This week I am going to speak about my thoughts on Teens blogging about fashion. Before writing this blog, I read an article about this topic. This article can be found @ http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/14/technology/14youth.html?_r=1
After reading this article I think that it is extremely cool that there are online magazines about fashion run completely by persons from the age 18 to 24. I personally think that this is a good thing for the fashion industry because many of them target people in this age group. By having these online blogs, it allows fashion companies to see what their target market thinks about their products. Not only is it beneficial to the fashion companies themselves, these online blogs create an attractive alternative to having to subscribe to other magazines and I am sure is more appealing and fun to read for the young people reading them. As well as it being beneficial to those people reading them, it allows young adults who are interested in the fashion industry to get an early start at their career as well as potentially being recognized by larger fashion firms and maybe getting a job from them. I feel that these online blogs are overall beneficial to our
society and the fashion industry as a whole, what do you think???

I certainly agree that it is beneficial to the fashion world to have such young bloggers and workers. What harm could come to it? It seems simply like free research on what that age group wants, the trends, what they are willing to pay etc... It also allows discussion to which could make someone elses job alot easier as they dont have to go to various sources.
