Links a la Mode – Thank You Kindly

Earlier this week I learned My Dream Fall Shopping List was included in Jennine Jacob’s Independent Fashion Bloggers Links a la Mode. Below you will find the entire list of bloggers chosen by editor Florrie Clarke of Intrinsically Florrie. Thank you tremendously for including The Simply Luxurious Life.

Fast Forward to Fall

Edited by: Florrie Clarke of Intrinsically Florrie.

The trends for the coming months were dictated back on the catwalks in February, but now as September draws closer it’s time to get our teeth into them and have a good hard think about those all important autumn buys. Particularly seeing as while I type this the weather is strongly urging me towards a winter wardrobe.

This week’s links both look to winter and bask in the remaining sun. We look at a fashion interpretation of the current oil spill disaster (intelligent or tasteless?), are inspired by gorgeous fashion illustrations and a chain bag DIY, debate the history of the ‘prep’ look and think about how all our choices determine our body shape.
