Amazing looks! Makes you want to watch the Pilot for the gazillionth time, doesn't it?

It's not too late to send submissions for the next episodes! Just get them to me the day before and they'll show up in the countdown. Thanks to everyone for participating in the fun!

Which are your favorites?

Channeling Emma - Dee

Yep, it's official. I have the most fashionable readers on the planet. You don't know how happy it makes me to see people embracing Emma's style. Too often when I'm shopping, I cringe at the sloppy looks I see in windows and on mannequins. Call me old-fashioned, but I love Emma's brand of femininity and put-togetherness. The lovely Dee knows exactly how to channel her inner Emma, in the Hailey Twistneck Dress from "Hello."





Perfection! I love the sweet belt and sparkly gold accents. Dee, you're FABULOUS.

To see more of Dee's incredible style, run - don't walk - to her blog, It's Raining On My Face. She always looks terrific. Thanks, Dee, for sharing your look with WWEPW!

Fashion Challenge - Cashmere Bouquet Cardigan

I'm back from a great girls' weekend away, complete with a Showtunes Singalong night. If you've never attended a Showtunes Singalong, get thee to a local establishment that hosts one ASAP. Our Showtunes Singalong included four Glee songs, which made me very, VERY happy.

Back to the fashion!

The Rhodes Not Taken is a treasure trove of iconic Emma pieces like the military cardi, the sleeveless dress and the red-white-and-blue vintage flower brooch. But it's also filled with gorgeous pieces of which we only get a little glimpse, including the subject of this week's Fashion Challenge!



J.Crew Cotton Cashmere Bouquet Cardigan


What amazing looks can you create around this cardigan?

Cashmere Bouquet Cardigan on Polyvore

Since I'm a little late posting this week's Challenge, you have until Wednesday at 6pm EST to submit your looks. Send them through Polyvore or regular email to emmapillsbury (at) gmail (dot) com!

Fashion Challenge Results - Trampoline Skirt

Emma wears the Trampoline Skirt with a simple white sweater with a Peter Pan collar during The Big Confrontation with Terri. You have paired it with some really amazing things, WWEPWers.

Judging as always, is Rachel from GleeHab. If you haven't bookmarked, followed, or subscribed to her site by now, you must. Rachel has the most amazing collection of Glee news, information, and pictures. I don't know how she does it (I suspect the woman is NYC personified and never sleeps) but her updates are always the first ones out there. Follow @GleeHabSite on Twitter for links to her latest articles!

Joining us this week is the lovely Emma from Gleeklopedia!



Emma has all sorts of gleekery going on at her site! My favorite quote, in her post about the Glee tour: "I will be getting tickets to this if I have to buy them from a scalper for a price so high my Emma Pillsbury shoe budget becomes non-existent." Ha!

Our favorite looks this week:

Amarantine's Look

Emma Pillsbury-tastic! by Amarantine_ featuring Anthropologie skirts

This is Amarantine's first entry and I'm already in love with her style! Loooove the tomato red with this skirt!


Amy B's Look

Trampoline Skirt Challenge by missamyb featuring Forever21 jewelry

Oh, Amy. You're a girl after my own heart. I studied in France when I was in college. Too bad I didn't know about Emma back then or I would have pranced all around that fine country looking like this, instead of looking like a hobo.


Meg's Look

WWEPW: Trampoline Skirt by sweet88star featuring Arden B tops

There is something about a plunging neckline on a sweater with a buttoned-up blouse that I can't refuse. And that necklace? Swoon.

We certainly had a hard time choosing three favorites this week. Check out why:
