I myself am slave to fashion blogging, dedicating my precious time and effort on posting write-ups, collages and snapshots of ladies shoes and bags – from chain-linked Louboutin wedges to gemstone beads accented Cavalli handbags. I have to keep up with the fast changing of trends lest my blog receives but a few hits per day. Many, dare I say unfashionable, snobs fail to see the point of updating online fashion accounts. In my defense, it pays to be on the (constant) lookout and to take cue from top designers and fellow fashion enthusiasts online. By doing so, I get to know the latest in vogue pieces to buy and the freshest fashionable faces to watch out for.
Nothing beats feeling less guilty after skipping out on an ‘it’ bag knowing that you are not alone in thinking that ‘it’ looks hilarious. Take for example that Marc Jacobs Daisy hobo with wholesale beads from early December. It sure did scream hobo – without the chic – and received an awful lot of bad editorial with its introduction to the trendy, hard-to-please market. How about that Ganesh clutch by known be-dazzler Judith Leiber? I knew better than to carry around a very famous Indian deity guised in high-priced, high quality beads. Talk about sacrilege, that clutch sure was talked about – obviously not in a good way – in many Asian countries. And it’s not just bags, there also are hideous shoes that have received many an equally ugly write-up, like the Gian Marco Lorenzi mules embellished with semiprecious beads that could pass as rhinestones. It had the makings of glam evening shoes if not for its ridiculously enormous platform, mirrored at that.
Not to be mistaken for a total snob, I also find comfort in reading about my fellow fashionistas’ raves and take pride in carrying or wearing prized designer accessories that have graced many a fashion blog. A good example would be the Roger Vivier Prisme Clutch encrusted with AAA gemstone beads. You can’t get any more red carpet-worthy with that little bag on hand. Even pap darling Kate Hudson got high marks for carrying this crystal work of wonder, and that’s after too much negative news about her and A-Rod. Talk about redemption. And who can possibly forget Carrie Bradshaw’s blue satin Manolos from SATC the Movie? Its crystal broach detail reads divine and that’s exactly what I read all over the internet.
There’s really more to fashion blogging than plain outmoded eyes can see. Apart from sense of style, you also get a sense of belongingness. See, socially relevant!
