Links Ala Mode- IFB Flavor from the Last Week of February

The best scoop on the block: Gunther's Ice Cream (photo credit: Tom Spaulding)

The best Links Ala Mode in WEEKS, and yes, certainly I am being biased. Because not only did yours truly make the list with the highest rated blog post in Citizen Rosebud history (with over 1000 page hits and counting...) but also making the list were several of my favorite reads this week, contributed by some of my favorite bloggers. HUGS ALL AROUND!

This month, my valentine was to highlight women of style over the age of 40, and it turns out I'm not the only one who is interested in this group of stylish women! In fact, more and more, women, and men are discovering the seasoned style of these fabulous + 40 bloggers- a few who just might be featured in this week's Links Ala Mode. 

The View from Here

Edited by Holier than Now

So the time has come for me to pass the baton to the next Links a La Mode curator, but in reflecting on the last few months I’m amazed at the diversity of aesthetics, lifestyles and opinions I’ve discovered gathering these links each month.  It’s a great view from here in the blogosphere: whether it’s up close at Fashion Week from the comfort of your chair) a new take on what you see in the mirror, or a peephole into the world of stylish women from Scotland to Spain (and everywhere in between).

But Links a la Mode is also about putting yourself on view!  If you’re reading this and you publish a blog, why not bookmark the link to submit your Links a La Mode posts here and make a repeating event on your calendar to drop by each Tuesday of the week with your latest and greatest post?  I’ll see you there…

  16. congrats on the feature again! this doesn't surprise me one bit though, you have a great writing style. As exemplified by your AWESOME comment on my outfit. I totally aspire to do just that when I get dressed: create an organic whole, something that looks like it was meant to be instead of looking overly styled or forced. I hate it when people in fashion look like they're wearing a costume, I just wear clothes you know.

    My best "secret" is to pair high impact items with other high impact items. I hate it when people wear one thing in a bright color on an entirely black backdrop, for example. That's not a whole, that's bright + black. I really enjoy outfits that "click" on an almost subconscious level. I love that you see that in me.
