Daniel Miller and Sophie Woodward did a whole monograph on the meaning of jeans wearing and concluded that a huge element was that they conferred instant belonging. And though not so much a jeans wearer in my own life, I do reach for them when I want to attend a casual community event like a National Night Out walk. Before, I would have resisted this. </p> <p>And the Vivienne Files is doing an abecedary of fashion rules (which I haven't appreciated much as it's too roolsy for me) and mentions the need for "quiet." Well, tell that to Advanced Stylers. </p> <p>However, I was interested in Rebecca's thoughtful post, in particular the question she asks about "the line between expressing yourself through appearance and being immodest?"&nbsp; While I do think she keeps in mind immodesty of the revealing sort, I believe what she's going for here is more focused on is what is our relationship to others if we are always the most stand out person? Standing out seems to be a new standard judging by the ubiquity of the celeb photos that are everywhere. (one reason YLF is such a great inspiration - people dressing for their real unpapperazied lives)</p> <p><a href="http://betweenmypeers.com/2013/08/14/feeling-confident-in-your-clothes/" rel="nofollow">http://betweenmypeers.com/2013.....r-clothes/</a></p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-post-your-weekly-links-here-92#post-1005516 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 10:18:05 +0000 Inge 1005516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all super, thanks ladies!</p> <p>Texstyle: I love how Bridgette clearly explains the concept with photos.

I actually love black but black and white together often feel a bit too much for me.
