Metropolitan Pavillon in NYC is hosting its annual Vintage Clothing Show this weekend, composed of an astounding 90 different vendors. The collections fuse ‘80s funk with Victorian class, sprinkling garments with a bit of seduction from the ‘40s. And since estrogen tells us one can never have enough LBD’s, the epic vintage affair is displaying a special exhibit on the transient wardrobe staple. The show begins Friday, February 5th (1pm-8pm) and continues on Saturday, February 6th (11am-6pm). It is not limited to women’s apparel, so bring your guy along! The selection is sure to tempt both sexes (of which you can read more about here).

IFB Blogger Spotlight

by

This past week I was honored to be nominated by some fabulous fellow bloggers for the Independent Fashion Bloggers Spotlight of the Week

Thanks to everyone for your support, and here’s the post!

This week’s Blogger Spotlight goes to the darling Fashion Pulse Daily
Julia from Fashion Pulse Daily got an overwhelming vote this week…and rightly so, this blog is full of handy real life fashion tips and the lovely lady behind it has to be one of the nicest people in real life (and online) it’s such a pleasure to present this week’s Blogger Spotlight!

Nominated by: Ashe Mischief , RetroChick, Dream Sequins, Dozen Dresses , Adventures in Fashion and Nookie

Why did you start blogging?
I originally came from a print background, and as I began writing more and more for online, I became completely enamored with the style, the voice, the personal touch that came along with blogging. There is no other experience like it, and I love that each day is a fresh start, with new content and ideas that can also be seamlessly updated at a moment’s notice – a HUGE advantage over print!

What is most inspirational for you when blogging?
I really think that meeting other creative entrepreneurs, from indie designers to fellow bloggers, and exploring the new online frontier and powerful tool of social media fuels my enthusiasm. I love finding new angles to bring to features, and the freedom that comes with blogging is unparalleled to anywhere else in the publishing industry.

Plus, I feel that the online blogging community is WAY more supportive and understanding of each other, a rarity, especially in fashion!

Describe the type of man or woman who would love Fashion Pulse Daily…
The readers are predominantly female, and my Dad keeps begging me to do more men’s fashion-related posts, so I’m sure that will be down the pipeline. The reader who would love Fashion Pulse Daily is someone who would like to use FPD daily as a resource as well as an inspiration for themselves. The site covers the latest breaking news in fashion and beauty, but also features eco-friendly items, gives shopping and styling tips, while frequently injecting a sense of humor and raising questions that provoke the viewer to think about and respond. I love the reader interaction on the site, because after all, where would I be without them?
