We kindly request that you click over to our Network Partners before you close down the laptop for the weekend--we promise there is fashion yet to be had.

FashionFillers, put up some scans from the A/W 08 issue of Commons and Sense and boy does it make us nostalgic for the early-Madonna years. And lace gloves.

Makeup And Beauty Blog gives readers a lesson on how to wear red lipstick and which tubes will get you where you need to be.

It's been a while since we drooled over a pair of Blahniks but out Network Partner, Hello, Lover...Shoedaydreams (clearly not afraid of dropping a SATC reference here and there) brings us back.

And then she said something we all agreed with and wished we said ourselves, "If you've never worn a wig, you haven't lived.". The Budget Babe goes where Halloween will take us anyway. 

We don't know what y'all are up to this afternoon but we're wholly distracted and experiencing something of a mid-week slump right here at five on the dot. Thankfully, our Network gives us the opportunity to both finish work and maintain our mental wanderings! The television program Stylista seems to have aired and Fashion Addict Diary has a clip of Creative Director Joe Zee giving some friendly style advice. J'adore Couture posted a picture of Marc Jacobs wearing the hottest trend off the Spring 09 runway and FashionFillers gives a shout out to some ankle boots that are a New Yorker's dream come true come rainstorm. Finally, and most substantially, Style...A Work In Progress talks about a personal denim crusade and the Built By Wendy pair that fits the bill. At least someone's getting something done around here!
