Links à la Mode, Round 5


As I was rather excited about my Denim Therapy find, I submitted it to IFB for their weekly Top 20 picks, and voilà!, it was picked. Be sure to click away and read the other 19 posts!

The Countdown Begins


Edited by Dramatis Personae

The countdown has begun–not only until the end of the year–but until the end of the first decade in the 21st century. That’s kind of amazing to think about. Styletastic and Sway, Sway, Away! both look at fashion from the Oughts with two distinctly different visions. [the3st] interviews the founder of ModCloth, while Wicked & Whimsy reviews Closet Confidential (by the hilarious Winona of DaddyLikey fame!).

Since this will be my last edit of links a la mode for this year, see you all in 2010!
