Good piece by a fashion forward Orthodox Jew. Her insights are of interest not only to people who dress modestly for religious reasons or otherwise, but to the Fabber community, making the trends work for us.

Umm Lila got my link.

Unrelatedly, there was a tirade in today's Guardian against flares, but it's not worth sharing.

I enjoyed this piece about layering, a subject that has garnered much attention in the past year. The outfits are beautiful and the use of neutral colours alone helps make the effect of layering more apparent. Modern, simple and classic.

For anyone based in the UK there's a major exhibition of the fashion of Yves Saint Laurent to be staged at the Bowes Museum in County Durham later this year:

On the forum, we've been discussing heel height and a woman's right to choose. Here's a Canadian entrepreneur who has taken Paris by storm with her innovative shoes that come with interchangeable heels in various heights and styles -- all named, with sly humour, for men!

I discovered http://www.oonaballoona.com/p/threads.html in the back of a craft magazine. I liked looking at her colourful style and she makes the clothes herself! I was inspired to get the sewing machine out again and have a go.

Oh hey, I was going to link the same thing as Suz!! Too funny. Must have been in the Canadian newspaper. That's right - Sat Globe!!

Another one I found fascinating was cleaning your jeans in the freezer

But when I read through the comments I discovered it was more for raw denim. Interesting, nonetheless.

Loved that slideshow, approprio.
Suz, that's quite an interesting concept, isn't it.
NZ Nicola - fun how she embraces patterns and colours.
Jackie - Great minds think alike;-) Ah yes, the jeans, I've read about this before, never tried it though.

Thank you all for the marvelous links.
