Blogger Bliss



Blogger Bliss
The 4 bloggers you need to know to keep you up to date and ahead of the trends.
Eye Candy
If you are unfamiliar with the works of Tommy Ton then listen up. His pictures are the Alexander McQueen shows of photography; they’re works of art. He’s often found quietly scanning the scene of every major fashion week capturing the street styles they evoke. What sets him apart from other photographers is his focus on details rather than the person themselves. He’s a regular contributor to style.com and GQ as well as a variety of top fashion magazine. Oh, and did I mention he also attended George Brown?  Take a look through his lens at www.jakandjil.com.
Happy Go Wacky
There are fashion leaders and then there is Susanna Lau aka Susie Bubble. Based in London, UK, Bubble is known for her quirky fashion sense, full of colours, patterns, and textures topped off with her signature round sunglasses.  Her blog is a hub for up and coming young designers complimented by informational fashion videos and posts dedicated to personal reflection.  Her eclectic style can be felt throughout all sections of her blog from the crayon colour choices to the odd background design that looks like something a 3 year old might draw. If ever there was a fashion oracle its name would be Susie Bubble. For a look at the next Karl Lagerfeld, go to http://www.stylebubble.co.uk/.
Parisian Chic
Although she no longer calls France home, Garance Dore embodies all that is the French woman, elegant, classic, and that oh so sexy accent. Once known for being the partner of Scott Shuman, The Sartorialist, Garance shines brightly on her own. Follow her search for her passion in the about section takes you on a five part series detailing adventures of being a windsurfing instructor, illustrator, photographer and now blogger. There is an immediate sense of femininity as she incorporates her own hand writing into the fonts and showcases her illustrations accented with watercolours. With these personal touches, the flow of her blog is very intimate and makes you feel as though you are spying on her with permission.
She allows you all access of exclusive interviews with fashion leaders, celebrities and socialites. When not interviewing for her blog she’s photographing. This girl is everywhere, sure she’s at the fashion weeks but she’s also at Cannes, gallery exhibits and opening nights at the opera. Get a peek at her next adventure at http://www.garancedore.fr/en.



Walk Like A Man
If I were to ask you who Leandra Medine was would you know? Not many do, however, most are familiar with her blogger name, The Man Repeller. For those of you still wondering who and what a Man Repeller is, Leandra puts is as “outfitting oneself in a sartorially offensive mode that may result in repelling members of the opposite sex. Such garments include but are not limited to harem pants, boyfriend jeans, overalls, shoulder pads, full length jumpsuits, jewelry that resembles violent weaponry and clogs.” Add the latest luxury heels and an arm full of Dannijo bracelets to the above description to complete most of her posted outfits.
When not repelling men through posts of selfies, she has her readers in stitches with her quick wit and unrivaled ability to make fun of herself. She also prides herself on asking the hard hitting questions such as “How do people in fashion keep their coats on their shoulders?” Just like on the bathroom wall, for a good time visit ww.manrepeller.com.
