I grinned to see Janice's post "How I Pack: Jewelry" http://theviviennefiles.blogsp.....welry.html at the Vivienne files. I am trying to follow Angie's advice -- Don’t Stare At Them, Wear Them -- and the quote "Really, what's the point in having nice things if I don't take them with me on amazing vacations to Paris?" went straight to my heart.

Some great styling ideas found here from a JCrew stylist..scrunching sleeves, messy tucks and cuffs, scarf and belting tips!

Here's a fun story about a work-at-home writer who discovers the value of dressing in real clothes. http://www.theglobeandmail.com.....le4575399/ We are actually more productive when we dress well!

I'm waiting to see Chanel, Valentino and Stella McCartney shows this week and want to link to those, Inge! Or I might link to the spectacular Dries van Noten show

I was fascinated by this completely unattainable fashion show.

This blog is geared to the 50+ set but I read it avidly. This post is about the plethora of leather details on this year's fall clothes. http://passagedesperles.blogsp.....-fall.html

I *love* NY Magazine's The Cut Lookbooks, and this week I *really* love that they've featured French Vogue editor Emmanuelle Alt. Talk about someone who knows her style and how to look effortlessly chic....

I loved reading and looking at this article on Cnn.com about the history of the little black dress and the exhibit that Andre Leon Talley has put together displaying 81 LBD's by various designers http://www.cnn.com/2012/10/02/.....?hpt=hp_c2

I can't think of anything more fashion iconic than the LBD!

Inge, I'd love to share my favourite Spring 2013 runway shows at Paris Fashion Week:

Dries van Noten for his mastery in elegantly over the top pattern mixing, and perfecting the "baggy-fitted" silhouette.

Chanel for their incomparable faux pearl fabness and taking the Spring tweed suit to new levels.

http://www.style.com/fashionsh.....RTW-CHANEL

And Jean Paul Gaultier for his super fun '80s pop star style inspirations.

Not sure if I've made the deadline, or if this fits what you are looking for, but I just came across this (older) post with a list of the top ten fashion museums around the world:

Not too late at all, Debby, I usually close the weekly threads around noon (European time) on Wednesday. Thanks very much for this fun link, when are we visiting our first museum?-)

Angie, super! I thought Dries Van Noten was fantastic, off to browse Chanel and J.P. Gaultier now.

Thanks again everyone for the fab links, this thread is now closed.
