Shopping

Fashion Democracy

gwynethpaltrowbluecultjeans.jpgDoes anyone remember that website, Hot or Not? Actually, it still exists but there was a moment years back that it was the go-to procrastination website du jour. It was as simple as its name.

There are now many style networking sites that offer a similar forum for voting on outfits and fashion choices. One of those, Fashism, is now hosting a live and in-person event at the very lovely Inven.Tory boutique this Saturday from 12-6 pm. Here’s the deal: you come in, try on some goods, pose for pictures and then the site’s staff (and online viewers) will vote on who looks best. Winners get a gift certificate for the store.

Sounds like an easy way to score some free goods simply by going shopping and working your personal style skills. (And yes, that’s a very old Gwyneth pic. It happens to be one of my all-time faves and in my opinion, very personal style appropriate.)

Love that pic! I so remember reading when she bought those Blue Cult jeans and put the brand on the map.

When I went through my Gwyneth obsessing phase, I convinced my friend to grow out her hair, get the black shirt, the jeans, belt, brooch, shoes and Rolex.

She did everything except color her hair.


I like this pic better

Hot or Not brings back Uni memories. Thanks :)
Though I'm not as fond of Gwyneth, I do love her style.
