Webzines mentioned in The NY Times

I came across The Business of Fashion blog today with the title that they’ve just been recently featured and quoted in today’s NY Times fashion article “Where The Fashionistas Go For A Quick Fix“. But that’s not the only exciting part, a few other well-established webzines have been mentioned, including:

• Gloss Magazine - which I used to write for (is it too hopeful of me to say that perhaps Mr. Amed or Ms. La Ferla saw my blog and that I wrote for them?)
• Fashion156.com – in which Susie Bubble regularly contributes…on a side note I got contacted by them but had to turn them down.
• Unvogue.com – Well-talked about by Malcolm Sirrah on his blog Cut, Sew & Blog/Change
• Glam.com – I think anyone who owns a fashion blog or site has been contacted by them
• Iconique – my first fashion webzine experience, gorgeous as always
• Net-a-porter - the famed luxury website where you can buy RTW

If you’ve bared with me since the early days of this blog, I’ve rarely plugged myself in other media besides Gloss Magazine, probably because I’m perhaps a little too modest to mention. I’ve been contacted by an array of people including budding new designers (local and national), writing for fashion companies, invited to fashion events and even (heartbreakingly) missed an opportunity to be interviewed by the BBC….THE BBC. Yes, I had to kick my own behind for missing out on that one.

I find this is such an exciting time to write for a fashion webzine or blog as they are gaining more and more media attention from, well, traditional and online media. That somehow, in this huge network of fashion sites, any time one of our “own” is selected to be covered by the big media groups or picked up by major sites, I find it such an honor and happy for others who get to shine and recognized for what they do.

So I just wanted to say a huge congratulations to everyone who really work in keeping the fashion buzz online alive
