Style.com is as usual on the ball and telling me all the latest from fashion heavy metropolis's such as New York and London. What did i learn today? I learnt whose the new who on the front row and whose got the fashion royalty crown...for now.
We all shamelessly stalk the latest "it" girls and boys even though they generally don't do much to deserve that much attention however this bunch may actually be contributing to the world in more ways than perfume lines and porno films.
For example, Aurel Schmidt may be as blonde, skinny and fake tanned as Paris Hilton but she is actually an uber cool, successful and I must admit quite prolific artist. She is emerging on the New York art scene with her works that heavily revolve around bugs and corpses. Not a chihuahua or tiara in sight. i promise.
Or the teeny tiny Tavi Williams who is only 13 and is wowing fashionistas all over the world with her very savvy and extremely insightful fashion journalism. The popularity of her blog "Style rookie" has led her opinion to be of such value that she has written for Interview mag and been the cover star of Pop mag. Crazy town? No, this pocket rocket means business she told the world that she was tired of Christophe Decarnin of Balmain was doing the same thing each season. Oh no she didn't! Watch out Anna Wintour!
The Honorable Sophia Hesketh is another example although i may need to convince you of this. Yes she is an heir to her very wealthy father's lordly estate (yawn!) and so has all of the perks of such, not dissimilar to most "it" girls. Need i mention Paris again? Any who, despite her disgustingly privileged lifestyle she is actually a super talented employee at Japanese Vogue. I admire anyone who could keep up with the creativity in that magazine.
Okay so only three examples of actually useful people. Everyone else is the usual mix of heiress/model/struggling actress or professional party goer but still, they have nice shoes and go to extravagant parties. That's good enough for me.
Look out for them,
