You'd think at age 50 I would know how to dress for shopping. But I don't. It takes me forever to get my own clothes off and then back on again.

Behind the scenes of how Brigitte Bardot got her look. I hadn't realized she was not a blonde nor that the high ponytail originally belonged to quite young children.

I don't own any yoga pants so I don't get what the objection is supposed to be. But I heard a lighthearted discussion yesterday on sports talk radio where the 25-35 year old guys thought there wasn't a thing women looked better in.

Illustrator Sara Richard has drawn covers for My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, created the Eisner-nominated Kitty & Dino, and is currently working on a children’s book. She’s also recently launched the website Haute PopC, where she illustrates haute couture fashion based on pop culture.

Great drawings that remind me of Erte back in the day.

I finally have a link to post! Not sure if someone posted this yet. The Costume Institute’s new Anna Wintour Costume Center will open on May 8 with the inaugural exhibition Charles James: Beyond Fashion, on view from May 8 through August 10, 2014, which will examine the career of legendary 20th-century Anglo-American couturier Charles James. Some of his gowns were incredibly heavy but designed architecturally so as to be wearable. I am excited to go to New York to see this exhibit!

This first link has more information but the 2nd link has some images of the dresses at the bottom if you click on images or video.

Vildy - I knew Ms Bardot wasn't a blonde but the high ponytail info is new to me too.
Marlene - :-)) If it's alright with you, I'll save your second link for next week's blog post.
Dana - Those are gorgeous, and I see Erte in there too.
Great links Laura and Laura
Lyn D. - No I don't think so, and I adore Audrey too.
Jeanie - We did have links to a NY Times article about the exhibition, but these are fab too. Have a marvelous time at the exhibit!

Thanks very much everyone, these are all brilliant links.

If it isn't too late:

Bridgette Raes came up with a topic that is relevant to my post earlier this week when I asked about dealing with unasked for fashion advice, "How to tell someone they need a makeover."
