babes in styleland



about a few months ago, my friend sent me this link: http://seaofshoes.typepad.com/ yes, another fashion blog. this one intrigued me, it sparked the jealous cord in me and ignited it into a frenzy where i wanted to be younger, richer and in the know. i started to look at her photographs, read her words and hear her smile. i applauded her photos; which range from family members, photo shoots, fashion and designers, her need to expel what designer she was wearing or coveting makes me feel like i already know her and her make shift into the fashion world by being a shoe designer herself at 18 is amazing to me. merde!, i was about to have a baby at 18!

and then i was introduced to this little lady: http://tavi-thenewgirlintown.blogspot.com/
i read a short blurb on her in the latest Fashion Magazine. it wasn't until now that i actually checked her out. she's getting millions of hits, sitting front row at highlighted fashion shows in paris, (jealous?) milan, new york and so on. and she is 13! i am predicting that she will be bigger than miss anna wintour.

i am embracing the style of fashion blogging. it's immediate and can connect you almost instantaneously to another site of interest or purchase depending on your internet connection. but i still do enjoy leafing through a magazine with a hot cup of earl grey, legs up and relaxed to voyeur next season's styles and to boycot the trends.

  1. yes..if only we were richer, we too could have photoshoots with our many many shoes and designer items.
    it's funny because there are mixed reviews about that young tavi on the blogosphere. most recently, her being at a dior show (front row!) and wearing a huge bow hat that obscured many people's view....those individuals took to twitter to hash out their frustrations.

  2. her head gear is extreme, she's 13, she's allowed.
