Always in style: The top fashion blogs

To get you started on your search for that perfect online education in fashion and design, here are the top 20 fashion blogs:

  1. Bryanboy: The fierce Bryanboy uses a combination of videos, photos, and insightful text to bring you up-to-the-minute fashion news. Think you need a thorough online education into fashion? This is the blog for you.
  2. GoFugYourself: Clever, humorous, and often tongue-in-cheek, this blog puts an entirely new perspective on fashion. Entries like "Five wacky fashion statements during the Olympics" take you outside the typical fashion spheres, and commentaries on award ceremony fashions show no mercy.
  3. Style Rookie: What could a 15-year-old know about fashion? Apparently a lot! She discusses the difference between bloggers and journalists in a way people four times her age should envy, and even how blogging can give you an entrance into the industry without ever attending fashion design school. Oh yeah, and she discusses fashion too.
  4. I'm Not Obsessed: Want to dress like a celebrity without spending an absolute fortune? This blog can teach you how. Interviews with celebrities and the latest gossip are also included.
  5. Style in Spades: Quirky, original, and honest about her views on fashion, a young woman in the Netherlands takes us from stylish Oscar dresses to the downright bizarre fashions that sometimes grace the runways.
  6. Vogue: Vogue is always the final word in fashion, and this blog is no exception. It takes an unflinching look at fashion (especially at those fashions that make you want to flinch!).
  7. Style List: A variety of bloggers contribute to this site, offering several opinions on fashion instead of just one. Interviews with fashion experts and videos with helpful style tips also fill the site.
  8. Fashionista: From fashion show and award season round-ups to close-up looks at specific designers, this fashion blog covers every aspect of the industry a budding fashion design school student, or anyone else for that matter, could want.
  9. On the Runway Blog: Affiliated with the New York Times, this site provides reviews of all the latest fashions and shows (complete with video clips), and offers helpful links to information about specific designers.
  10. The Sartorialist: A look at real "on the street" fashion you could see every day. Want to know how to copy it? You can learn how at this site too.
  11. The Cut: Humorous and informative, what more could you what in a fashion blog? Reports of the latest gossip are interspersed with tips so valuable you don't even need to complete a fashion degree program to copy them.
  12. Fab Sugar: While some blogs have more photos than text, this one offers a nice blend of both, and takes a unique look into the fashion world with posts like "10 Alice in Wonderland-Inspired Pieces" and "The Craziest of Crazy Shapewear."
  13. Threadbanger: Each day of the week offers tutorials on different subjects, such as "How to Customize Your Closet" on Fridays and "The most inspiring DIY fashion news and events" on Thursdays.
  14. Huff Post Style: Thanks to its association with the Huffington Post, this blog gets great interviews with top fashion designers along with posts on fashion shows, celebrity style, and even (could it be?) where to get affordable wedding dresses in New York City.
  15. Show Studio: Links to videos of the hottest fashion shows and interviews with designers give you an education and fresh look at fashion to rival any fashion degree program.
  16. Focus On Style Blog: The site has it all--live streaming fashion shows, movie-inspired fashion tips, and posts about the fashion world like the current collaboration between Gautier and Target.
  17. Celebrity Fashion Tips: Do you enjoy seeing how celebrities influence the fashion world? Then this is the blog for you, with its look into celebrity fashion and even tips on how to get look-alikes in your price range.
  18. Style File: The posts on this site get split into helpful categories like "Trend Tracking," although a few categories step outside the fashion world to look closer at pop culture and celebrity or fashion gossip, like "Social Intelligence" and "Dept. of Culture."
  19. Daily Front Row: Get a glimpse into the lives and styles of the icons of the haut couture world with interviews, reviews, and more.
  20. Slaves to Fashion: Glamour extends the popular fashion news and advice in its magazine to this daily blog.

Go enjoy, and get started on your online fashion education today!
