fashion forward.

i'm going to frame this post around something i'm pretty familiar with, and what a good amount of my time on blogger is spent doing--style blogging.

it may seem a little silly at first, but blogging is a great way for those interested in fashion to connect and share ideas, inspiration, and thoughts on anything new coming down the runways.

most of the posts generally consist of a combination of text and images, with the images being the focus of each entry. the blog posters typically include things like photos that inspire them (like this one from sea of shoes):



or feature outfits assembled by the posters themselves (like this one from karla's closet):



style blogging has really picked up momentum and with magazines like teen vogue and glamour featuring stories on it, will likely continue to rise in popularity. it gives people from all over the world and of all ages a place to discuss something that interests them and that they deal with every day--fashion.

one of my favorites to read is a blog called style rookie. it's written by a 12-year-old girl named tavi, and she puts together some of the craziest and most interesting get-ups. here she is (she's adorable!):



young creativity at its finest.

this social phenomenon is great way for people to connect and gives those who don't live in fashion capitals like new york or l.a. a chance to take part in the world of fashion innovation. it's particularly useful for anyone interested in diy fashion (such as myself) since many of the bloggers are extremely creative with the shapes and combinations they create.

overall, i think the future is bright for style blogging, and i think it will continue to garner attention as the fashion world becomes less about trends and more about innovation.
