Harsharan's Top 10...Fashion Bloggers

10. Will Boehlke asuitablewardrobe.dynend.com

A brilliant antidote to the froth of most online fashion, this San Franciscan gentleman's solemn missives cover the minutiae of traditional menswear, from the right tie to wear to the wedding to the best cloth for a bespoke overcoat.
 
9. Mikael Colville-Andersen copenhagencyclechic.com

 Danish filmmaker Mikael Colville-Andersen, 42, has documented beautiful bikes and riders who deal with the two-pedalled conundrum of looking good yet wearing practical outfits in fine style since starting his blog in 2007.

8. Gabi Gregg youngfatandfabulous.com

Blogs for larger women is the new chic niche following fashion's sudden fascination with girls larger than an autumnal twig.The best is Young Fat and Fabulous by a woman who's 23, from Detroit and a size 20. There's news on plus-size ranges and practical style advice, but it's Gregg's photos and profiles of flabby fashionistas that make it the blog to bookmark.


7. Jessica Morgan and Heather Cocks gofugyourself.celebuzz.com

Morgan and Cocks started Go Fug Yourself in 2004 and have been providing millions of readers with posts which poke fun at celebrity outfits on a daily basis.


6. Joe Sinclair and Katie Mackay whatkatiewore.com

The original challenge was for Mackay, 27, to wear a different outfit every day for a year, with Sinclair, 28, documenting the look, the labels and what they got up to. The blog became so popular (7,000 hits a day) that they couldn't ignore all the messages begging them not to stop once they hit their year deadline last month.


5. David Fischer highsnobiety.com
One of the oldest and the best blogs in the sector is Highsnobiety, which was established in 2005 by Swiss-based Fischer. The original site proved so popular it now has five offshoots and Fischer has had to bring in a couple of editors to help him on HighSnobiety, though he still creates many of the daily posts about products and "lifestyle culture news" himself.


4. Susanna Lau stylebubble.typepad.com

Since she started blogging in 2006, the 26-year-old has shown a real knack for highlighting young designers hovering on the verge of success, and her pleasure in discovering talent makes her breezy blog an accessible read. Her judgment is trusted by the 10,000 people who check her posts each day, and Dazed & Confused has made her commissioning editor of its website.


3. Scott Schuman thesartorialist.blogspot.com

The Sartorialist's street style shots are probably viewed by more people than any others on the web. Since launching the blog in 2005, the 41-year-old New Yorker has been named one of Time magazine's biggest design influences, worked for Burberry, modelled for Gap and published a book.

2. Gary Card garycardiology.blogspot.com

 Gary Card may be a set designer by trade but his photo-heavy blog is a brilliant insider's look at the fashion industry. Currently this 28-year-old Brit is everyone's favourite creative; he's made guitars for Lady Gaga, window displays for Stella McCartney, and set designs for shoots in Vogue and V Magazine.


Fashion has fallen for 13-year-old Gevinson in a big way; the little Chicagoan can also fill you in on what it's like to model for the Rodarte label or grace the cover of Pop magazine. Some "proper" style journalists have expressed disbelief that a child has produced such informed fashion reports.
