I am going to be concentrating a lot of my blog space on high quality photos taken from fashion websites, magazines, media outlets etc.\u00a0 I definitely want to maintain a minimalistic aesthetic since my personal style reflects classicality and simplicity.\u00a0 I do not want any distracting, bright or busy fonts, but at the same time, I do not want my blog to be boring and void of color.<\/p>\n

I really like http:\/\/nymag.com\/thecut\/<\/a> and how they have laid out their web page.\u00a0 It is a little crowded for my taste once you scroll past the top stories picture slideshow but I do like the color scheme and overall appearance.\u00a0 The Cut is not strictly a fashion blog because they do beauty and lifestyle but I do like a lot of the topics they write about.\u00a0 Every article seems to have a definite purpose to it.\u00a0 I want to mimic this sense of purpose when I sit down to start my own blog.<\/p>\n

Another great blog is http:\/\/www.oliviapalermo.com<\/a> because of her classic and simple approach to fashion and beauty blogging.\u00a0 She has an extremely easy to navigate home page with great, high quality images and sample texts from each post.\u00a0 As I imagine my blog, I picture it being very similar to Olivia Palermo\u2019s in terms of the vibe she gives as well as the clean cut aesthetic.<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.songofstyle.com<\/a> is an awesome fashion blog because it\u2019s a normal person who isn\u2019t afraid of writing about days where yoga pants are definitely more comfortable than a blazer and a skirt.\u00a0 She doesn\u2019t restrict herself to just writing about high fashion.\u00a0 I really like her blog because there are no ads (which bother me a lot and I find very distracting), as well as the fact that she has the most simple layout and design of all the blogs I\u2019ve mentioned.<\/p>\n

I would like to include YouTube videos of runway shows where my blog post is dedicated to critiquing and analyzing designer\u2019s collections.\u00a0 Another idea I had is to do a style steal section where I would take outfits from the high fashion runway and find the same look for a much cheaper price.\u00a0 The final idea I have is to be very aware of trends in multiple designers\u2019 collections and see if I can find any students on campus that are wearing something similar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
