If you’re after our ‘What Impressed Us’ feature, or wondering where it’s got to, it’s now become a part of Rogue’s Lifestyle Blog over at Fashionising.
The move is a part of the major changes we’re implementing to our various fashion and lifestyle initiatives, with quite a few more changes coming soon.
To help the spread of Fashionising we’ve made available custom URLs for the first time.
From here on in members can select an easy-to-remember URL to point there friends towards. This should also be of great use to models and designers look to promote themselves to the industry.
As an example, my own profile can now be found at http://www.fashionising.com/dpd as opposed to the much clunkier http://www.fashionising.com/profile.php?profile=1
Okay, this one is a day late so you’re going to have to excuse us. It was a public holiday yesterday and… who are we kidding. We were finally catching up on sleep after Fashionising’s extensive coverage of L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival. To put it into perspective, the festival is over and we still haven’t got through all the photos we took.
But back to style spy’s best items for the week.
style spy has now received 1041 trend and fashion suggestions, with over 6550 votes having been cast.
The Social Networking Weblog is asking if cliques are the wave of the future. We certainly think so.
It’s been a key element in our development of Fashionising, our social network created for those who love fashion and/or work in the industry. Fashionising is itself a clique, it’s a site built for a community with a niche interesting. But we also realise that fashion is not enough of a commonality - people’s tastes are too different. So we’ve also built individual cliques as a feature into Fashionising. They’re available to those members who have other interests, more specific interests.
To coincide with the preview of Fashionising, Rogue’s Lifestyle Blog has moved homes and now resides at www.fashionising.com/lifestyle/
At the same time, we’ve launched our coverage of the L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival with coverage of the Levante and Jonathan Aston show.
With a quarter of the year almost gone there’s a massive influx of clothing from all the fashion show happenings, so we’re seeing many new trends hit style spy. But what’s impressing our members?
Despite all the submissions since January, the Apple iPhone still can’t be shaken and remains the hottest item out there. The hottest trend remains the Mini-dress trend, and Kate Moss remains our darling.
style spy now has 243 trend spotters, and 1010 items have been suggested. In total it’s recorded 6444 votes.
A preview of our upcoming social fashion network, Fashionising.com, is now online.
Scheduled for full release in April, the current preview is open to registration and features a bevvy of new tools haven’t included in any of our past initiatives. These include;
Of course, we have many more up our sleeve and you can expect to see them before our April launch.
Earlier today style spy received its 1,000th submission.
The thousandth submission were Miu Miu Leather and glitter ballet pumps.
While the second issue of Seventh Sin, also known as the Lingerie Issue, has already seen physical distribution we haven’t quite managed to get the online incarnation up yet.
Rest assured, we are working on it. Truth be known it’s been delayed by our work on Fashionising; but you can expect to see them both next week.
Today we’ve begun experimenting with a new feature in Rogue’s Lifestyle Blog, Daily Desires.
For the time being, and only if we consider the feature as having added value, we’ll be highlighting one fashion or culture item a day in the blog. Of course, the aim isn’t to take away from the blog’s existing content but rather to add to it.
As a part of the content experiment, we’ll be added each item to style spy to see what interaction we can cause between the two initiatives.
First up today is a ruffle skirt from designer Philip Lim.
