Three Favourites






http://www.stylescrapbook.com/ Look of the day: 'Palermo'

Andy is an intriguing  freelance stylist who is quite notorious for her fashion blog: 'StyleScrapbook'. Within her many posts are secrets to understanding her sheik style that never ceases to amaze. She updates with her own 'look of the day' inspiring not only fashion but jewellery, shoes, bags, travel and a cool, confident sense of self.

Neely is the fashion blogger behind 'Fashion Toast'. This blog is a huge source of my inspiration sparking from her art of dressing. She creates a world i so eagerly want to become apart of with her designer labels, appearances at fashion shows and the beautiful landscapes during her travel. I like the way she provides short sentences capturing the essence of her experiences whether it be the brooding feeling of 'the last sunset view from' her room 'while starting to pack to go home' or the way she rushes into 'I'm in Florence' illustrating her excitement to be in a 'bloggers paradise'. In Particular she becomes more relatable through her links to where to purchase items that she displays in her looks to make her audiences feel like they can become apart of this world.

Amanda Shadforth is contemporary visual artist and blogger who illustrates through her blog a vast range of styling tips and beautiful photography of fashion. She provides a personal understanding of style trends and her take on contemporary designers, fashion, models and magazines. I think her use of imagery is what inspires me the most- the way she captures the fashion and the emotional attachment she feels towards the industry. 



'Hypebeast' is blog much like a magazine which displays fashion, arts, design and culture. In regards to fashion, the blog shows lookbooks, runway images and specific pieces from collections. 'Hypebeast' provides large images and short paragraphs- an overall clean and sharp presentation linking responders to sites where they can view the items. 












Again, the sharp and clean presentation can be seen in the blog, 'Facehunter' however this blog has a running pattern of large images presented vertically down the page. This feature is very common among fashion blogs, focusing on street fashion. All images are dated and titled but one downside is that no images elaborate on the actual garments themselves e.g. designer or links of where to purchase. 




This blog, 'Who, What, Where' displays images and information much like a magazine- depicting individual garments, there designers and price as well as new trends and lookbooks in a sort of scrapbook fashion.
