From Bombay, With Love
The bangles and bracelets of Bombay Fashions can add an exotically-chic touch to any wardrobe. Their Indian inspired (Bombay Fashions) and Contemporary (Bella Collection) accessories lines have been featured in magazines from O to Women’s World, Seventeen to Essence and Elle to InStyle. With a plethora of Bollywood-worthy colorful choices, that come in stacked or single designs, the most neutral closet can get a pop of magenta, turquoise, peach or any number of beautiful hues. Adding these pieces to an outfit can give a “world-traveled” look that is incredibly classy and trendy! Great for gifts, orders take about three to four days to ship in the states. Take a cue from celebrities like Kim Kardashian, Rihanna and Keri Hilson. With a huge selection (and this is just the bracelets & bangles!!) the possibilities, with Bombay Fashions, are endless!!

October Wrap-Up: Pink Picks
With October coming to an end, The Fab Savvy team wanted to wrap up the month by highlighting some of our favorite Breast Cancer Awareness supporting items.
Number 3 ~ Clinique: Great Lips Great Cause
If you have not snagged one of these already, you may be too late. This key ring set includes two cute charms and three pampering lip formulas from Clinique. For just $16, the set was a popular buy at Macy’s, Bloomingdale’s and online. A portion of the proceeds benefit the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
Number 2 ~ Michael Kors: Key To The Cure Tee
Michael Kors, for Saks Fifth Avenue, designed a wonderful, wearable tee. Its everything we have come to depend on MK to be; cute but easily added to our wardrobe rotation. This would look great under a blazer. Proceeds help benefit local breast cancer charities.
Number 1 ~ Kara Ross for Ann Taylor Loft: Kara Ross Breast Cancer Awareness Bracelet
Our Favorite October pick is this bracelet by Kara Ross. The piece is one of three from three great designers approached by Ann Taylor to create items specifically to raise research funds. $5 from each purchase goes toward the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
Define Your Style In 2010 ~ Part 1
The most important aspect of your own personal style is, of course, YOU! In light of that, Fab Savvy wants to help you define your style so that it reflects your personality. After all, isn’t that the whole point? Hopefully this series of tips can help 2010 be your most fashionably personalized year yet.
Part 1 – Online Resources
Many people limit themselves by failing to use the vastness of the internet to their advantage when it comes to shopping. Now don’t get me wrong, I like mall & boutique hopping quite a bit. Cyberspace howevever, can often offer a helping hand.
Shopbob.com, for instance, gives you the option of shopping by style. You can choose from categories like Classic, Bohemian, Cassual Chic, and more.
Shopbop is also a good resource for shopping by designers. And remember that even if you don’t purchase online, browsing sites can give you an idea of what you want your personal style to include. This can help you know what to look for when you shop in person and help you avoid buying pieces you won’t actually wear.
StyleFeeder.com is another useful site. This service allows you to search for everything from jewelry to jeans that spark your interest. Once you have picked a few items, Style Feeder makes suggestions of similar pieces you may like. The more you pick, the more customized your suggestions become. You can also add your cool personal StyleFeeder button to your website, blog, or Facebook page.
If you aren’t yet hip to Etsy, you should be. This site gives you access to an endless roster of designers of all kinds, from diamond jewelry to funky scarves and every handmade item in between. Often, indie or new designers will have the next best thing on Etsy, for last years prices.

SILVER Lining
seventynine47
Jewelry Designer Vicente Agor’s recently launched fine silver line is on tour. The collection, dubbed seventynine47, will grace Houston May 1st and 2nd at a Trunk Show held at the Cotton Club. Agor, who is known for his pieces in 18 karat gold, invokes fine silver as a medium in this new collection. seventynine47 is also said to include white sapphires as opposed to diamonds (which were used in his signature line). Little touches of gold, and Agor’s usual artistic insight, give the new jewelry a luxurious air while the silver and sapphire combinations make these items relatively more affordable. Agor’s entire 18 karat gold collection, as well as some of his Fall/Winter ‘09 collection, will accompany the new seventynine47 pieces in
seventynine47
Houston and at a few similar shows across the country. The San Francisco based designer is sure to please with this new direction, as he has in the past. The former investment executive has received many an accolade since entering the jewelry arena. His works have since gained international buzz. The Trunk Show in Houston is free to attend and will take place between 10:00 am and 6:00 pm. Also featured will be pieces by designer Amy Y of Amy Y Jewelry. And as for the collections name, Vicente credits the periodic table for inspiration. “The numbers 79 and 47 are the atomic numbers for gold and silver respectively”, he says. FabSavvy thinks its PURE Genius.
