We prefer not to link to our members' personal blogs in the Link Love posts though, I hope that makes sense. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-132#post-1269191 Wed, 04 Jun 2014 14:49:26 +0000 Kristin at SouvenirFinder.com 1269191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>haha Vildy, I actually wanted to put in a disclaimer that certain advice doesn't apply to problem feet, but it ended up being too wordy!&nbsp; In that case, you need to do whatever works, fashion be damned-- I sprained my ankle last years, and 3 months in a boot was followed by several months in whatever shoe would fit my ankle brace. :&nbsp; )</p> <p>I like velcro fine for athletic pursuits too-- I have teva sandals that aren't super attractive but are very practical for warm weather hiking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-132#post-1269179 Wed, 04 Jun 2014 14:37:15 +0000 Vildy 1269179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>don't know etiquette on linking oneself but I enjoyed the article, not least for the controversial statement on velcro. What? No velcro: Fastener of the Gods for those of us with temperamental feet, especially those swelling from air travel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-132#post-1269091 Wed, 04 Jun 2014 13:14:06 +0000 Kristin at SouvenirFinder.com 1269091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm new here so not sure if we are allowed to add our own links?

"Lola" is in her 60's and has such a cool aesthetic. She does wear a lot of designer pieces but her look can be achieved by people with regular budgets (like moi). Maybe some of the other Fabbers might find her style interesting and even inspirational.</p> <p><a href="http://lolaandrogynous.blogspot.com.au" rel="nofollow">http://lolaandrogynous.blogspot.com.au</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-132#post-1268923 Wed, 04 Jun 2014 04:22:50 +0000 Anonymous 1268923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another bump </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-132#post-1268741 Wed, 04 Jun 2014 01:25:39 +0000 Laurinda 1268741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great minds think alike Joy!

Inge, if you don't want to use the video I linked to, here is another article. As a long lover of cordonvan leather (but don't own any), I had no idea that it was actually a specialty and found this fascinating:<br /> <a href="http://online.wsj.com/articles/cordovan-shoes-for-men-play-even-harder-to-get-1400881239" rel="nofollow">http://online.wsj.com/articles.....1400881239</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-132#post-1268123 Tue, 03 Jun 2014 13:24:16 +0000 Anonymous 1268123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last week's Thursday Wall Street Journal had an article that ( to me) was disturbing...a trend of retailers to move away from numerical sizes. Those who like their clothing to have a tailored fit or are picky about fit will be alarmed. Here is a video that sums up the article, which doesn't seem to be available except to subscribers<br /> <a href="http://live.wsj.com/video/more-retailers-embrace-alpha-sizing/03601420-002C-4C9F-A03E-467830C86D3E.html#!03601420-002C-4C9F-A03E-467830C86D3E" rel="nofollow">http://live.wsj.com/video/more.....7830C86D3E</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-132#post-1268043 Tue, 03 Jun 2014 10:59:02 +0000 T 1268043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There was a discussion this week on the forum about repeating outfits, on the same topic I read this blog post by a fashion blogger who was criticized by readers for repeating a pair of shoes too often.
