– LOTC: Affordable Style Inspiration from NYFW Fall 2013 RTW

– FFF – Gucci Fall 2013 RTW and boat trips

Here are other worthy reads from blogger buddies and beyond:

– My husband and I love soy products (notably tofu, mmm great as a meat substitute if you can impart it with enough flavor!) I was worried about some of the risks though and this article showed a good balance of the pros and cons of this little known protein.

– This list of hotel perks is pretty interesting – would you have used the services of a social media manager to take over your accounts while you are on vacation?

– I try to follow a Mediterranean diet (mmm olive oil and fish) when I can and new research proves that it is indeed a factor in preventing heart disease.

– I love seeing fashion through the years and this exhibit in Paris reminded me of how fashion can be very current while still connecting itself to history (pictured above).
