Thanks so much, M! These are all great!

FYI: For our bi-weekly Link Love posts we prefer to use only style-related links, so I will use the one about the holiday sweaters.

P.S. The rose apple pie is so pretty. (And now you have me craving pie!-)

Thanks, Inge. Thought that might be the case. (I've also recently enjoyed leafing through a few case studies about life cycles of business-centered on-line communities, but they're behind a paywall anyway. )

Is there a non-FB link to Janet's article, for those of us whose profiles are work-only?

One of the mmlafleur dresses I'm wondering how would fit at top end of their size range:

And last but not least, as I liquidate a late relative's weighty jewelry collection, I'm taking comfort in looking for pieces I'll enjoy wearing now. (Rather than cataloguing archivally in a closet.)

These are refreshingly different to the chinese-made, mass-marketed department-store offerings we see everywhere:

Their "Angie" necklace is nothing like our Angie would wear, though!

And these might be relevant to recent discussions:

but I suspect we've seen them before.

Lots of suggestions for ways to wear a too- long belt.

Thanks so much, M. I should also have mentioned earlier hat we usually do 1 or 2 links per forum member in every Link Love post. So I'll use the ugly holiday sweater and the tights roundup in this week's post, and save the others for the next two Link Love posts. (I think we've indeed seen the last two links before, so will skip those). Love those statement necklaces, and the Catherine dress is beautiful.

Joy - Good one, many thanks.

Hi Inge --

This might have already been mentioned, I'm late coming to it, but:

Refinery 29's "Unstyled" podcast series explores style, body image, body size, the business of fashion etc via interviews with well-known women. I'm working my way through and could easily cut and paste tons from those I've heard.

11 on the schedule, so far it's:

Stacy London (worth mentioning, her experience on living with body dysmorphia and shifting body sizes),
Danielle Brooks
Leandra Medine of Manrepeller
Ashley Graham (sharing her experiences as a model and clothing entrepreneur)
Norma Kamali

Thanks so much for the link!
