Clockwise from top left: Earlier in the week, Fashion Foie Gras kindly re-posted my tips on surviving your first (or second, or third!) Fashion Week; Rachel Phipps was also kind enough to include the same post in her Weekly Love post*; I am addicted to the beauty blog Into The Gloss and love PinkBow’s take on their regular Top Shelf feature; Still crazy for statement necklaces and Jennine over at The Coveted does them so well; I’m still obsessing over the Topshop spotty trousers from Wearing It Today and, almost as if they’re following me around, this week I spotted them (no pun intended!) over on The Man Repeller; and finally, Grit and Glamour’s 12 ways to be a better blogger is this week’s must-read.
