We just want to hug Spork Fashion when she says she has a Fashion Week hangover after her time in Los Angeles as we feel like we are in a perpetual state of fashion week haze just about all the time. Make sure to check out her review of Crispin and Basilio

Senora Cartera reviews the Foley and Corinna Embossed Snake City Clutch. We find it quite handsome but then we are all over exotics pretty much all the time.

Chic and Untroubled reminds us that making a political statement with fashion isn't as important as actually engaging in civic behavior.

Thrift Eye goes through her archives to see if she does indeed have a way with mixing patterns. We are going with yes.

The Fashion Bomb went to the Levi's Holiday preview. Thank god someone went as we swore it was next week. We are so bad with events you know that?

Makeup and Beauty blog has 5 tips for storing your makeup but we are mostly fascinated with the creepy photo of a MAC lipstick in a tiny coffin. Is it a commentary on throwing away makeup that is past its sell by date maybe?

The Fashion Bomb Shoutout: White Out

The Fashion Bomb goes above and beyond the call of blogging duty consistently. Some blogs (you girls know you you are) rely on constant content repurposing when they run out of content but not the Fashion Bomb. She has been running a series called "Breaking Into Fashion" that is quickly becoming one of the best resources to read insights from diverse movers and shakers in the fashion industry on getting started in our notoriously difficult to crack business. Today's installment of the series includes an interview with eBay's Style Director Constance White. We could never quite figure out what she did (since who isn't advising some giant technology giant on fashion these days, heck even we do it on occasion) so this post has double utility for us. Thanks Claire!
