Links à la Mode: Our Differences Unite Us
Our Differences Unite Us Edited by Fashion Pulse Daily Coming off of Ashe Mischief’s Independent Fashion Blogger’s Post (Good Cop/Bad Cop: Participating in Links a la Mode), you all brought your A-game in posting the links a la mode — which made it extra hard to edit! This week, the theme that I saw emerging [...]
Read moreOut of the Nest: Fitness For Survivors
This is a post by Julie Goodale. We were elated when Julie contacted us with her story. She is an incredibly brave woman who has truly taken control of a negative, and turned it into a positive. If The Demoiselles is about one thing, it would be that very concept. Please visit Julie’s amazing blog, [...]
Read moreContains Graphic Material
While we both believe that quality and shape rule all, when it comes to dressing your body, we can’t continue to ignore one of our favorite past times: the graphic tee. Long have we been fans of Threadless, and now that we’ve grown past the state of witty one-liners across our breasts, we’re ready to [...]
Read moreAutumn in New York (& Company)
We’ve spent a lot of time, over the past few weeks, talking about the best fall and winter styles for each body type. What we haven’t yet covered is where you can find a long-wearing, long-lasting jacket – a place that covers not only the requisite straight-bodied size two or the ultra-curvy twelve, but everything [...]
Read moreIn Another’s Nest: Link Love
First thing’s first: if you haven’t done so already, check out Karla’s Closet. We’ll say it again: Karla’s Closet. Both of us absolutely adore her. She’s the epitome of personal style: from her cropped hair, to her platform shoes, to her sexy, muscular ex-dancer legs. Whenever we need a boost of inspiration, she can always [...]
Read moreStyle in Season: Sweater Dresses
First thing’s first: sweater dresses don’t have to be frumpy. It may take a little extra cash – or waiting for the right sale – but a well-made, well-fitted sweater dress can remain a winter staple for years. Jen bought one a year ago, and happily pulled it out of her closet last week for [...]
Read moreNaked.
How long has it been since you’ve spent any time naked? I’m not talking out-of-the-shower-and-into-a-towel naked, or changing-clothes naked. I’m talking about being purposefully naked. If it’s been a while – more than a month – I suggest you try it. Close the curtains, shut the blinds, and hang towels over your mirrors if you need [...]
Read morePretty in Punk: Betsey Johnson
I absolutely adore Betsey Johnson. To me, she just screams self-love: she cartwheels on catwalks, smiles in the face of oh-so-serious fashion editors, and seems to constantly be dancing to the beat of her own drummer whether there’s a drummer or not. Since I first saw her interviewed, I’ve felt a profound respect for Betsey. [...]
Read moreTrend Watch: Plaid
Plaid. We’ve both been back and forth on this trend for a while. Can it be done in a modern way? How long will it last? Moreover, do we even care? We went on a research spree, looking for the best (and worst) plaid options online. Some of them are seriously drool-worthy (see: DSquared) and [...]
Read moreArticle Outrage: Ralph Lauren Photoshop Disaster
At the time we were directed to the ad below, the two of us (Jen and Elle) were working via Skype. Instead of a text or video reaction to the article we read, we give you a screen capture, which was taken while we were both viewing the article and its accompanying image. For your [...]
