Ledonna I've been a fan of Oonaballoona for years! Her sewing is so inspirational to me and she is just hands down fab. (pattern! color!)

I found this article asking if the "plus" size moniker should just be scrapped: http://qz.com/680850/plus-size.....y-with-it/
The article examines all sides of the issue. I am all for inclusion and making women happy. I wondered what others think - do we need a separate category for plus size these days?

Shevia - Love your tip!-)
Ledonna - I'll definitely be browsing the oonaballoona blog more thoroughly. And thank you for bumping the thread, that's so sweet of you.
Laura - That made me smile too:-))
Heather - What an interesting article. And I didn't know this:
"Lane Bryant started another trend, too. In the early 1920s, the company
adopted the term “plus” in preference to “stout,” the contemporary
adjective commonly applied to women who didn’t match the era’s svelte
ideal. "

Hey You welcome Inge

Heather.
http://qz.com/680850/plus-size.....y-with-it/

was actually good and reminds me that we should maybe rotate some words maybe every couple of generations. Because they become outdated.

Laura: Oh my this is so true and so real. But I want a real thing nothing fake. This actually happened to me This is how I was able to get a free photo shoot http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....hoto-shoot

5. Befriend the photographers.
You might think it's okay to pop by an opening in jeans and sneakers,
but if you're looking less than fashionable, you'll want to avoid Patrick McMullan and BFA—otherwise that bad hair day might be forever immortalized online

Is anybody here watching Outlander? Attached is the first of a series of blog posts on the costuming in the episodes of the second season. Unlike many bloggers who just drool over the gorgeous historical outfits (1740s and 1940s), here the styling choices are analyzed in terms of how they advance character, mood, and plot.

Interesting NYT article about the NBA players realizing the importance of what they wear from the team bus to the locker room.

I haven't watched it yet, L'Abeille, but I'm loving this analysis. Very interesting to learn more about the thought process behind the outfit choices.
Really love your link too, JAileen.

Thank you both!

I am closing the thread for this week, and want to thank you all again for the marvelous links!
