Links à la Mode

Sense and Sensibility

It’s all about sensibility here. How do you thrift successfully? Style Symmetry will let you know. How do you dress for an fashion job interview? 39thandbroadway will show you the way (no pantsuits!) reLYME investigates feminine studs, and The Coveted talks to elegant punks. Dramatis Personae keeps it all in (corsets). There’s the full version of Links á la Mode here in the forums… there’s a lot of great posts there too.

From now on, we will select the best 20 links posted in the Links à la Mode thread as decided by a guest editor.

New Blog, New Beginning

I finally made it!

I left Livejournal ...

Don't get me wrong, LJ and I had the best of times and I really love it ... its just not designed to be a daily fashion what I was wearing blog!

So here I am, after ages of getting used to and building around (not that its so difficult or that the things I accomplished are sooo special ... I am just incapable to adjust to new things ;))

And I will do my best to really have a daily post and not neglect  this blog like the LJ one :)
