Final Exams, Hautelinks, Avelle Giveaway Reminder, etc.!

It’s been a little quiet around here lately, and don’t think I haven’t noticed.
Thought I’d update you guys on what’s going on with me – it’s exam week and I’m inundated with papers and projects, most of which are due tomorrow. I’m sure all of you know how that is! So that’s why I haven’t been able to update here lately. Also if you’ve sent me an email and are still waiting to hear back, my apologies! But I’ll get to all of your emails by the end of this week, and I have some great posts planned for this weekend too.
In other news, I wanted to remind you all that today is your last chance to enter the $250 Avelle Gift Card Giveaway! The comments section will close at midnight Eastern time tonight, so make sure to get your entries in by then for a chance to win. A winner will be announced tomorrow – will it be you?
Updates here will resume ASAP! Until then, here are some fashion articles to tide you over:
FabSugar gives us a look inside Miss Sixty’s Spring/Summer ‘09 Lookbook.
Anna Sui is releasing a collection for Target! Even better? It’s based on the four main Gossip Girl ladies – Blair, Serena, Jenny, and Vanessa. Sounds pretty great if you ask me.
Stumped for what to wear your exams? Casey of Teen Fashionista models a cute finals week outfit.
WhoWhatWear Daily did a great piece on 90’s Fashion. Tacky? Maybe. But fabulous? Oh yes.

A great post on the rules for wearing Ugg boots by the always fabulous Gala Darling.
Published a few weeks ago, but still great – Questions Answered: Missbehave x2 + More! – former Vogue intern & style blogger Jazzi McGilbert talks fashion internships, living in NYC, and how working in fashion isn’t what the Devil Wears Prada makes it out to be.
A little summer fashion inspiration: Roxy Ads – don’t they make you wish you were a surfer girl?
See you all in a few days, and good luck with your exams if you’re taking them now!

I’m sick of the Uggs debate – people, just wear them if you want, and if you don’t want to wear them then don’t…. Let it die already…
On another note, good luck with projects/papers/finals!

I agree with the above commenter – who cares? There are uglier trends we need to focus our energy on eliminating :) lol.
Good luck w/ exams! I go to NU, so we’ve been done for weeks.

What I love about CF is that it still has a small enough readership (despite its great success) that it feels pretty responsive and personal. I asked a while ago for an article on cute winter outfits.. and one appeared! As a senior living in Hawaii who will be attending a university in Boston next year (and thus has no winter-wear knowledge whatsoever) I am in desperate need of advice. I know its way into the Spring fashion season by now, but if you ever have some free time I would LOVE to see an article on what fashionable people wear in negative degree weather- the best long underwear, long coats, snow boots, etc for both staying warm and not looking like a total ugly blob. You can justify it (given the current spring fashion season) with the fact that winter wear sales are starting to end and girls should capitalize on that now maybe. Or you can do the article next winter… just sometime please!
Thanks, and good luck on everything!

You’re almost free! Woohoo. :)

I love Miss 60 – they look so European and trendy and sexy, but they are expensive!?! Why they don’t sell them in Marshalls and TJ Maxx??? :)))
Twin XL
Super trendy- hope I can afford a pair this fall!!

Hi! I love the blog and like the above poster said I love how you actually answer reader questions. I know it’s super basic but I still have no clue how to pair skirts and tops. I’m a big fan of skirts but every time I buy a cute skirt I get it home only to realize that I have no idea what top to wear with it.
This one for example:

Adorable but how do you match a top with that without drawing attention to your stomach? I’d be happy to hear any tips you have. Good luck with finals!

Good luck with your finals and papers!
Huh, 90’s fashion. If fashion trends go around in 20-year cycles, does this mean that since we’re at the end of the 00s decade, the 80s fashion revival is about to die soon?

I’m anticipating the summer/travel selection! I’m leaving in about a week and I really hope she posts soon! (:

I am so excited to hear Anna Sui is doing a collection for Target.
I don’t really follow the show Gossip Girl that much, but I do tune in every now and again to see the great clothes!
