two have similar principles as Leona once spoke about how she gave away a Burberry handbag because it was made from leather. She also turned down £1 million to open the Harrods sale last year because the store sells fur. Leona is particularly interested in designing shoes and handbags. If these two Brits collaborated, would you be interested in the range?

Ungaro CEO Defends Lindsay

FabSugarUK — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 06:50:08 -0800

Lindsay Lohan's career at Ungaro got off to a rocky start when her first catwalk collection received bad reviews. Emanuel Ungaro himself even spoke out against the celebrity designer saying the "collaboration was a disaster". The fashion world was in shock yesterday when Lindsay was confirmed to be remaining as the artistic advisor.

The CEO of Ungaro Mounir Moufarrige has since defended his decision explaining, "Fashion is controversial, and you need some novelties and you need to test some new ideas," adding that he is happy with his "walking, talking advertisement".

Although sales have been slow and both Net-a-Porter and Neiman Marcus have dropped the label for the Spring season, Moufarrige is not phased. He said, "There is more buzz definitely but we are in a recession. The criticism was harsh. I am sure we can do better in the collection to be honest but I think it was harsh." Do you think the criticism was unfair and that Lindsay should be allowed a second chance?

John Continues to Share All the Details

PopSugar — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 15:30:00 -0800

John Mayer was proud to show off his colorful tattoo sleeve on the December cover of Details. He's out and about talking about his latest album, Battle Studies, but in typical Mayer fashion John didn't only speak about business. Just like in his recent interview with the New York Times, John quickly got candid about his personal life. Here's more:

On his relationships with Hollywood's leading ladies: "You just never know who’s going to come into your life. To my mind, the only thing sicker than saying, 'Wow, you’re a famous person and it would do a lot for my career to go out with you,' is to say, 'Wow, you’re a famous person and I like you and all, but I can’t do that to my career.' I don’t think either of those is a good option."
On his unexpected collaboration with country star Taylor Swift: "I don’t know if you know, but I’m not exactly Bob Dylan - I’m already a pop musician . . . I want to reach as many people as possible."
His music vs. his celebrity persona: "Sometimes I feel like I do two things for a living. I make records and I talk to people. The record is much, much better than any interview I can give - you’ll walk away from the record liking me a hell of a lot more than you would walking away from an interview."

For a mere $25, you can have your own collection of gaming controllers that span decades - from Super NES to PS3 to Sega - so there's sure to be one that satisfies your inner gaming goddess. Sold as a set of seven, the acrylic ornaments come in four different colors, but without your string or hooks, so you'll have to fashion your own way of getting them on your tree.

Don't celebrate with a Douglas Fir? I've already thought of several different ways to incorporate these into my everyday life after the holidays. Window ornaments, wall art, even sealed into the top of a DIY outdoor table. See? I bet you can come up with a few on your own.

Victoria Smith's Go-To Holiday Gift Ideas

CasaSugar — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 10:00:54 -0800

I do have a few tricks up my sleeve when it comes to holiday gifts, but I'm always impressed with what my design-savvy friends give each year. So, I decided to ask some interior design "tastemakers" for their favorite go-to presents. From designers and stylists to bloggers and shop-owners, some of the brightest stars in the design world have shared their favorite holiday gift ideas with me.

To kick things off, San Francisco-based Victoria Smith of the always-inspiring blog sfgirlbybay has shared her go-to gift ideas. But, she admits she's not a huge fan of the commercial side of Christmas: "I love the white twinkling lights, and the parties and dinner gatherings with friends - the celebrations. I do love that part."

On gifts for friends: "Most of my friends and I for years have agreed to always make our gifts for each other. Even when they sometimes don't come out quite as well as you had envisioned, we give them anyway, and just have a good laugh. From homemade pillow cases, to miniature snow domes made from baby food jars, and knit scarves, we've gone through some good gifts and some good laughs."

Happy Birthday Chloë!

FabSugar — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 16:00:22 -0800

Chloë Sevigny has been a style risk taker from day one. The proof is in the pictures. In honor of her birthday today - congrats, girl! - let's take a trip down red-carpet lane to admire this fearless, fashion-forward woman. Since '98, Chloë's style has not changed that drastically. She has always favored off-kilter, yet totally sexy pieces. Black is a staple, but she doesn't turn her back on bold colors. Yellow, fuchsia, orange, purple - they're all part of her closet. She never shies away from sheer and sliced, but also rocks conservative ensembles like second skin. And, get this, she wore an oversized bow headband back when whimsical wasn't the word. Lastly, she's got some killer legs. A true fashion chameleon, we heart you, Chloë.
