I'll save the Shoescribe link for next week (we usually do one link per forum member per week). We actually already linked to the NYT article on Normcore in our 6 March post, but thank you for bringing it to our attention.<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2014/03/06/link-love-flower-power-in-2014/">http://youlookfab.com/2014/03/.....r-in-2014/</a></p> <p>Diane - And it's wonderful to have you I have a Fuji Finepix camera, and am going to re-read Catherine's tips again. Very helpful for sure.

"Jeremy Lewis, the founder/editor of&nbsp;<i>Garmento&nbsp;</i>and a freelance stylist and fashion writer, calls normcore “one facet of a growing anti-fashion sentiment.” His personal style is (in the words of Andre Walker, a designer Lewis featured in the magazine’s last issue) “exhaustingly plain”—this winter, that’s meant a North Face fleece, khakis, and New Balances. Lewis says his “look of nothing” is about absolving oneself from fashion, “lest it mark you as a mindless sheep.” This is a very depressing approach, and one I can tell from my brief acquaintance with the You Look Fab Forum will not be much appreciated here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-123#post-1211517 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 18:30:57 +0000 Inge 1211517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had no idea either, Laurinda, wow.<br />I too am digging the pink, Vicki.<br />Vildy, Jill and Ummlila, I'm saving your articles to read when I have a bit more time.<br />Ummlila: your first links goes to the main page of the shoe site, not sure if that was your intention?<br />Thanks for bumping, Joy.</p> <p>Thank you all for the marvelous links. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-123#post-1211112 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 03:20:02 +0000 Vicki 1211112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Think pink, and I wouldn't mind wearing a few of these, even though they're designed for men:</p> <p>In the Air | Masculin, Feminin</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://tmagazine.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/03/25/in-the-air-masculin-feminin/">http://tmagazine.blogs.nytimes.....n-feminin/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-123#post-1211090 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 03:01:02 +0000 JillG 1211090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Vivienne Files has an interesting post about calculating optimum wardrobe size (3/29/14).&nbsp; <a href="http://theviviennefiles.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">http://theviviennefiles.blogspot.com/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-123#post-1211086 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 02:54:29 +0000 Anonymous 1211086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bump </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-123#post-1210934 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 01:23:11 +0000 Laurinda 1210934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was surprised to learn that injection molded polyurethane soles - as comfortable as they are -&nbsp;only have an expected&nbsp;lifetime of 4-5 years. Even pricy shoes like Ecco and Sanita are vulnerable.&nbsp;I guess this is another good&nbsp;reason to have fewer pairs of shoes and wear them to death; they really do have an expiration (self-destruct)&nbsp;date.&nbsp;<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.phlmetropolis.com/2011/11/the-case-of-the-crumbling-shoes.php">The Case of the Crumbling Shoes</a><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.phlmetropolis.com/2011/11/the-case-of-the-crumbling-shoes.php">&nbsp;</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-123#post-1210825 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 23:23:16 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1210825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And this is old but interesting because I have seen a teenage girl who lives in my house participate in ugly selfies with her friends. <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2014/02/23/fashion/selfies-the-uglier-the-better-technology.html?_r=0" rel="nofollow">http://www.nytimes.com/2014/02......html?_r=0</a></p> <p>For her, it's all about owning your look, whether beautiful (which she is) or not (she can make some horrifying faces when she wants to). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-123#post-1210812 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 23:11:47 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1210812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Seriously interesting shoes: <a href="http://www.shoescribe.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.shoescribe.com</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-123#post-1210781 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 22:47:10 +0000 Vildy 1210781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>While I don't agree with 100% of her ideas (I can think of men wearing traditional "dresses" who are not celibate/asexual) I'm always interested in silhouette, unisex, androgyny, masculine/feminine. Particularly like weighing the current top heavy silhouette against the slouchier 70's style bottom heavy silhouette. <br />After all, here come the flares. :D<br /><a href="http://finalfashion.ca/silhouettes-and-signals/" rel="nofollow">http://finalfashion.ca/silhouettes-and-signals/</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-123#post-1210673 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 21:08:04 +0000 Inge 1210673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Giving this a little bump. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-123#post-1210189 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 10:29:32 +0000 Inge 1210189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi everyone,</p> <p>What fun and interesting stuff did you come across this week?
