Fashion blogs are quickly becoming a new medium for fashion news, opinions and feedback. They have humble beginnings like any website does. As the blog gains attention and more hits to their site, they have the potential to become go-to fashion authorities. For the typical, trendy collegiette, we scroll through fashion blogs to see what’s going on in the ever-changing world of fashion. Also, the bloggers make it easy to connect with them on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and other social media outlets. We look to these sites to inspire and sometimes just to entertain us.

5. Lauren Conrad’s Blog

There is not much to this blog other than the fact that it is the beautiful Lauren Conrad giving you her wisdom regarding fashion, beauty and life. She also gives you easy DIY projects and health tips. The best part of this blog is that she doesn’t always feature pictures of herself! How strange, a blogger who isn’t self-consumed? She features models from her clothing line and models from fashion shows she helps run. She’s come a long way from Laguna Beach.
