I don’t know if it’s because I’m sleep-deprived or because I’m still in decorating mode but boudoir bedrooms are top of mind. I ran across some pictures lately that I thought I’d share for the girly girls out there.
This would be a fun teen girl’s room, don’t you think?
This post is about one dress and one purse, both frugal and fab.
I noticed after purchasing my work tote at a Korean boutique that it was a replica of a Balenciaga tote that Olivia Palermo carries. The Balenciaga bag looks like this.
I love Olivia Palermo’s style so it’s not surprising I was drawn to a similar bag. Below are my outfit posts with a replica bag that I didn’t even realize was a replica.
In the above picture I’m wearing:
I loved how this polka dotted dress had such a vintage feel. I saw it on a mannequin at H&M, immediately did a bee-line towards the dress and charged the $50 faster than you could say “frugal and fab.” I was so excited to start styling it that I styled the two outfits pictured above as soon as I returned home. I can imagine also wearing it with brown boots and belt. It’s a great transition dress that works at the workplace as well as outside of it. What do you think?
If you like eye candy, then you will love the scene outside of NYC’s fashion week at Lincoln Center this year. There are so many beautiful fashionistas walking their own catwalk right outside the tents. If you haven’t made it out there or don’t live in the NY area, don’t fret ‘cuz FabGab has got her FabCam!
I caught these two leather-clad ladies on their way into the tents. Leather is paired with everything this fall – dresses, skirts, jeans, winter shorts…
I love how this fashionista paired masculine with feminine pieces. Her boyfriend blazer contradicts the girliness of her floral mini-dress and compliments her booties. Note how she lets her ankle socks peek out of her booties – socks are a key focal point this fall.
This lady’s gorgeous mane caught my eye and that’s when I noticed her cute bow-cinched dress. You’ve got to love a classic black/white pairing. I write about it all the time in my blog.
Though the fashionista pictured below is wearing neutrals, she still manages to stand out with her stylish military jacket, edgy chain accessories and frilly lace skirt. love her shoes..
Elin Nordergren, Tiger Wood’s scorned wife seems to have a lookalike at fashion week. This much more fashionable blonde rocks out in a jumper and bootie and shows she’s confident when taking fashion risks.
Speaking of lookalikes, check out this Blake Lively lookalike, spotted outside Lincoln Center. Do those gorgeous blond wavy locks , oval face shape and smile not remind you of the Gossip Girl cutie? People say all Asians look alike. Hm I’m beginning to wonder if I could say something similar here. haha
She’s wearing the latest craze in cargo pants -skinny military green versions. If you have ever wondered what to wear with them, here’s your inspiration.
I tend to gravitate towards being matchy matchy with my purse and shoes. But I see fashionistas like the leather and lace one pictured below and am reminded that you can rock a look without having the matching purse and shoe.
I almost bought a pair of booties like the black leather cutout ones shown on the below fashion week guest. She must be a New York-er, just look at all that black

I loved this fashionista’s mix of masculine and feminine. The outfit wouldn’t have been the same without the handsome hat.
With flower in hair, ruffles on shirt and killer nude heels, this fashionista works her best model scowl.
Shorts are in. This girl shows how to dress them up.
Military goes upscale thanks to this lovely blonde inside the tents.
I love how this fashionista effortlessly pairs a lacy black cardi with her nude dress, combining a couple key trends.
I love pairing leather jackets with dresses. This fashionista does it right by pairing a tight-fitting leather jacket (very on trend) with a cool modern strapless dress and great leather accessories.
This outfit would be perfect for work. elegant dress, lady bag + statement necklace. Love it!
This monochromatic look works because of the variation in texture and luxe accessories. Kudos to this fashionista for being both glamorous and age-appropriate.
Only a model could get away with such a short, choppy boy’s hairdo. It was the dress though that really caught my eye – so much so that I didn’t even notice that I was photographing the famous Veronica Webb until after I shot her!
Stay tuned for more FabCam updates through the rest of the week!
The fashionistas were out in full force. New venue, great weather, Spring 2011 fashion week..what else would you expect?
See below for some of my favorite groupings. If you’re one of the lucky fashionistas featured here, please share with the world the details of your outfit and a little bit about yourself. And please post this blog entry link into your blog, FB and/or twitter.
I thought the young twosome below was adorable. I wish I was this strikingly put together and stylish at their ripe young age!
These hipsters look like they came straight from the Lower East Side .
I imagine that the below threesome work together at a top fashion magazine. They are all so supremely stylish. Mental note to self, aim to look this good when I reach the age of the woman in the middle!
The two lovely ladies below are NYC stylists
The above girls perfectly exemplify the “greige” trend that I wrote about earlier.
The above group had gotten stopped in their tracks so many times by photographers that by the time they got to me, they were visibly perturbed. Thankfully, they still stopped for a quick photo. Oh, the perils of being so striking.
The above photo was taken post-fashion show at the Time Warner Building where Jose Duran showed his line at the Samsung Experience. I found their look so interesting, head-to-toe.
Have any favorites? Is anyone else as inspired as I am?
My next FabCam posting will be a round-up of NY fashionistas from fashion week standing solo so standby!
I was dead tired after dealing with Fashion’s Night Out and not getting enough beauty rest before a long day at fashion week but miraculously, the minute I walked into the Vivianne Tam fashion show, saw the wall of photographers, the seemingly mile-long white runway and the scene a buzzing with fashionistas from around the world it was like an immediate caffeine kick. I was beyond energized. When one of my friends surprisingly called out my name from the runway’s sidelines, I thought I would burst from excitement.
As soon as the lights dimmed and Denise Richards who sat across from me faded from my eyes and the music started pumping, so did my heart. Here are pics of some of the celebs in attendance. photo credit: Getty Images
And here’s a clip of what I saw.
I’m loving the video wall next to the runway which allows for close-ups of the clothes as they come towards you down the runway.
The location at Lincoln Center is simply beautiful and the new tent setup being larger, allows for a garden lounge and feels less congested than ever. I took lots of photos of the fabulous fashionistas out and about and will post them tomorrow. For now, here’s a picture of me at the new 2010 September fashion week step and repeat.
Apparently I was dressed very classic, a la Banana Republic ‘cuz Banana Republic’s reps came over to me and asked to shoot me and my outfit. 
I’m now being considered for their next ad campaign where they’re featuring real-life fashionistas in their clothes i.e. non-models/real people. How cool would that be?
I’ve been collecting images ever since starting this blog – images that inspire me, images that indulge me and images that ARE me.
Every so often, I browse through my little online library and collect them into thematic collages. Here’s my latest. I’m calling it the black and white wedding. For those of us who love damasks, this is a perfect way to bring black, white and a flash of pink into a damask black and white wedding. Every black and white decor needs another accent color, else the classic black white pairing risks looking bland and cold.
Adding a printed fabric to the stem of a wedding bouquet is a thoughtful way to bring in a wedding theme while also creating a standout bouquet. I’d like to see this one outlined with black ostrich feathers for an even more dramatic look. I love how the elegant black and white cake has layers of different sizes, patterns and a simple modern ball like structure as the cake topper – very graphic. And every event planner should experiment with adding logos, themes and patterns to their ice bar. It immediately creates a memorable visual focus and helps tie any event decor together. And don’t you love the unexpected flower girl dress? Instead of coming out in all white, why not use a printed girly ruffle dress in the theme of your wedding? I’d love to see this girl walk down the aisle carrying a pink teddy bear in a black basket with a pink flower in her hair. I can see it now….
