It's really inspiring to see, possibly because everything you have said is part of why I started my blog. <br />Growing up in a tiny country town I was pissed off there were never any interesting magazines around to read, and so I started publishing my own using a borrowed photocopier. I had no idea there were great swathes of other people doing the same thing elsewhere, or that I was part of "zine" culture. I just wanted something interesting to read. It's nice to see that kind of enthusiasm translating to the digital medium :)ReluctantFemmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03764300825696007123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6359847749721134501.post-86817112186708913952010-05-15T14:37:39.501-04:002010-05-15T14:37:39.501-04:00So....

Goode and I'm lo...I found your blog via Andi B. Goode and I'm looking forward to your other posts! I've had many of the same feelings when perusing other fashion sites... I'm glad to know that there is a growing and supportive community of people who think fashion, thoughtfulness and feminism can all go hand in hand. I've been meaning to write a few things on my thoughts re: being an Asian American woman who is interested in vintage fashion and American social history -- and the conflicting feelings it sometimes brings up -- on my own blog, but am still thinking of the right way to present these entries, since most of my content is now just outfit photos and pictures of things I find pretty. <br /><br />"But where was the commentary? Where was that personal, political touch I love? Are these blogs really a new place for young women to develop their opinions and ideas about fashion?"<br /><br />I wonder if one of the reasons people are reluctant to do that is because they feel they are already making themselves vulnerable by putting up photos of themselves on their blogs? My sense from reading many style blogs is that their creators got a lot of crap for their style when they were growing up, or still do -- what seems normal in the blogosphere might make them a target of abuse in the "real world." Their participation in the blogging community is therefore a way of creating a "safe haven" and they might be unwilling to say anything that might put off readers. I've noticed that some bloggers are a lot more candid in the comments they leave on other sites, where perhaps they feel less exposed. <br /><br />I'm speaking from experience... I've only been updating my style blog, The Renegade Bean, regularly for two months, and I'm still trying to find a voice for it, whereupon I've always been a lot more outspoken and opinionated on ShuFlies, my blog about life as a Taiwanese-American expat in Taiwan.Catherine Shuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06759711296632260503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6359847749721134501.post-20201490013914933112009-10-16T23:03:53.111-04:002009-10-16T23:03:53.111-04:00Allelujiah!

The whole vintage-dressers community are SO friendly and inclusive. Andi, Solanah, Casey, a million others. I was inspired by them in the first place and naturally wanted to join their throngs. :) I have never followed runways or fashion magazines because their images don't appeal to me, not like a picture of Ingrid Bergman or a college girl in the 40s does.<br /><br />I look forward to reading more!<br /><br />I think you would really like 'Gertie's new blog for better sewing'.

Blogger is still a new friend to me and I have trouble writing anything of substance due to the much larger (and unlocked) crowd of eyes it fetches. I don't really know what I'm doing with a blog to be frank! But I have no doubt reading a blog as open and honest as yours has been/will continue to be an inspiration to adding words to my own bubble of nonsense. So I thank you (and your wonderful armpits, friend) in advance. xoxhannah and landonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09169869110400754265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6359847749721134501.post-36387213343903011122009-10-16T04:41:53.577-04:002009-10-16T04:41:53.577-04:00Hi there, ive just come over from Andi's blog....Hi there, ive just come over from Andi's blog. You sound really interesting, and you certainly seem to think about things alot (well alot more than me anyway). I think the reason I look at 'real girls' blogs is because when I look at fashion mags and see size 6 models wearing something how are you meant to know what it would look like on a size 8+ size. And also I could/wouldn't buy designer stuff, and reading others blogs you have people wearing affordable, unique, inspirational clothes with normal girls wearing them. For example since ive been blogging ive been completely inspired by blogs such as Andi's and fallen for vintage looks, stories, outfits.<br />I completely agree that theres those teenagers whose blogs are filled with clothes from their parents $, and then they visit your blog and say 'looks good' and leave their link...thats it, just because they want you to visit their blog.<br />Anyhow, im probably carrying on a bit now, sooo welcome to blogland and im looking forward to hearing more from you. Im vegan so looking forward to seeing your article on wearing fur/leather for vegans!<br /><br />Rose :)Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13802067073824181201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6359847749721134501.post-85004510457137580662009-10-15T09:37:38.466-04:002009-10-15T09:37:38.466-04:00and andi! i still have to send you some resources,...and andi! i still have to send you some resources, even though i think your paper deadline has passed. sorry!<br /><br />however i definitely want to make a post on vintage fashion and the interesting network of intelligent young women on the internet who share their outfits, tips and tricks on the internet. i will definitely be asking you a bunch of questions when i write that!<br /><br />i think the thing i enjoy most about writing online, is that i can look back in my archives and see how my opinions have changed or evolved. don't worry about contradicting yourself too much.julia aka garconnierehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10071915180423432468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6359847749721134501.post-79431732861041524172009-10-15T09:35:06.742-04:002009-10-15T09:35:06.742-04:00skank-all-day: thanks! i've been thinking abou...skank-all-day: thanks! i've been thinking about starting this blog up for almost a year now, so i've had time to think out in detail what i wanted it to be... writing out my ideas really helped me figure out how to post things in here. <br /><br />and i really agree with you about the comments on body vs. fashion choices. i stopped posting for a good year after one of my posts garnered more comments about my body than my clothes... it could be interesting to try and unpack that idea, of the connections/disconnect between bodies/fashion. i'm glad you raised that point.julia aka garconnierehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10071915180423432468noreply@blogger.com
