Well blow me down with a feather! I’ve gawn and dun a double and all on a post that centred around…doubles!
Thanks to Lisa at Independent Fashion Bloggers for including me in her weekly round-up – Links à la Mode for a second week in a row!
I’m chuffed that my Double Denim | Modern Boho Chic post was chosen, especially as the flavour of the post – Modern Boho Chic isn’t a natural fit for me. I loved pulling this trend together with my first ever double denim look. With my new denim trench, I can’t wait to style more double denim looks in the coming months. I’m gonna be so denim-ed out by Christmas!
Onto the links…
I thoroughly enjoyed the photos of Antwerp on We Are Ready Made’s post – I’ve been to Antwerp briefly for a day and it’s a lovely City. The vibrant photos brought back some great memories and the grafitti/artwork photos they captured should inspire the colour lovers amongst us!
So far this year, Tall Brown Fox and I have managed to get to 3 exhibitions in London so I was intrigued by FemmeViolet’s post on a new exhibition at a museum I know well – the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston – a City I spent a wonderful 5 days visiting about 15 years ago. #techstyle is all about clothes being recycled, wearable art, garments being created via 3D printers so where the crossroads of fashion and technology meet.

Lisa Walker writes: Whoever thought that ‘Big Box Store’ and ‘Fashion’ could be mentioned in the same sentence without an ounce of sarcasm? Well, it’s happened, been happening for a while, and just seems to be getting better. On trend denim and fashion forward designer collaborations checking out with Q-tips and dijon mustard. Just like the good ol’ days of the general goods store. Well, maybe not quite that.
1970’s essentials seem to be gaining traction in 2016, and IFB Bloggers are sharing their favorite ways to make those looks current. Gift guides if you’re shopping in Tokyo or from the comfort of your computer screen. Also, some opinion on what keeping a New Year’s resolution looks like and what a little pampering can do. And I was especially excited by the color coral and Ankara prints this round up.
Thanks for all the submissions this week. You all make it such a challenge to pick only twenty.
