EVER?
Christ it is relentlessly irritating. I popped back to look at a few after some time and enough already guys - you can only style a pair of skinny jeans so many ways.
STOP BUYING STUFF*

Kat Got the Cream is unbelievably chippy, isn't she?

Why the need to justify herself on her blog and through comments on someone else's?

She needs to remember the saying - 'Never complain, never explain'.

I like reading fashion blogs. I'd love to have their budget.

As long as it's made clear when they've received a freebie or when a post is sponsored, then I'm happy.

But it does irritate me when bloggers are offended about the fact that some people don't like their tastes.

Is Mrscampbellblackgoing to say the name of her blog so we can have a look at it, unless it has been completely depleted?

AlwaysBeYourself · 05/01/2016 14:04

Deleted even. I love looking at blogs Smile

Just realised, it may be in MN archives if it has been linked to before.

Just bumping to say it looks like WIT is about to do (or is possibly already doing) a major link with Boden as she appears to be modelling for them!

is this her??

princessdave · 13/01/2016 10:43

Yes Wips it's Laura and Petro from Wardrobe Icons

louloubelle2 · 13/01/2016 11:02

WIT has done loads of promo with Boden over the years. Am surprised she's doing it now though with Wardrobe Icons, which is very much designer based, and she rarely wears high street level clothes anymore (that is published anyway). Being cynical, maybe she's going to hook up with their childrens wear side once she has the new baby?

I was sad when Unfancy finished it showed you could have a successful fashion blog without buying stuff all the time.

I find the rampant consumerism of most of them a bit much. I want to know how to look good without spending too much money and without having too much of an impact on the environment. So blogs are useful for a way to bear in mind things to look out for on eBay and in charity shops but it staggers me how much they buy and also seem to keep - DMBL40 often wears stuff she's had a few years but then is constantly buying new things. I'd like a post showing just what her wardrobe looks like because it intrigues me.

The Vivienne Files can be a bit frumpy but I like the whole ethos behind it and find it can give good ideas on how to combine items to get more wear out of them.
