Last week, we were awarded the Brillante Weblog Premio 2008 by the brilliant Kari at
Fabulous Over 40. I was so beside myself with the honor that I was actually at a loss for words…and that’s très rare I assure you.
It goes without saying that I love to read Kari’s beauty reviews. Although the site is geared towards women 40+ her posts are valuable to any girl looking for unbiased opinions and sensible advice.
I could award every single blog on our roll, but I’d like to take this opportunity to highlight seven of my favorite bloggers (in alphabetical order):
Apricot Tea: Here’s a relative newcomer to my list of faves. The site isn’t all fashion 24/7, which is a good thing because AT’s musings are always so heartfelt and thought provoking. She is just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside.
Beauty and The Street: beezie and taylor are a couple of stylish young ladies that seem to have their pulse on all the hot new trends. What I love best about their commentary is that they post topics that not every blogger in the universe is covering so I feel like I’m getting fresh scoop.
Fashion Herald: FH covers the Herald Square shopping district of NYC, home to Macy’s, Sephora, Victoria’s Secret, and moi. I love living vicariously through all of her expeditions, and although we’re neighbors and haven’t met, I suspect she is way too cool to hang out with the likes of me.
Hi Styley: This blog centers around Los Angeles fashionistas and I can’t help but sigh and miss L.A. every time I gaze upon it’s stylish denizens.
Little Molly Cake: I adore her style and her sense of humor is priceless. I never fail to laugh out loud while reading and I usually find something that I want to own right now.
Ogni Cosa Bella e Viola: This is a blog that I came across recently and I just love it. I consider it my ears and eyes on the chic streets of Italy.
Shoppings My Cardio: It’s no secret that this site is a big fave of mine. Becki is not only a wonderful writer, a sales sleuth extraordinaire, but also a totally cool person that I would love to have coffee with…if only she weren’t 3,000 miles away.
Our next stop in the style universe takes us to Los Angeles where Ev'Yan, better known as Apricot Tea to her blogging buds, proves that understated elegance doesn’t have to mean classic and dull. She describes herself as frugal, old-fashioned and fashion-oriented. We say she gives the notion of thrift a much-needed update: from sensible to sensational.
