Street Style Blogs are Trying to Kill Fashion Magazines

Page 1

It seems that today, magazines are nothing more than items in a newsstand collecting dusts as street style blogs are being viewed by the millions all over the world – some of them are even turned to international bestselling books. We can’t deny it that things are changing and most of the things that we see today that are tangible have been turned to their digital counterpart for free consumption. Street style blogs, believe it or not, started only as a hobby for most people. Blogs are free to be viewed and as more views a blog gets, the more opportunity it has for advertising and there is no need to ever charging the readers. Magazines of course have a lot of costs, from models to photographers and other staffs that works to keep the magazine alive and number one. These magazines aren’t free and people still need to buy them despite the many advertisements available on the pages of the magazines. People are economical nowadays especially with the sudden decline of the global economy initiated by the United States. It has a domino effect that left a lot of us shocked and cutting coupons to save money when grocery shopping. Websites like online magazines have also emerged aside from street style blogs that seem to be very popular today. The demand for something tangible and to flip through pages seemed to decline and more people are tuning in online for free information and fashion tips. We all want to save money and through street style we can, as this form of fashion doesn’t bother too much with designer labels. It is actually more encouraged to scour through flea markets than buy from expensive boutiques. Dressing up can also give you the opportunity to get free items like handbags and shoes.
