A long while ago, I think I also posted an article about how retailers use scents and perfume in the same way.</div><div>Like the Season - It's eye-opening, isn't it.</div><div>Jaime - Yes, I've noticed that too. They are on a roll. (Also: It's always surprised me to see a "bob" referred to as "short hair";-)</div><div>Krish - Yes! I've seen pics of them on Pinterest and in street style photography before.</div><div>kkards - How interesting! I've never really thought of it like that.</div><div>Thanks so much for bumping, Joy!</div><div>Gigi - I see there are several videos in this series, saving them to watch them all.

I found it interesting to see how shapeless pieces could be combined to create structure, before later fashion designs used curved seams to correspond to the shape of the body. I also found it interesting to note where embellishment could be employed and how practical elements such as pockets were incorporated. For those of us bemoaning the lack of pockets on women's garments in the present, maybe we need to go back to the medieval concept of cloth pockets tied onto a belt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-39#post-1921595 Wed, 23 May 2018 05:06:19 +0000 Anonymous 1921595@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bump </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-39#post-1921467 Tue, 22 May 2018 16:54:04 +0000 kkards 1921467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to post the same NYTimes article that&nbsp;Like the Season did. very thought provoking<b></b><u>. </u><u><i>“</i></u><a href="https://www.businessoffashion.com/community/voices/discussions/how-can-fashion-develop-more-women-leaders/less-female-fashion-designers-more-male-designers" rel="nofollow"><u><i>only 14 percent</i></u></a><u><i> of major brands are run by a female executive” ....</i></u></p> <p><em><u></u></em></p> <p>I also wanted to pass this opinion piece along, as we often talk about how to accept a compliment, I think the writer nicely lays out that here in the US,&nbsp;often a compliment isn't just a compliment, but really its the opening line in a person to person conversation</p> <p><a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/17/opinion/sunday/how-accept-compliment.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.nytimes.com/2018/0.....iment.html</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-39#post-1921443 Tue, 22 May 2018 15:19:10 +0000 krishnidoux 1921443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bon and Pon : too cute!

I had no idea how serious they were about programming music to encourage you to buy or to discourage the "wrong" (too old) people to stay out. To the point of having full time positions dedicated to exactly that. Was interested in how the same chain used different tempo music depending on whether they thought the neighborhood shoppers wanted pepping up or soothing down. <br /></div><div><br /></div><div><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.racked.com/2018/4/25/17271928/retail-music-staffers">https://www.racked.com/2018/4/.....c-staffers</a><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-bi-weekly-links-here-39#post-1921099 Mon, 21 May 2018 12:05:43 +0000 Inge 1921099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Have you come across an interesting style-related link, then do post it below and let us know why you would like to share it.<br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Kari and L'Abeille, I've saved the wonderful links you provided last week and will use them in this week's Link Love post.
