The holidays have come and gone, and I realized that I didn’t write a “Links I Love” post for November. So, I compiled 15 links, including a few from November. From the best fashion movies to watch to why a fashion influencer walked away at the height of her success, and everything in-between. Best Fashion Movies to Watch {Kate Waterhouse} – I’ve already seen most of these fashion movies, but they are so good that I could watch them over and over and still discover something new.

It seems like every fashionista is styling their winter outfits will tall boots, skinny jeans {or jeggings / leggings}, and either oversize sweaters, pullovers, or warm coats. Well, for today’s dress form outfit, I thought I’d show you my take on a casual winter look. This is something I’d wear on a weekend, or {because I wear scrubs during the week}, I’d wear this on a day off from work.
