Fashism
I love the diversity that is SXSWi! In addition to promoting Storenvy like crazy, I’ve gotten to meet up on the side with some awesome fashion blogger friends, new and old. I just met the founder of the lovely new site Fashism.com, which I think you guys might really like.
At Fashism, users can upload pictures of outfits — either from home or from a dressing room — and let people vote “hot or not,” plus leave comments. It’s basically like shopping in the real world with the input of friends in the digital world — a pretty fabulous cross-over. When used correctly, it can definitely help answer ye olde “what to wear” question, and I can even imagine sending links to friends to help decide on outfits for upcoming events.
Fashism held an event yesterday afternoon at the local Dress Shop where we all tried on dresses and got our pictures taken. So fun! I wasn’t planning to buy anything, but Pamela from Market Publique picked out this super-sweet one-shoulder dress for me (and paired it perfectly with that taupe belt), and I couldn’t resist. It’s 100% silk, has a perfect above-the-knee tulip skirt and, awesomely, has pockets.
Check out the site and feel free to start voting!

Sounds like an idea that may really take off. After all we’re all continuously scouting people’s clothes for criticism and inspiration.

The dress looks amazing on you, I am so glad you decided to go for it! The color is fantastic with your skin and hair, and really – who can resist a tulip skirt with pockets?!

I love Dress Shop and I really love this pink dress! P.S. Why is it that every time you think you won’t spend a penny you find just the perfect little number? Every time.
