Again, Elle Editors on Bloggers, Now Take 2 Sides...

April 07, 2010

Three Elle editors spoke about bloggers, again, on W.F.I.T. radio (by the Fashion Institute of Technology). Two - Both Joe Zee and Anne Slowsky*---I mean Slowey---reiterated tired and old sentiments that really make me further want to shut my glossy covers.

However style director, Kate Lanphear, spoke refreshing words with soul:

"But there's also something beautiful about these fresh voices that can say something that maybe sometimes someone who does have a lot of credibility misses, or they see it through a really fresh eye. I think that's the debate that is going on in our industry full-stop, because we don't want to discredit years and years of experience and hard work and paying your dues and learning about what we do day to day, but there is something really beautiful about all of these really fresh perspectives that come out of the Internet."

Sorry to sound text-speechy, but "duuuurrr."

Fashion is visual and art; thus one of those things up to any and every beholder.

That said I am fully for accolades following proper dues-paying, both in the professional realm and even catwalk show pure fun.

Annnnyway, read more of this mostly old news at The Cut.

*Admittedly bad joke on how Anne might not like the Internet, she's "slow" to it. Eh, maybe I just felt b*tchy.

Bag of the Moment: Miss Selfridge Frill X Floral Clutch

April 07, 2010

miss-selfridge-floral-clutch-purseFloral-printed polyurethane (man-made) bag in a sweet style that's both trendy and really vintage looking. So much so that it could have been made far back enough so we'd know it'll always be in style in the future. (If the plastic would last.)

But hey, it's only $23 (plus UK shipping), so you know you'll at least be cheap & chic with this more unique clutch at any 2010 garden party. ;-)

More details:

Small sized clutch with cross-body strap from Miss Selfridge.
