As of late I’ve had this renewed energy for fashion and while I don’t consider myself a profound writer, I do like having a place to voice my opinions every now and then.   I’ve been saying that I want to blog more and after spending time reading other “fashion” blogs I realize why I haven’t.

I have about 11 fashion blogs on my list of daily reads. But having been on them frequently during Fashion Week I’ve noticed that all but 3 of them have the same exact content, at the same exact time of day.  It’s as if one major news outlet writes a story and then the blogs read it,  re-write it, and publish it.  And when it comes down to, that’s what 1/2 the blogs really are……plagarized content holders without original thought or opinion.

So this is why I don’t publish posts alot. When it comes down to it, I don’t see the point in just repeating things you can read elsewhere.  I want to impart me own voice in my own space otherwise I don’t see the point.  At the very least blogs provide a stage to have your own voice otherwise you are just as meaningless as a chain email. And we all know how much everyone hates those.

And on a related side note… this is why I like Tavi. For all the controversy that a teenage-fashion-wonderkid can generate, I like to read her blog because she’s quirky, cute, has her own voice, and the time to make collages, which is a luxury you can only afford in your youth when you don’t have to worry about work & bills.

So I ask …..what blogs do you read and how interesting do you think their point of view is? I need to update my list of daily reads.
