It’s no new news that fashion embraces youth, and models continue to start younger and younger. It’s something we’ve just gotten used to and to hear about a 16 or 17 year old walking the runways in Paris and Milan is just as common as a Lindsay Lohan mishap where it was “definitely not her fault.” But it really gets you thinking…what exactly were you doing at this age? Probably not getting photographed by Annie Leibovitz (but if you were, good for you).
Whether it’s a designer, an editor, a blogger, etc…the more people making fashion fun, the better this industry becomes. And in the editors category, no one makes a funny like Harper’s Bazaar‘s Laura Brown. If you’re looking for a good laugh today, then I suggest you look no further…
Now that we’re about a week into August, it means it’s time to enjoy the final days of summer (in Chicago that could even be this weekend), prep for back to school (ah, those were the days) and read all the September issues as they’re released throughout the month. Elle went with Kristen Stewart for their big issue and took quite the literal inspiration from Chanel Fall 2014 for the editorial spread. But it’s not like this whole supermarket theme is anything new…
In just a few days, ChiCityFashion turns 4 (which is 28 in blog years) but because that day isn’t a Thursday and you can only throw it back on a Thursday (unless you flash it back on a Friday and unfortunately I can’t have a Throwback Thursday AND Flashback Friday feature on ChiCityFashion…conflict of interest, really) I thought today would be the perfect day to recap some of my favorite things that happened on CCF in the last four years.
Ready? Let’s do this.
Fashion month is approaching and there’s several pounds worth of paper (known as September issues) to prove it. Between fashion weeks all over the world, Fall merchandise rolling in, and the thickest magazine issues of the year all happening next month, you can’t avoid fashion in September. You just can’t…right, Anna?
