See by Chloe Embroidered Denim Short: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 08:00:22 -0700

There's only a certain time in the year when you can get away with wearing short shorts; now is the time. These See by Chloe Embroidered Denim Short ($410) offer a fun twist to the classic cut-off but at that expensive price, I'm hoping everything is hand stitched. Do you love these shorts or are they a rip-off?

Trend Alert: Denim Short Shorts

FabSugar — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 08:00:22 -0700

As the weather gets warmer, look to denim short shorts to cool off - and show off - those marvelous gams. Denim shorts have made yet another comeback this Spring with a variety of styles - not all reminiscent of Suzanne Somer's days in Three's Company. Dress them up with some fierce heels or downplay those sexy stems with a pair of flat sandals. Oh, and don't forget to strut like the D&G diva to my left.

The Look For Less: Helmut Lang Long Denim Boyfriend Shorts

FabSugar — Mon, 11 May 2009 01:00:22 -0700

You probably already have denim shorts, but do you have boyfriend shorts? They don't necessarily need to be your boyfriend's shorts, but they have to be a bit baggy, long, and cuffed. These Helmut Lang Long Denim Boyfriend Shorts ($210) are the perfect color and fit, but they're way too pricey for a trend that may fade before the denim itself.

We can always count on Express to bring us the latest trends at affordable prices. These Express Denim Boyfriend Shorts ($50) are totally current and won't kill your credit card. They're not as baggy as the Helmut Lang version, so I would consider getting them a size bigger for a loose, relaxed fit. And when you're ready to rock your daisy dukes again, you won't feel so bad considering the manageable price tag.

Super-short shorts are always a festival wardrobe staple. Last year, Alexa Chung and Portia Freeman rocked the look and Kate Moss is a big fan of hers! Yesterday it was revealed that 30% of female festival goers invest in a new wardrobe for the event, despite all the mud! Here are some of the best denim shorts currently available...and don't forget your wellies!

Trend Alert: Studded Shorts

FabSugar — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 06:50:22 -0700

We all own a pair of denim cutoffs, but what about studded shorts? Like studly vests, they add a unique rocker-girl vibe to your overall look and are a quick and simple DIY. Personally, I refuse to pay top dollar for such a fleeting yet cute trend. That's why I headed to my local fabric shop for a pack of studs and a glue gun. $6 and 20 minutes later, presto chango - studded shorts!

Trend Alert: Itty-Bitty Jean Shorts

FabSugar — Thu, 10 May 2007 11:30:33 -0700

We have been trying to convince you that shorts are an of-the-now option to expose your stems this season. The itty-bitty jean short is actually quite a classic - if you consider the siren who brought the item to fame: Daisy Duke. Now, I would call these Daisy Dukes but these itty-bitties are not necessarily butt cheek flaunters. Young Hollywood has chosen to wear these with tunics or long tees that just graze the hem of the short creating the illusion of wearing a very short dress - but then you have the safety of coverage underneath, albeit itty bitty. Lindsay, Nicole, Mischa, and myself are all fans - are you?

Fab Redux: Not So Short Shorts

FabSugar — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 14:00:22 -0700

Shorts had some really good years during the '70s. The Fab fave decade also bared a lot of skin. One of my mottos is if you've got it, and many of you have got the gams, flaunt them. If you aren't comfortable in a mini skirt or short shorts, consider these Vintage Denim High Waisted Shorts ($24). The waist is 28, and on that topic: the high waist is just right. The little dots are adorable and you can jazz these up or down.

Celeb Style: Rachel Bilson

FabSugar — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 11:00:22 -0700

Rachel Bilson soaked in the warm SoCal air yesterday looking cunningly cool in denim shorts and a top. It may not look like anything special at first glance, but notice how the actress pumped up the style factor by pairing her shorts with a silky top as opposed to the per-usual tee. A brown belt and green Chanel bag injected additional refinement, while ivory Cynthia Vincent rope sandals honed Rachel's bohemian vibe.
