Continuing the thread on Fashion Illustration: "AK's Guide to Suits". It was intended as a visual reference for artists for collar, cuff and lapel styles, etc. I find the details fascinating, i.e. the difference between English, Italian, and American cuts.

Loved Laurinda's link. Always wondered why women don't check into the match between face shape and buttoned collar that is recommended for men. (have seen sites with this shape/collar info before)

Continuing a theme:

I love the men's trad and tweed blogs for the rapt detail they go into. But I liked this piece for thinking about what kind of approach encourages each of us to want/buy.

Eek, I posted this in wrong area first.

I found this little article this morning and I found it interesting to read. I really liked #5 because I like to go out and walk around stores, but I usually don't buy anything. Maybe it just made me feel better.

This dapper couple at NYFW deserves a round of applause. Love seeing a man in a suit and a lady wearing flats with a dressy frock. Refreshing:

I found some ideas here for transitioning into fall and getting a little more mileage from some summer workhorses, http://family.yourway.net/tran.....more-11517

These are all brilliant, thank you!
And I too love to read about those kind of details (beautfiul visuals are always a bonus), Laurinda.

Here's a fun link of a fella incorporating camouflage into his conservative-cool wardrobe. I find I love it paired with a dash of orange. An unexpected natural!

This bloke does a lot of unique looks throughout his blog that would look equally great on a gal. I love his trousers with bare ankles in #2. Manspiration never gets old!

Inge, I have a question. I read a fun article in the WSJ about ladylike leather trends for fall. The trouble is, when I post links to WSJ articles they are often subscription-only. I know that WSJ (and NYTimes) allow free access to their articles when found through Google but not when directly linked. So, what is the best way to post these links so that most forum members can read them?

This is the direct link http://online.wsj.com/article/.....23436.html
and it also is the first link in a google search for "wsj trends leather".

Oooh, very fab colours indeed, MaryK.
That's so sweet of you to say, thank you JulieJohn! And that bloke's striped socks made me smile:-)
I'm not exactly sure, Makrame, but am off to investigate this further, because I agree that the WSJ often has interesting articles.

Thank you for these extra links, ladies.

Got another one, save it for next week if you want. Already Pretty shows how different boot shaft height affects the way your leg looks. Fun!

She details the use of different contrast levels with her pants / leggings, and how that figures in to the equation. She does the work so we don't have to!

Makrame, I forgot to say that we currently don't know another way around this, but since the WSJ articles are often so interesting, we will continue to add them to our Weekly Links posts and just mention that they are for subscribers only.
