Has it changed the way people write, report, and think about fashion?\n__NH:__Blogs have really changed the pace at which we get our information, which in turn has changed who gives which information appropriately to the public. It&amp;#39;s also sort of made a place for the ephemeral information that would be really hard for traditional media outlets to cover, but that blogs can sort of cull into fun posts, or just post randomly. That way, the discussion about fashion (though this I&amp;#39;m sure holds true for blogs that cover all kinds of topics), has widened a lot, which is great for people who like that constant stream of information. Also, I feel like I&amp;#39;ve noticed a lot more personal observations in traditional media stories. For example, giving more detailed descriptions of who exactly was at an event, who hung out with who, who wore what, what the general feel was, etc. First-hand articles feel more experiential now, and I wonder if the &amp;quot;I was there&amp;quot; feel of blogs has had to do with it.\n\n\n\nSTF: Who would you most love to see have a blog that doesn&amp;#39;t yet? *\nNH: In terms of people in the fashion industry, I&amp;#39;d love to see a blog from Katie Grand right now, that way we could know all about Love! [EDITOR&amp;#39;S NOTE: KATIE GRAND IS A BRILLIANT STYLIST, FORMERLY OF POP MAGAZINE, WHO IS STARTING A NEW GLOSSY MAG CALLED LOVE!] Or, any stylist&amp;#39;s assistant, just because it would have the potential to be hilarious.\n*STF: Who are your personal style icons? Where do you most frequently get ideas for dressing from? *\nNH: Hm, I don&amp;#39;t really have a personal style icon, to tell you truth. I don&amp;#39;t think I really dress like anyone, which isn&amp;#39;t to say that I&amp;#39;m super unique or anything, I just don&amp;#39;t think about getting dressed that hard I guess. I couldn&amp;#39;t even say where I get my ideas from - browsing?\n*STF: What would a stranger think when walking into your closet? *\n__NH:__Oh god, they&amp;#39;d probably think I have a hard time throwing anything away! Even when something is undoubtedly broken and can never be worn/used again, I just keep it. It&amp;#39;s really bad, and I know I should stop, I just can&amp;#39;t bring myself to throw out stuff I&amp;#39;ve paid for! I also have piles of clothes that have bad stains/missing buttons/etc that I swear I will one day take care of, but probably look like a huge mess to a stranger.\n*STF: What&amp;#39;s the most expensive thing you own? The least? *\nNH: I just bought myself a Stella McCartney skirt in celebration of some nice things that have happened recently, and it was definitely the most I have ever paid for a piece of clothing. The least expensive thing...I guess I have socks from Aeropostale that couldn&amp;#39;t have cost too much.\n\n\n\n__STF:__What blogs do you read regularly? *\n__NH:__I read so many different sites in a day, it would be impossible to list them all! But first and foremost, I always check Fashionologie, Style.com and Style File, Racked, all the model blogs, the Starworks blog can be entertaining - and of course, Slaves to Fashion!\nCheck out Fashionista.com for more from Natalie...\nPhoto: Patrick McMullan"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
