This week went so quickly! I needed another day to get all my stuff done, I feel like. Maybe I just need a clone. While we consider the usefulness of clones, please enjoy the following:

\-- Per Smithsonian, [Mr. Darcy’s Wet Shirt is Coming to the United States.](https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/mr-darcys-wet-shirt-coming-united-states-180958367/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io#F3rMDuyf3RDmiuyU.99https://) FIELD TRIP!

\-- The BBC had [an in-depth look at the only thing I've ever truly loved: the Breton-striped shirt](https://www.bbc.com/culture/story/20160309-the-ultimate-symbol-of-french-cool?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).

\--[I'm obsessed with this look at how people are still playing chess by mail,](https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/the-strategic-penpals-who-play-chess-by-mail?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) over at Atlas Obscura. (Don't you feel like you've read a variety of books over the years where SOMEONE is playing chess by mail?) It is fascinating.

\-- Over at All Things Georgian,[ a look at the big hair of the 70s. The 1770s](https://georgianera.wordpress.com/2016/03/08/sweet-dreams-meddlesome-mice-and-1770s-big-hair/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).

\-- I am very perplexed by the fact that [Selma Blair is apparently dating David Foster now](https://www.laineygossip.com/Selma-Blair-and-David-Foster-spotted-on-a-dinner-date-together-at-Craigs-in-Los-Angeles/43270?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)? (Lainey)

\-- *People* brings us [a look at every wedding gown on *Downton Abbey.*](https://www.peoplestylewatch.com/downton-abbey-wedding-gown-photos?xid=socialflow%5Ftwitter%5Fpeoplestyle&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io#2016/03/07/photo/mary-1-downton-weddings-style-gallery-3203301)

\-- At Collectors Weekly,[ an interesting look indeed at the history of perfume.](https://www.collectorsweekly.com/articles/our-pungent-history/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

\-- This week, [Racked brings us this very interesting read about Isaac Mizrahi.](https://www.racked.com/2016/3/10/11183334/isaac-mizrahi-target-qvc?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

\-- Buzzfeed brings us [24 of Whitley Gilbert's most iconic lines.](https://www.buzzfeed.com/sylviaobell/whitley-gilbert-forever?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io#.vrLm1OKLg) I cannot tell you how much I loved Whitley Gilbert when I was a girl. VERY much. The outfits in these screengrabs are also AMAZING. WHAT IS DWAYNE WAYNE EVEN WEARING. (I love you, Dwayne.)

\-- Bless our friend Sally Holmes at *Elle,* who wore [a whole post that's just hot dudes in shorts.](https://www.elle.com/culture/celebrities/g27977/celeb-man-legs/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) YOU UNDERSTAND ME, SALLY.

\-- This is[ an interesting interview at The New Potato with astrologer Susan Miller](https://www.thenewpotato.com/2016/03/09/susan-miller-2016/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), although I...have notes on some of what she says.

\-- This is interesting but ultimately really sad and concerning: [The Washington Post caught up with US figure-skater Debi Thomas, and things have not gone well for her.](https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/social-issues/the-mystery-of-why-the-best-african-american-figure-skater-in-history-went-bankrupt-and-lives-in-a-trailer/2016/02/25/a191972c-ce99-11e5-abc9-ea152f0b9561%5Fstory.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) (I LOVED Debi Thomas. I was so nervous when she skated at the Olympics that I literally had to leave the room. I went upstairs and paced around my bedroom.)

\-- At Celebitchy: [Helen Mirren is the best.](https://www.celebitchy.com/475247/helen%5Fmirren%5Fkisses%5Fstephen%5Fcolbert%5Frenders%5Fhim%5Fspeechless%5Fadorable/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)
