We actually mentioned it in Link Love quite a while back, it's an incredible site, isn't, it.<br /><span><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2012/02/23/link-love-from-ylf-members-27/">http://youlookfab.com/2012/02/.....embers-27/</a><br /></span><br />FlorenceFearne, amazing links too. We did Verily Magazine in October:<br /><span><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2013/10/17/link-love-wearing-the-trousers/">http://youlookfab.com/2013/10/.....-trousers/</a><br /></span>So I'll use the Brainscoop video in today's post.</p> <p>Thanks again all so much for the fantastic links. I'm closing the thread for this week, and will start a new thread on Monday 30 December (there won't be a Link Love post next week). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-109#post-1117758 Thu, 19 Dec 2013 01:35:36 +0000 FlorenceFearne 1117758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found Verily magazine (they have a pretty awesome policy on photoshop, or the lack thereof.)&nbsp;</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://verilymag.com/">http://verilymag.com/</a>&nbsp;</p> <p>And I also found The Brain Scoop, an awesome science-y Youtube channel hosted by a lady who addresses some of her concerns about sexism and internet bullying here:&nbsp;</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&amp;v=yRNt7ZLY0Kc&amp;list=UUkyfHZ6bY2TjqbJhiH8Y2QQ">http://www.youtube.com/watch?f.....bJhiH8Y2QQ</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-109#post-1117476 Wed, 18 Dec 2013 19:59:32 +0000 eternalvoyageur 1117476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the blog <a href="http://wearabout.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow">http://wearabout.wordpress.com/</a> which documents street style in India (especially the north-east part of the country). it's really unusual how runway photos are juxtaposed with photos of poor and homeless people, and sometimes the similarities are astounding. The outfits are often really fresh and creative to my eye, probably because in India a clothing item from the west is taken at face value, and stripped of all it's associations (it's place in fashion history, subculture, movies, style "rules", etc etc). I also love how western pieces are beautifully mixed with traditional pieces.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-109#post-1117467 Wed, 18 Dec 2013 19:29:56 +0000 Inge 1117467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, off to explore your links, ladies. The Fashion Historian rings a bell, La Belle, but I can't immediately find it in a past post. Will check more thoroughly to be sure, but it's worth mentioning again for sure. Thank you La Belle, Vildy and Shevia. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-109#post-1117253 Wed, 18 Dec 2013 14:55:00 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1117253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know&nbsp;how I found this link. &nbsp;If it was from a previous Link Love, then disregard &nbsp; But the most recent entry made me giggle - and think.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.thefashionhistorian.com/">http://www.thefashionhistorian.com/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-109#post-1117228 Wed, 18 Dec 2013 14:26:40 +0000 Vildy 1117228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really been loving these links. Spending way too much time reading back through whole blogs. :D&nbsp; In relation to that great article and comments section about wearing oversize minimalist clothes, had just read another blog where author opined that you can't wear large oversize clothes unless you were thin and tall. Immediately thought that was an explanation of why I couldn't. When I was thin, as a girl, (though never anything but short) this wasn't in style so I never tried it out then. Sure doesn't work well for me now.</p> <p>From Linda Grant, an evaluation of how youthful style tends to evolve. <br />Severe criticism of the hippie style from the intriguing observation that <br />what cripples them is their original pursuit of authenticity when <br />"fashion is all about: surface, appearance"</p> <p><a href="http://moreintelligentlife.com/content/linda-grant/when-mods-grow" rel="nofollow">http://moreintelligentlife.com.....-mods-grow</a></p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-109#post-1117184 Wed, 18 Dec 2013 13:30:31 +0000 Jaime 1117184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Since I am inherently RATE,&nbsp;I found this very interesting:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://groupthink.jezebel.com/the-politics-of-looking-sloppy-1484332735/@laurabeck">http://groupthink.jezebel.com/.....@laurabeck</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-109#post-1117178 Wed, 18 Dec 2013 13:15:55 +0000 Inge 1117178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all brilliant, thanks so much Pil, Dana, Vicki (*smiling about the Downton Tabby book*:-), and Caro (nothing wrong with a nice big portion of '80s if you ask me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-109#post-1116700 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 22:44:04 +0000 Caro in Oz 1116700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.businessoffashion.com/2013/12/op-ed-when-passion-was-everything.html">http://www.businessoffashion.c.....thing.html</a></p> <p>Inge I'm having an 80s binge at the moment :)</p> <p>This is a&nbsp;clip of some clothes from one of my favourite designers&nbsp;Yohji Yamamoto and some interesting insights from&nbsp;Irene Silvagni.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-109#post-1116576 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 19:54:20 +0000 Vicki 1116576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are a couple of&nbsp;book titles to put some humor into the holidays or the new year. &nbsp;The first I heard about when I was returning some boots&nbsp;and&nbsp;the SA in the shoe dept. said this author used to work at her store&nbsp;and they were in the back room reading the book, laughing hysterically at every chapter. &nbsp;I can only imagine some of the horror stories from "Retail Hell: How I Sold My Soul to the Store Confessions of a Tortured Sales Associate," by author Freeman Hall.&nbsp;:)</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004JZWKPK/ref=pe_385040_30332200_pe_309540_26725410_item">http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004J.....25410_item</a></p> <p>The second book, "Downton Tabby" by author Chris Kelly,&nbsp;is for those who love cats in character, the "Downton Abbey" series and gorgeous illustrations of both!</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.amazon.com/Downton-Tabby-Chris-Kelly/dp/1476765936">http://www.amazon.com/Downton-.....1476765936</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-109#post-1116376 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 16:39:18 +0000 ironkurtin 1116376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a href="http://www.adweek.com/adfreak/7-most-inspiring-ad-campaigns-women-2013-154535" rel="nofollow">http://www.adweek.com/adfreak/.....013-154535</a></p> <p>I personally find the link of feminism with marketing a fairly nauseating trend (the problems women face are not solved by shinier hair or using Dove) but it's interesting that it IS a trend.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-109#post-1116219 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 12:48:04 +0000 pil 1116219@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>An envy inducing article on tailoring. </p> <p><a href="http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702303560204579250693129776518" rel="nofollow">http://online.wsj.com/news/art.....3129776518</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-109#post-1116201 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 10:57:20 +0000 Inge 1116201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>E - I can already see one can browse for hours on the site!<br />Anna - I'm intrigued, will read the article over lunch today.<br />geargirl - Great links, and I love the clean, minimalist feel of the blog.<br />Manidipa - How fun and colourful!</p> <p>Thanks so much for these wonderful links, ladies!

It's a fascinating look at historical clothing choices of&nbsp;women over 50&nbsp;in the US&nbsp;written by a retired professor. My favourites are the posts including old photographs of everyday women &amp; the blogger's astute commentary on their outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-109#post-1115625 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 19:09:11 +0000 Inge 1115625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What brilliant links have you come across this week?
