When bad things happen to fashion bloggers
I love a good blogger-partnership / fake friendship. Especially these two. So, how does the "Fancy Fine" "aesthetic" look on "Blushing Ambition"?

Tavi, the Rookie
(What everyone has said about Tavi and/or should of said. From around the web)
When did 15 year-old girls start ‘granny chic’? Why have we decided that one person’s opinion matters more than anyone else’s?
Tavi Gevinson first shot to fame three years ago, when everyone was all like “who’s this 12 year old fashion maven, and why is she getting VIP entry to Fashion Week events?” Tavi Gevinson is cooler than you. Tavi has also gotten into feminism.
Her new project Rookie Mag is a cross between a magazine and a website.Rookie is getting so much attention from adults, who have their own publications to read already. Supposedly Gevinson has gained popularity with her blog, unique sense of style and talking about the 1990s. Despite her age, Gevinson is a connoisseur of ’90s culture, which she didn’t even experience. Fantastic.
I think this should be required reading for everyone entering the 7th grade. The content and design are cute but not cloying.
"What if I never let go of being obsessed with teenagers and become this really pathetic adult who's like, 'Am I hip, you guys?', she confessed to NY Mag.

A blogger's existential crisis
"Blogs are ridiculous; they're just mood boards - unless you are Tavi [Gevinson, of Style Rookie]."Bloggers: is your world shattering?

On growing up with blogs.
Kind of creepy when you can see that a blogger is "evolving." Or, you know, excessively watching reruns of My So Called Life....over and over and over again and just copying what they see.

This is why photographers should never speak.
I've let that February New York Mag piece on lovebird bloggers, Garance Dore and The Sartorialist, linger... but I always come back for a couple reasons.
I admit, two bloggers with similar mission statements and similar aesthetics that start dating, well, yes, what an adorable concept! But there is something so vapid about these two. From one of their many pathetic quotes:
“I was a big fan,” says DorĂ©. “Sometimes when I was looking at Scott’s pictures, I wanted to be with him. I wanted to be on his shoulder.” DorĂ© looks at Schuman with a bit of a blush. “I don’t know if I ever said that to you. But it’s because of the light.”
Their narcissism, that picture, how he has now just sexualized her style and the usual man shaping a woman are all just disgusting. The truth is, he's in love with changing her image. She's in love with him giving her an image. And together they are in love with themselves. Yuck.
