Fashion Blogs Directory
Read fashion blogs from around the world — the leading blogs, listed and described.
Before you can read fashion blogs, you have to find them. This fashion blog directory helps you find a wide assortment of blogs about fashion: the best-known names, certainly, but also blogs that are not yet the most popular — part of a directory's job is discovery, not just confirmation.
If you are sophisticated and chic, with a passion for fashion, style and beauty, reading fashion blogs is for you. With a focus on clothing and lifestyle, as well as top brands and labels, the fashionistas below are always hunting trends, emerging designers, quality products, designer bargains and fabulous discounts. Reading them is a practical way to find stylish clothing, shoes, handbags, fragrances, jewelry and accessories. And one standing challenge from this page: you can probably write as well as most of them — learn to create a fashion blog (the Write Fashion Blogs guide in the resources above shows how) and prove it. The section's parent page, Fashion Blogs, introduces the whole topic.

Fashion Blogs Directory
Below are leading style-relevant resources, each described the way its readers know it. Blogs change hands and directions over time; the descriptions record what made each one worth listing.

More than where to get great clothes: the supporting blog offers a glimpse of how we came to wear what we wear today, and how music is interwoven with fashion — for trend setters and trend followers alike.
The Budget Fashionista

Jane Hamill
Jane Hamill is a former fashion designer now helping designers on the business side — taking designs from idea to sales. Her blog covers everything from time management to practical tips on getting a line into stores and increasing sales; designer-readers will also recognize the world of the fashion incubator in her advice.
A Lucky Life
The official blog from Lucky Brand — an example of a brand publishing its own fashion blog rather than only advertising on others.
Michael 84
A men's fashion and lifestyle blog from Newcastle in the UK, mainly focusing on streetwear and high-street fashion for men.

Not Without My Heels
Rachelle Yadegar — fashion designer, stylist and blogger — balances the pizzazz of two cities with her own modest personal style, drawing on deep professional experience in the fashion world.
Organic Clothing
All about organic, natural and sustainable clothing and eco-fashion — a niche blog serving the sustainability-minded reader.
Pink Mirage
A shoe blog from the west coast of the United States — a single-category blog, and a reminder that footwear alone can sustain years of writing.
Purse Blog
The designer handbag blog — news, reviews and discussion devoted to handbags, the accessory category that built one of blogging's strongest niches.
StealThisDress.com
Started in early 2009 to help women get the most from a fashion and beauty budget. Its splurge-and-steal philosophy sorts out what to pay a lot for and what not to, with product reviews and budget-friendly how-to guides for celebrity- and couture-inspired outfits.
Style Bubble
A well-written style blog from an interesting author — personal, curious and long-running, the kind of independent voice directories exist to surface.
The It Lists
Helps busy women define their personal beauty, life and fashion style — the must-haves, it lists and trends in colors and styles from magazine pages, runways and the internet, in a community where being in style is fun rather than pretentious.
Networks & the Apparel Search Blog Family
Some listings are networks rather than single blogs: Glam Media grew into one of the fastest-growing women's fashion and entertainment web networks, with a network of independent fashion sites alongside its own. Networks matter in a directory because one listing can lead to dozens of blogs.
Apparel Search's own family belongs in its own directory: the Apparel Search fashion blog (also reachable as blog.apparelsearch.com without the trailing slash), Fashion Salad — a mix of everything fashion, where fashionistas can post their own topics — its companion listing as the Fashion Salad Blog, the team's blog about fashion on Blogspot, Fashionista News, the Fashion Blogger site, the Runway Fashion Blog and the Style Blog. Together they show the range a single publisher can cover: news, runway, general fashion and style.
Using This Directory
Work through the list by interest rather than fame. A reader who loves handbags should start at Purse Blog; a designer building a business should start at Jane Hamill; a bargain hunter at The Budget Fashionista or StealThisDress. Directories reward readers who treat them as maps. They also sit inside a wider education mission — this site exists to educate about the industry, which is why the directory explains each blog instead of merely linking it, and why the fashionista definition and the fashion association directory are natural companions. The people behind all of these blogs are profiled in the fashion bloggers guide.

Common Questions
What is a fashion blog directory?
A directory is an edited list: blogs a person has actually reviewed, organized and described, rather than raw search results. This directory includes the best-known fashion blogs, but also others that are not yet the most popular and are worth discovering early.
What kinds of blogs are listed here?
Personal style blogs, shopping and budget blogs, a fashion photography blog, a designer-business blog, an organic clothing blog, a handbag blog, a shoe blog and brand blogs — the full range of what fashion blogging became, from one-writer diaries to small publications.
Can I write a blog as good as these?
That is the right ambition, and the directory is a fair benchmark: read the listed blogs closely, note what each does best, then use the how-to guides in the resources above to start your own. Many listed blogs began as one person writing about what they wore.
