How to Tuck Your Pants Into Boots
The Big Piece of Cake is running a humongous, incredible, Oprah-level giveaway series right now. I'm especially obsessed with the Bee Gee Bag, but I'd happily win anything she's featured (or one of everything, please). Go enter!
Recently discovered Work With What You've Got--totally loving it.
Super Kawaii Mama has created the most awesome vintage-inspired gym outfits you ever did see.
Christine is like a real life Kate Spade ad, only cuter.
Now that is one badass manicure. But I wouldn't expect anything less from WendyB.
I think Princess Poochie did a great job with this respectful but thought-provoking post about a fashion blogger's new shoe line for Urban Outfitters.
So awesome: If Drawings Were Photographs
The superfantastic Sara Zucker has started up her personal style blog, Sara Wears Clothes, again after quite a bit of begging and pleading from me, and I'm really pumped about it. Please show her some love!
Speaking of blog resurrections I'm pumped about, my always-clever friend Meg just started up a new site called Award-Winning Weekends, packed with zany ideas and activities to spice up your days off.
"The real beauty of menswear is in the details." Hear, hear!
I don't usually like to be pushy, but BUY THIS CALENDAR. It will change your life. Guaranteed.
Things that depress me: Ken Burns documentaries, my cowlick, and the fact that there are no women writers on staff of the major late night comedy shows.
Want these so, so bad.
And in book news, I had a couple dreams come true this week. First off, Poetic & Chic posted a great review of Closet Confidential and invited me to fill out a Proust Questionnaire, which I may or may not have been preparing for since I read my first Vanity Fair as a confused small child.
If that wasn't exciting enough, the hilarious blog Oddly Enough shared some kind words about my book and allowed me to write snarky captions for a couple of crazy runway photos. Dream realized!
And finally, this adorable picture of S from Academic Chic holding her copy of Closet Confidential in Germany reminds me of that feature in Glamour magazine where readers hold up their Glamour magazines in cool places, like underwater in the hull of the Titanic, and write things like, "Here I am researching an iconic shipwreck and getting sweet tips about this season's nailpolish trends!"
But this picture is a thousand times better. For obvious reasons. Happy birthday, beautiful, and thanks for making my day!

Wow those Starry Night trainers are gorgeous!
You should do a Glamour style giveaway, people who send in a photo of them reading your book somewhere awesome get a free copy to give to a friend in need or something! :)
1) Thanks for the nod, lady!
2) I already love Award-Winning Weekends! I want to do all her fun things! And be friends with her, too! Maybe we can share her?
Thanks for the shout-out, doll! And isn't that photo of S. just the cutest?
I really like Princess Poochies article. Thanks for the other links to explore :)
Going through all of them!
Great set of links. Work with what you've got has been one of my favourites for a long time.
Style on a String ..because style has nothing to do with money.
This manicure was definitely worth the money! I'm loving it.
I love the link to that post on Jane's shoe line.
Hahaha I think the bro-flick list was written directly at me. I'VE MADE PEOPLE WATCH SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION.
Hi Winona, If you have time, check out my Barnes and Noble entry.
I love your blog Winona! I've started my own recently (it's kind of a pale imitation of people like you) and it would be awesome if you checked it out and told me what you thought! I hate pitching like this but...the feedback would be appreciated! sparklingtogether.blogspot.com
