New Terra Chips: Stripes & Blues

FitSugar — Tue, 25 Sep 2007 02:30:00 PDT

How very patriotic of Terra to introduce a red, white, and blue chip medley they call Stripes and Blues. They are much healthier than the Lays chips I ate as a kid since they are made with 3 kinds of harvested veggies, not just your average potato. The red chips are made from sweet potatoes, the blue chips are made from blue potatoes, and the striped chips are striped beets.

These Stripes & Blues chips take my favorite Sweets & Beets to an entirely new visual level. I love that they're made with no trans fat or cholesterol, and contain hardly any saturated fat (the kind that is bad for your heart). Plus these chips have a much zestier flavor so they don't need a whole lot of sodium.

To check out the nutritional info and see what these delectable chips really look like,

Serving Size	1 oz (about 14 chips)
Calories	140
Total Fat	8g
Saturated Fat	.5g
Cholesterol	0mg
Sodium	110mg
Carbs	16g
Fiber	2g
Sugar	5g
Protein	2g
Ingredients	A seasonal mix of root vegetables (sweet potato, blue potato, beets), canola oil and/or safflower oil and/or sunflower oil, beet juice concentrate, sea salt.

Well I'm just amazed that these chips are actually as pretty as the photo on the outside of the bag, plus I can actually pronounce all the ingredients!

With only 110mg of sodium, these still taste salty and definitely satisfied my craving. Plus they have 2g of fiber (you can aways use more), 2g of protein, and 4% of your daily iron needs (I know it's not much, but every little bit counts).

I love that there are 3 different chips in this bag, so your taste buds never get bored. I definitely recommend looking for these chips in a health food store near you, or in the health food section of your grocery store.

Fit's Tip: Just remember, even though these chips are healthier than potato chips, they are still chips! So keep your portions under control.

It's no secret that we adore Olivia Palermo's effortlessly polished style, and last night she showed off a look that is perfect for a hot Summer night. She attended the store opening of Fabergé's flagship store in NYC, and showed us how to elevate a stripe tee with suiting. Of course with Olivia, it's all about awesome, unexpected accessories. She rounded out her look with satin blue Manolo Blahniks and a Faberge silver chain necklace. On Allison McNamara: American Apparel top, Target belt.

Memorial Day cocktail party in your weekend plans? Olivia Palermo gave summery stripes a sophisticated spin just in time for your seasonal party schedule while celebrating Fabergé's NYC store opening last night. We love that she played it casually chic, adding evening shorts and a white tuxedo blazer to her basic tee. As always, Olivia perfected her style with attention to detail - her embellished blue Manolos offset the colors in her top and lent just the right touch of luxe. To finish, it's just a sleek black patent clutch and the style setter's signature statement jewels. Feeling inspired?

Elka Karl — Fri, 18 May 2012 06:00:47 PDT

We recently swung by the Fall press previews for Crate & Barrel, CB2, and Land of Nod, and were utterly delighted by the new Fall lines. Most of these pieces won't be available until July, so you're getting an exclusive peek at what to expect from these companies in the coming months - make sure to bookmark your favorites so you can look for them online or in-store after July. Here are some quick notes on each collection:

Crate & Barrel: Gorgeous Marimekko fabrics, natural woods, plaid and stripe upholstery, organic, handmade-looking tableware, pops of blue, and beautiful pendant lamps are some of the highlights for us.
CB2: A fun, urban vibe, big pops of color, especially yellow, experimentation with pattern (see the red gingham lounge chair and various rugs), and natural woods.
Land of Nod: This kids' retailer provides major inspiration for weddings or outdoor party decor thanks to the lanterns, garlands, string lights, and textiles. We're also loving the throw pillow, pendants, Sante Fe-style rugs, wall decor, and more.

Look of the Day: Parisian Classic

Marisa Tom — Mon, 14 May 2012 03:00:32 PDT

You don't have to be in Paris to look just as chic as one of its locals. Case in point: this Fab reader Postgradchic channeled a totally classic French-girl look with the help of a tailored topper, a slick t-shirt, and cream-hued pointy-toe pumps. She wore a striped black-and-white tee with cuffed blue jeans, then topped the outfit with a Spring-perfect trench coat. Her accessories - a brown belt, chic fedora, neutral-toned pumps, and brown tote - rounded out the ensemble with an effortlessly stylish touch.

Congrats Postgradchic!

Prince William and Kate Middleton continued their busy week with a royal appearance at the Imperial War Museum in London today. They attended a reception to launch the museum foundation's First World War Galleries with Kate donning a gray Amanda Wakeley dress for the occasion. It was Kate and Will's second outing of the day after honoring the Scott-Amundsen Centenary Race to the South Pole at another reception this morning. Kate wore a blue Rebecca Taylor look for the occasion, while Will suited up with a striped tie. The couple, who will celebrate their first wedding anniversary on Sunday, kicked off the string of events yesterday when they stepped out for the movie premiere of African Cats.

Look of the Day: Crisp Sailor

FabSugar — Mon, 23 Apr 2012 03:00:53 PDT

Looking to channel a preppier vibe this week? Fab reader In Foodie Fashion Ana took a totally cool, crisp stance on nautical stripes and we're dying to re-create the minimalist look. She paired a striped blue-and-white top with tailored, cuffed trousers; then, she belted the ensemble with a nude-toned belt. To polish it off, she wore cream loafers, doubled up on necklaces, donned a striking silver cuff, and toted a bright red shoulder bag.

Congrats In Foodie Fashion Ana!

Look of the Day: Metallic Topper

FabSugar — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 03:00:15 PDT

Fab reader Brunetteblogging amped up a cute striped skirt by pairing it with a slick metallic sweater. The cool contrast of a gilded hue against a wide nautical-inspired pattern offered up a sophisticated take on preppy springtime style. Dressing to a chillier climate, she added navy blue tights, two-tone laceups, and a brown textured tote, which provided a more classic accent to the gold topper statement.

Congrats Brunetteblogging!

Look of the Day: Anorak Girl

FabSugar — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 03:00:11 PDT

In need of a little daytime dressing inspiration? Look no further than Fab reader Simmysashi. She paired our favorite Spring piece of the moment - the anorak - with pretty stripes and flats. We love the juxtaposition of a khaki green topper against a preppier nautical-striped dress, with warm brown flats offering up a neutral-toned contrast to the mix. To finish off the look, she tied a soft blue handkerchief scarf around her neck and toted a blush-hued satchel.

Congrats Simmysashi!
