Lovely Links: January 15

Why do you sit, glued to the computer, searching for endless hours for that perfect mustard yellow pump? Because you’re seeking. (Via Sister Wolf.)

Dara’s got five great tips for KEEPING your body image resolutions.

Hear ye, hear ye ladies of large foot! A roundup of online shoe stores just for you.

Ever wondered if that vintage dress is REALLY Dior? Here are some helpful hints for spotting switched labels.

MadamOwl muses on what it means to dress modestly. (Via Oranges and Apples, whose comments on the topic are also well worth reading.)

Just try not to giggle at fashematics. (Via Hot Robot.)

Are the haters getting you down? Here are some beacons of positivity for when you need a daily reading pick-me-up.

Think sizing woes are the exclusive domain of us gals? Not so, not so.

I really like Crystal Renn. Really a lot. She’s smart and level-headed, she’s been through some heavy shit, and she seems pretty comfortable in the difficult role that’s being foist upon her: Poster child for everything that is wrong with modeling. (Thanks to Junebug B for the link.)

Further proof that ruanas are supercool.

I’m an advocate for looking your best as often as possible. But always? Like, even when you’re watching re-runs of “Buffy” at home, alone?

Bobbi Brown asked her girlfriends to model for her new campaign. Holy cats, women with freckles and frizz, wrinkles and schnozzes!

Nina’s new feature, Anonymous Monday Blogger Confessional, is SO FUN! Stop by and play along. (Also, have you seen her new ‘do? Unbearably gorgeous.)

And from the Department of Random, I’m QUITE sure you need a little Demetri today:
