And I hear you, I'm getting better at it, but still need to remind myself to just say "thank you" too:-)<br />This week's post has already been written, but I'll save your link for the next one (in a fortnight). Thanks again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-35#post-1902460 Thu, 29 Mar 2018 14:18:09 +0000 citygirldc 1902460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's an interesting article by Refinery 29 on <a rel="nofollow">"I Gave 28 Women 28 Compliments In 28 Days &amp; Not One Was Accepted</a>".&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>I too have fallen into that trap of not accepting a compliment, possibly due to insecurities I may have had at that time and possibly still do. I realize now we are so hard on ourselves, that maybe we should take that compliment and "savor" it for what it's worth.&nbsp; Plus, I have to remind myself just to say "thank you" to the complimentor (is this even a word? ;)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-35#post-1902433 Thu, 29 Mar 2018 11:39:18 +0000 Inge 1902433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>L'Abeille - Thank you for being such a good sport! And let's make an exception, I shall use both links ;-)<br />The dystopian novel reimagined is genious, I would read the full-length book. Speaking of, I saw they mentioned "Station Eleven" in the intro, I really liked that and have the author's next book on my to-read list.<br />And now I'm very curious about Schitt's Creek.<br />Gigi - No, I don't think so. Looks like a great source of information, thanks!</p> <p>I'm closing the thread now. Thank you tons again for these excellent links!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-35#post-1902424 Thu, 29 Mar 2018 10:48:03 +0000 Katerina 1902424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Torontogirl, what an interesting post. Thought provoking. I think I am very much a uniform dresser, but not at all for the reasons mentioned in the article..... I might write a separate post on this subject. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-35#post-1902401 Thu, 29 Mar 2018 06:53:53 +0000 Gigi 1902401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Has anyone ever mentioned the Temptalia site (temptalia.com)? It is a beauty blog. The woman who writes it tries out makeup and writes a comprehensive review for each item she tries, giving concrete scores in different areas (pigmentation, longevity, etc.). She also lists dupes for items, so if you don't want to spend the big bucks for a high-end item, you can find something very similar from a lower-end brand. I have found the site very useful for when I am considering larger purchases, such as an eyeshadow palette. She also has several lists of favorite products for the year, which can be a helpful resource if you want to buy yourself (or someone else) a fun gift and aren't sure what to get. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-35#post-1902371 Wed, 28 Mar 2018 23:53:16 +0000 L'Abeille 1902371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know I just get one but I found this about the style in Schitt's Creek TV show.

You are always welcome to start your own threads, and if you'd like me to include a link in the bi-weekly Link Love posts on the blog, you can always add them to the threads I start in the forum on Mondays (twice a month). I saw your thread with the reference sites and will include them in the blog post this Thursday, thank you.</p> <p>La Pedestrienne - How very interesting!</p> <p>L'Abeille: Thank you! We used that link in a post in February, but I really enjoyed the article:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/2018/02/15/link-love-olympic-figure-skating-costumes/">https://youlookfab.com/2018/02.....-costumes/</a></p> <p>torontogirl - The author makes a lot of good points, I was nodding along!
