it’s kind of pointless to have so called more “professional” or “established” people or people who use more “professional” or “established” mediums criticizing what is going on. though i totally expect it. but seriously… the only way their professions or mediums or expression became recognized were through paradigm shift times like this, wild west times, times of new ways of doing things. even if you refer to establishment or education, those were also groundbreaking new ways of doing things at some point.

ha cha cha.

Great article, Jennine! From a personal style blogger standpoint, I think we're all battling (friendly competition) to say something different; express ourselves through creative wardrobe experimentation. Many of us are connected and online 24/7...we get Twitter, we're in online communities like IFB and tFS ,and are influencing the ever-evolving concept of social media. Completely agree with Business of Fashion in that indie bloggers and traditional media can learn a lot from each other. Some traditional media outlets are already beginning to leverage indie bloggers for content (fashion glossy's have been featuring style bloggers on their websites and in print). In general, it seems a lot of indie's are afraid of letting in the influence of other media and PR/marketing ppl as their "voice" might get lost in the process. As for the PR/marketing ppl who constantly blast impersonal emails and want to be featured on our sites...do your research! Or at least take the time to learn how to use mail merge (haha). I will almost always respond to someone who crafts an email just for me...almost never to the blasts. Seriously though, bloggers are constantly looking to write about something different...we aren't getting the exclusives so we have a completely different approach to crafting content for our sites than print/broadcast media. Can't wait to see Thursday's post! SYMPHONY!
