Legendary stylist Carlyne Cerf ded Dudzeele was the breakout star of last year's HBO documentary In Vogue: The Editor's Eye. She's outspoken, obsessed with fashion, hilarious, and not afraid to tell it like it is. Any opportunity to watch her do anything is one worth taking advantage of, which is why you must watch this new interview she did for Juicy Couture.

Your personality is the product. And here's how you sell it.

So we say the personal style blogger isn't going anywhere—in fact, she's more powerful than ever.

When attending a show like BCBG Max Azria, you can expect an onslaught of pseudo-celebs, advertising-friendly editors and of course, a whole lot of color blocking. Yesterday's 10am show was no exception. And while the crush of photogs angled for a glimpse of front row showgoers including Giada de Laurentiis, Maria Menounos and Erin Wasson, the beauty of the show was in the delicious details:

Despite the crisp holiday chill finally landing in New York, it was all about the warm weather days at the Ash flagship in Soho last night. The Italian contemporary shoe brand presented their spring 2012 line at a bash hosted by Kelly Framel of the Glamourai and with festive tunes provided by a smokey-eyed Becka Diamond. For those not quite ready to view shoes they can’t buy yet (the Fall 2011 styles are on sale, if you’re wondering), make-up applications, manis and braid and bang styling were also on tap for partiers. Plus in the spirit of the season, guests were encouraged to bring a toy to donate to Jessica Seinfeld’s Baby Buggy charity. Even though we’re finally ready to settle into our winter booties, we headed upstairs to the loft area check out Ash’s spring styles.

Once the provenance of earnest fashion fans on the fringes of the industry, blogs have evolved into legitimate media sources and, more importantly, big moneymakers. Just look at today's WWD story highlighting "hot fashion bloggers" like Bryan Boy and Susie Bubble. The feature goes on to detail how each "hot fashion blogger" makes their money, how many monthly page views their sites get, and presents an important question: "Bloggers sitting front row have become commonplace—as have partnerships with leading brands and fashion houses that often blur the nature of what they do: Reportage and criticism or marketing and promotion?" Whether it's by partnering with brands, styling shoots, receiving payment (or free product) for writing posts or getting commission on the sale of items they post about, some bloggers are seriously cashing in on their influence. Of course, there's nothing wrong with making money. These bloggers work hard, are dedicated to their followers and add a unique voice to the fashion dialogue. "Bloggers produce original content; they have a unique talent [whether it be photographing, styling, writing] and it's obvious," says Karen Robinovitz, co-founder and chief creative office of Digital Brand Architects, an agency that reps "top tier bloggers." "Why would you, for instance, hire any stylist when you can hire just as talented a stylist but one that also has 75,000 followers?" But as blogs make the transition from personal style diary to profit-turning businesses, some readers have begun to feel that original and unbiased content, once the keystone of what made blogs so relevant, has taken a hit.
