Overview of my blog

“Tara’s Fashion World” is going to be a total compilation project. I will be posting blogs about fashion deriving from a huge range of sources- there will be no limits. Each week I will be using a different source, in order to keep things interesting; they will include television shows, books, movies, newspaper articles, and even current and classic trends. It is going to be a lot of fun to relay my opinion on things that are happening in the fashion world- fact, fiction or reality. There are definitely subtleties in fashion that are overlooked, and my goal is to notice them and bring them, and everything that is fashion, together- no matter how minute it may be. To be completely honest, I am not a fan of blogs, and part of that can be attributed to the fact that I truly do not understand them. I am guessing that the main point of a blog is to share a point of view, or information any sort, with the rest of the public. My confusion lies in the difference between a blog and a chat forum. Doesn’t everyone have the opportunity to discuss a general or specific topic, and receive feedback, in both internet categories?! What exactly differentiates the two then? Regardless, I am excited to get the chance to have a voice in an area that I love and am truly passionate about! It will be a great learning experience and I will attain knowledge not only about fashion and the different views that people hold on the subject, but also about a new (to me) and interesting communication technique.
