Ah, Youth and The Fashion Blogs

Is this the new Tavi? 

Plastic Barrettes's adorable 13 year old blogger Bella at yesterday's IFB conference. She asked multiple questions. Had notebook, video, photo camera in hand. Drew "awwwww's" when she mentioned her age and blog's name. 

Not only does she really, REALLY look the part, but she seems intelligent, informed and passionate about fashion and fashion blogging.

Way to go, kiddo!

Proenza Schouler Designers Keynote Speakers at IFB Blogging Conference

This Independent Fashion Bloggers' conference is turning into a Fashion Week extravaganza:



Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez, the geniuses behind Proenza Schouler, will be the main and major speakers during this coming Fashion Week's blogging conference at Milk studios in NYC (February 10-11, 2011).

Past conferences have included panel discussions with veteran fashion bloggers Susie Bubble, BrianBoy and Tavi, whose youth and insightful posts, to say nothing of her eclectic style, runway-impeding bow hats and collaboration with Jane Pratt, have put her on the fashion world's map.

This conference will also feature workshops, panels and talks by Refinery29, Pretty Shiny Sparkly and Rachna Shah of PR/Production firm KCD.

Stay tuned. I'll be there.

Will YOU?!
