Fab Covers: Rachel Weisz for Vogue Living

FabSugarUK — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 04:00:18 -0700

Normally, I would not feature Vogue Living on Fab, we leave that to CasaSugar but when it features Rachel Weisz in a purple Vera Wang dress how could we not?! The shoot sees Oscar winning Weisz posing in her perfect room which seems to channel classic glamour, reflected perfectly in Weisz's style. I actually prefer the cover to US Vogue, which do you prefer?

Today is the release date of Vogue Living: Houses, Gardens, People, a book written by Vogue Editor Hamish Bowles draws on stories that have appeared in the pages of Vogue and Vogue Living over the past two decades, along with never-before-published images.

I don't know about you, but I'm already halfway to the bookstore to pick up my long-awaited copy.

Blake Strikes a Pose For Vogue

PopSugar — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 11:00:57 -0800

Blake Lively worked the old Hollywood look as the cover girl for Vogue's February issue. She's no stranger to designer clothes and perfect hair and makeup thanks to Serena van der Woodsen, but scoring this cover is a pretty big honor for the young actress. In the article she talks about fashion and why audiences love Gossip Girl. Here are highlights:

On how the show ignores the economic recession:: "We live in an alternate universe on the show; it's a heightened reality, so I don't think the writers would work that in. They created a show that people can watch after a long day and not have to stress and worry and feel the burdens of real life. It's just an escape, watching these sparkly lives and just escaping into this other world for an hour."
On the clothes: "The fashion is just unbelievable. You can watch our show on mute and be entertained. Just being here, walking around, you pick it up really quickly. In New York, you put on skinny jeans and riding boots and a leather coat and handbag, and you take on that posture and character. It becomes very natural."
On putting her personal touches on Serena's wardrobe: "The more they work with me and see my style, and the more I learn about fashion, the more input I have. It's more collaborative now than it was in the beginning because then I had no idea what I was doing."

While Serena's life was more focused on her boyfriend and Internet gossip than her fabulous wardrobe on last night's episode, we always love coveting the amazing ensembles we see on the show week after week.

Behind The Seams: Model.Live Launch Party

FabSugar — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 04:00:08 -0700

Remember Madeline, Austria, and Cato from Vogue's new modeling reality show, Model.Live? The online show is now four episodes in, but last night at the Bowery Hotel in NYC, Vogue.TV and IMG hosted a celebration for the launch. Of course, the models and now-reality-starlets showed up looking gorgeous in different variations of LBDs. Cato (right) is my favorite; who's yours?

Actress Becki Newton was also there, as were famous models Jacquetta Wheeler, Kristy Hume, Elettra Rossellini Wiedemann, and socialite Olivia Palermo. As you can imagine, there was lots of posing, smiling, and socializing. Sounds like my kind of party.

FABTV: A Preview of Model.Live

FabSugar — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 17:40:29 -0700

A new day-in-the-life-of-a-model show is on the horizon: Model.Live is debuting tomorrow night on Vogue.tv. We briefly mentioned it before, and here is another preview.

This show is different from the rest in that it's online and interactive - fans will be able to keep up with the daily happenings and communicate with the show's stars Cato, Madeline, and Austria via bebo.com. And this is cool: you'll be able to shop the models' clothes as they go from go-see, to agency, to the runway, and all the sidewalks in between. Ultimately, you can witness what it takes for a green model to be successful. All three gals have vastly different looks; my interest goes to Dominican Republic-born Austria, the youngest (and prettiest!). Check out the preview - mostly agents sitting around a table strategizing about the three hopefuls - and as of Aug. 22, new episodes will be broadcast every Friday for 12 weeks.

On Our Radar: Vogue's Online Reality Modeling Show

FabSugar — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 04:00:22 -0700

America's Next Top Model just got some more competition. Vogue has teamed up with IMG's fashion and media divisions to produce an online reality modeling show titled Model.Live. Essentially, the show follows three models as they attend casting calls, strut the runways, and run through airports headed to New York, London, Milan, and Paris fashion weeks. The one with short hair, Madeline, looks like a cross between Agyness Deyn and Irina Lazareanu. The first of 12 eight-minute episodes will air August 19, here's a snippet of what's to come.

Chace and Taylor Film While Ed and Jessica Stay in Fashion

PopSugar — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 11:30:07 -0800

The cast of Gossip Girl spread out all over NYC yesterday. Taylor Momsen was dressed up to film alongside Chace Crawford, who was back on set after turning out to support Blake Lively at a screening of The Private Lives of Pippa Lee over the weekend. It was Ed Westwick's turn to get fancy last night, when he joined girlfriend Jessica Szohr at the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Awards. The ceremony tends to bring out fashion's heavy hitters, and Ed and Jess spent their evening celebrating Sophie Theallet's win among models and designers. Meanwhile, last night's WTF moment-filled episode featured the Lady Gaga cameo you were looking forward to, as well the usual gorgeous interiors, beauty, and fashion.

Come Fab Finding With Me: Glove Me

FabSugar — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 14:00:22 -0800

I'm in desperate need of a new pair of cozy gloves (or two!). I don't live in snow, but my hands still manage to freeze every morning. I'm not too picky about style - I'd rather see where your imagination takes you. But I will say, there's nothing more sexy than a buttery leather glove that smothers the hands. Oh, and I don't want anything super sporty or ridiculously expensive.

I'll start you off with this Vogue Russia editorial with Masha Novoselova; use it as inspiration.

Let's go Fab Finding. Be sure to come back and tell me your Fab Finds are up, or just tag your Fab Finds with Fab Gloves. Now, you can build outfits by creating your very own widget of clothing items. We have everything you need to build outfits, and you can use your Fab Find bookmarks, too. This is an even better way to put together an entire outfit when completing your Fab Finding missions. Learn what a Fab Find is and how to make one. And here's a detailed explanation of bookmarks from GeekSugar.
