I think that they are two different beasts.

I do think blogs will continue to gain traction and sway as they evolve and mature. But magazines will stay around for the near future since people still like to "hold and touch" and look at the editorials.

But as a blogger I do spend more time on blogs and subsribe to many more blogs than I do mags.

yeah.. I have to agree with you there.. the magazines aren’t really up to date anymore.. by the time the magazines come out the news are already old news..

I have to agree with you to a certain extent. I must admit that after seeing picture after picture of Carrie’s big floral red dress, I got sick of it…And when those pics appear in US weekly a week later (and Harper’s Bazaar in about 2 months) Ill be even more annoyed. However, there is something to be said about flipping through a magazine. It is something tanglible that bloga cannot provide. I usually take a couple of days to finish a magazine, looking over ads, reading editorials- its a whole experience. Whereas a blog is read through and done with in a matter of minutes…interesting to see where blogs will go (esp the fashion celeb ones) in another few years…great post!

I’m with miss shoo, i think magazine & editorial content feed blogs. When I want to see the day by day fashion week coverage I look to blogs, when I went to see all the overall looks catagorized into trend/shape/color etc. I go to the magazines.
