• If you are bored with your wardrobe, before running to the mall, try these 5 style challenges (from College Fashion). We already done a 30 for 30 last summer, it's quite a challenge, but it's very creative and inspiring. We'll be sure to do it again when Kendi will start another one.

• Try also these five things (from Refinery29). I love love LOVE #2 (blush). I really love blush. I also liked #3 (statement earrings). I'm unsure about #4... not ready yet to change my skinny jeans (scoop: Yay or Nay about jeans soon to come). And you?

• As I asked you in a recent Yay or Nay on maxi skirts, I'm unsure about the maxi skirt trend, though I bought a maxi dress last summer. It's not the same thing for me, I didn't really know how to style one and make it look modern until I read this (from Lucky Magazine). I may try to embrace the trend... but I still have to find a maxi skirt first. To be continued!

• Everyone talked about Emmanuelle Alt succeeding to Carine Roitfield as Vogue Paris' editor-in-chief (from Vogue.com) and Blake Lively being the new face of Chanel Mademoiselle Bags (from Fashion Telegraph). Thoughts?
  
  
• Afraid to wear dark nail color? Make no mistake with the best dark nail colors for your skintone (from In Style).
  
  
• Are flats really going to be in this spring? YES, please! (From Teen Vogue)

• Speaking of spring, here are spring's trends according to Vogue (from Vogue.com). My favorites: Do-It-All denim, White Spirit, Nude Study, Party On, Skinny Belts and Bare Necessities. And you?

• Spring's six colors trends (from Refinery29). I'm not much of a color person, but I liked honeysuckle pink (adorable! and it's Pantone's color of the year) and earth tones. Your favorites?

• Check out Madewell's spring's lookbook... cute! (From Nylon Magazine)

• Before we think about spring, we're still stuck in the middle of winter. Some of you might be at risk for foot fungus... ewwww. (From Fashionista.com)

• Who do you think was the best-dressed at the People's Choice Awards? (From Fashion Telegraph) My choices: Emma Roberts and Natalie Portman. Yours?

• I really liked this editorial from Vogue Italia featuring Keira Knightley (from Fashion Gone Rogue). Pretty, feminine and fun.
