Links a la Mode



Making it Your Own


Edited by Vahni of Grit & Glamour




Wow...I'm  a Links à la Mode editor...can you believe it?! So thrilled to have the  opportunity to discover new blogs and compelling posts to share with  all of you. That said, give me two minutes in the pulpit, and my "better  blog" sermon starts welling up, totally involuntarily. So allow me a  moment to share what I am looking for when I review submissions. It's  pretty simple: Be creative and original, tie your post into beauty or  fashion, use proper grammar and punctuation (spellcheck and proofread  before publishing), and credit your photo sources. Always.




And  on to the list...bloggers were in deep thought this week, pondering  ethical fashion and feminism, male gaze and Marthettes. But in case you  need to escape the heavy stuff, there is: denim! Happy reading, and as  you peruse and comment on this week's posts, why stop there? For every  comment you leave, why not check out the blog of the person who  commented above you and comment there too? It's a great way to expand  your mind—and your readership.
