3 other fashion blogs, lets look Nordic.

Our first task is to look at 3 other fashion blogs and summarise, and as I am a regular reader of Nordic fashion blogs because they are just generally brilliant, I thought this is where I would look.

My all time, favourite, number 1 fashion blog is Outsapop. The summation of this blog is basically, it's all types of wonderful. Being a fashion student, I am easily drawn to DIY. Outi, the blogs author posts pictures of couture fashion designers work and shows the reader how to make it their own. Outsapop is not your craftsy-DIY site. It's contemporary, it's has the Finnish clean styled decadence without any hint of Nana's knitting patterns or Martha Stewart. The great ideas she posts are coupled by polished photography and and great links to other sites. Outsapop will have you seeing home hardware in a new light.

I am a massive fan of street style blogs, and Swedish blog Stockholm Street Style is a great insight to what the beautiful Swedes are wearing on the streets. This a mostly a photographic documentary style blog. The photography of such a high standard, and the street walking Swedes that look like models and topped off by the beautiful garments worn by said model-like Swedes does lead one to question if it has all been staged. Are they really models? Did a stylist select such an immaculate ensemble? Whatever the story is, one can only aspire to look that amazing walking down any street, be it Stockholm or Sydney.

Clear, concise. I love the way Style by King selects the best of the runway shows and posts the images of her favourite pieces from any said collection and shares with her followers. But I mostly love the balance of written content to pictures, a few sentences accompanied by beautiful, large photographs.
Style by King is flooded with advertising though, but this is just evidence of the popularity of the blog, I guess if "Geuss" is advertising with you, you are doing something right.
