I love the photos that were sent in, Laurinda.<br />Sharan, yes, we used it last week, thanks. It's a good article, isn't it.<br />Diana - What an excellent set of example outfits.<br />Caro - I really enjoyed hearing the designer's thoughts on her collection and her work in general.<br />Rabbit - Ha! I had no idea this was happening.<br />E - Nice peek behind the wardrobe scenes.<br />Viva - Very interesting. I love the conclusion: <i>"How do you erase a stereotype? You confront it, and force others to<br /> confront their own preconceptions about it, and then you own it. And in<br /> doing so you denude it of its power."</i><br />Thanks for the tip, Vildy. That's exactly how I search for articles like that too. (Found your article Joy!-)</p> <p>Such fantastic links, thanks so much everyone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-170#post-1462841 Wed, 25 Mar 2015 11:04:43 +0000 viva 1462841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is an interesting article about Michele Obama's recent "Let Girls Learn" trip and her wardrobe choices.

I saw a Ramones shirt being sold at Kohls the other day, which gave me a bit of a double take. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-170#post-1462780 Wed, 25 Mar 2015 04:28:25 +0000 rabbit 1462780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This relates in my mind to the article Anna recced last week about hipster clothing brands appropriating youth culture but not understanding it. &nbsp;It's about H&amp;M and their (imaginary) metal band clothing, and some metal musicians who decided to create fake histories and social media footprints&nbsp;for them as a prank. &nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.billboard.com/articles/business/6509577/h-m-finntroll-henri-sorvali-metal-merch-lany-?source=gravity">http://www.billboard.com/artic.....-lany-?sou</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-170#post-1462724 Wed, 25 Mar 2015 00:39:32 +0000 Caro in Oz 1462724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tuyen Tran: Winner of the 2015 Vilcek Prize for Creative Promise in Fashion &amp; a&nbsp;recent Parson's graduate.

In this case, all I had to do was google the title and it took me right to it from the google search page and I was able to read it. I did keep <br />the quote marks in the search term and don't know if that helped or not. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-170#post-1462354 Tue, 24 Mar 2015 12:34:38 +0000 Laurinda 1462354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More on shoes --&nbsp;An eight-year-old&nbsp;Sophia Trow&nbsp;asked Clarks:&nbsp;<span>"Why can't girls have dinosaur shoes?"

The slide show had such fun facts on each slide. For example, I had no clue that mules were once associated with ladies of the evening or that heels were first worn by women to look more masculine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-170#post-1461867 Mon, 23 Mar 2015 16:27:47 +0000 Inge 1461867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Let's do another round, shall we?</p> <p>Pop your style-related link in the comments below and do let us know why you would like to share it.</p> <p>Many thanks! </p>
