Check out two new links for the fashion conscious or unconscious, A Dress A Day and The Sartorialist. Also, for the fashion conscious, William Nicholson's Miss Simpson's Boots (1919), the first of Saturday, June 24th's posts.

I thought that it might be interesting to compare what Nicholson was doing in 1919 with something that Picasso was also doing in 1919. A still life by Picasso is the first of Monday, June 26th's posts. The Nicholson looks several decades older than 1919 in comparison to the Picasso, which looks, well, like 1919. Still, I think that I prefer the Nicholson, and this despite being a great admirer of Picasso.
