When we began last March, we didn't know how long we'd keep up the blog. We figured we'd write until we felt like we had run out of things to add to the conversation. We're stepping away now because we feel like we've shared just about everything we have to contribute to the online style blog community. We look forward to keeping up with those of you who maintain your own blogs and we are confident that the thoughtful style blogging conversation is in very capable hands despite our departure.
For our final post, we put together some of our most popular, memorable, and favorite posts over the past 9 months. We hope this will serve as a fun reminder to our longtime readers, encourage our newer readers to click back through the archives, and give future readers who stumble across our blog a good point of entry for navigating our ideas.

Wardrobe Workhorse Week
In September, we hosted a collaborative blog project to celebrate the items in our closets that we wear most frequently. You can see the introductory post here, the wrap-up post and list of participants here, and all of our own posts here.
Thanks again, everybody, for reading along and sharing your ideas. If you're finding us for the first time sometime in the future, we hope you'll still feel free to join the conversation! At some point our url will bounce back to www.scholarstyleguide.blogspot.com, but we're happy to leave these nine months and many, many interesting conversations out there on the internet for us and our readers to consult in the future.
