Home sweet home.
While the holidays are prime time for sequined wear, you can still wear your shimmering tops, bottoms, and little dresses right now, as long as you stick to a few strategic style guidelines. The key to working Summer sequins is to make it look casual and nonchalant. Forget ultra-tight silhouettes and think breezy, not clingy. To help show you how, we've garnered fashionable examples from Joy Read more
Kate Moss doesn't usually stray away from her sleek modus operandi, but when she does, it's just as amazing. While out celebrating her bro's birthday in London, the Super donned a pair of funky lace-up jeans. It's very Guns N' Roses circa '90, and I love how the lacing goes all the way up her legs. I suggest offsetting the old school vibe by pairing these pants with a decadent chubby — a la Read more
Vegas bachelorette parties are so passé. That's why I suggest a fresher destination to all future brides: Napa. Can't you imagine toasting yourself, or a close friend, in a winery surrounded by scrumptious food and barrels of delicious vino? Clubbing attire isn't required, but that doesn't mean you can't dress sexy. I asked you to put together a sassy outfit for such an occasion. Read more
Shake things up this season and swap our your skirts for some short stuff. Yes, I'm talking about shorts, but not just any kind. The latest crop boasts embellished, printed, and washed to perfection styles — I must have them all. For now, let me jump-start your inventory by giving away a pair of Blank Denim Cut-Off Stud Shorts ($69) for our next daily giveaway. Picture yourself Read more
On Fridays, I like to shake Celebrity Style up. Why not? I realize Lindsay's look at the opening of the Apple Lounge may be hit or miss, but I consider tasteful risk taking a hit. Her emerald green 3.1 Phillip Lim crop top complements her strawberry blond hair (which looks really good, btw), and she knows a pair of Yves Saint Laurent platform pumps will give her jean-short-wearing legs the proper Read more
For those of you hoping to get the look of a modern rustic kitchen, the Hudson English Reading Chair ($2,850) couldn't be more appropriate. The vintage leather chair from England with a blue and brown plaid wool cushion and nailhead trim is a perfect stand-in for the handsomely worn leather chair tossed with a velvet pillow in that kitchen. But the Hudson chair is also a Pandora's box of sorts: Read more
Maybe I'm just on a capiz pendant kick lately, but I'd have a hard time selling these sea shells by the shore. The Hudson Serena Drum Chandelier (inquire for price) is a natural capiz shell chandelier with brass detailing. Measuring 16.25" H x 26" D, it'll really light up your home. I'd love to see it hanging over a round, reclaimed wood dining table with shimmery white table linens. Forget a Read more
I had your home décor tastes in mind last week, so for the latest Casa Craving Challenge, I decided to see you how well you could instill your personal style into a room built around a piece that isn't everyone's style. I spotted a vintage Danish bench with preppy, rugby-esque blue stripes from Hudson, and challenged you to make it work with your aesthetic in one particular room of your Read more
Every Thursday on CasaSugar, I'll give you a decorating challenge and ask you to go Casa Craving for items that fit the look. (Here's a post explaining what a Casa Craving is and how to create one.) The latest Casa Craving Challenge is inspired by the thought that you the readers don't necessarily have the same home décor tastes as CasaSugar. So, this challenge will be training in how to Read more
