Links A La Mode: August 25/11
Here's some link love from IFB, an online comunity for bloggers, check it out!
Knock, knock, Who's there? It's me September! The month you learn to love and hate... But love more.
That's right everyone September is right around the corner waiting to knock on your door. As fashion bloggers this gets to be a rather insane month. You run around like crazy from place to place and your schedule may seem never ending. I don't know about you, but I tend to ask myself... How can I top last September? It's a month for makeovers! Now before you go grab your friends and have a scene straight out of Clueless, let me clarify what I mean by makeover. I don't expect you to be only concerned about what you're wearing but EVERYTHING! I believe September is a great month for change. Refresh your wardrobe, change your writing style up a bit, find different angles to cover shows, go back and look at last September and figure out how to spice things up this year, perhaps it's time to refresh your gadgets?, change your make-up palette, read new content, simply explore! Change is usually a good thing.

V Magazine is Pro-Choice
In this issue V Magazine dares to be bold! They are PRO choice. Yes, at first I thought they were taking a stand against abortion too, but that's not what this is about. All about transformation, the mag is letting you know that this season, we can throw "signature style" out the window. Try on as many images as you like, be someone different for a day. Experiment and mix the unconventional with the predictable! I really like this message. As someone who likes to draw inspiration from a little bit of everything, these beauty shots are right up my alley, because I consider myself somewhat of a shifter if you will.
I would like to say that the final look from the video was my inspiration BUT I had this idea two days before I saw this video, when I bought purple lipstick at Sephora (you can tell because I'm wearing the same blouse in the previous post). I've been leaning towards some dark witchy/gothic and old religion vibes (probably derived from my True Blood obsession). That doesn't mean that I have to go ALL tack. I can still look stylish and I can still do sexy. All in all, I thought the beauty editorial fit with the themes I had going on here.
With that in mind, I went for a strapless bra under a sheer polka dotted blouse (bit of Marc Jacobs reference) and this faux leather skirt from H&M, which is my new favourite item for fall. Paired with tribal tights, clunky Jimmy Choo for H&M cuff and a witchy boot to ad some unexpected as well as slightly cliché touches.
If you would like to know what products Lindsay Lullman is wearing check out the article online.
I am wearing Lancôme Artliner, Blush Subtil in sheer amorôse and Hypnôse Drama Mascara, Clinique Bottom Lash Mascara, Mac Sheertone Shimmer Blush in dollymix, and Makeup Forever Rouge Artist Intense Lipstick 15.
