Untitled picture- Wow — we’re not sure how we missed this last month, but Above the Law brings news that this lawyer (pictured at left) has changed her profile picture to a more sedate one.  ATL notes that they prefer the former, “mildly inappropriate” pic.  Our thought:  mildly?

- Lots of features on inspiring, successful women this week: Forbes introduces us to the leading ladies of Hollywood, while Inc. (our favorite magazine, incidentally) includes several women in their “30 under 30″ roundup of young entrepreneurs.

- Also lots of thoughts on women in the law this week.  The American Lawyer wonders if the bad economy is good for women lawyers; meanwhile, the WSJ’s Law Blog wonders how to get more women partners.  The American Lawyer also ponders a paradigm shift: the power-lawyer mom, and the stay at home dad.

- Our commenters have been mourning the demise of the old Ann Taylor, but SheFinds likes the new one.  (For our $.02, the  jury is still out.)

- The Chicago Tribune tests four pumps for comfort and style.

- Teri Agins at the WSJ weighs in on when it’s appropriate/acceptable to take a purse to a business meeting.

- Should women be forced to wear high heels as part of a workplace “dress code”?  Jezebel covers the controversy.
