In the vast blogosphere of fashion blogs, we've found a few that stand out above the crowd. Why? Great content, eye-pleasing layouts and necessary information, like links where shoppers can purchase the items shown. It doesn't hurt to have a fab name, too. Take "Life of a Rockstar", written by a hip, California writer named Nicole Hanratty, whose takes on life, love and fashion are infotainment at its best. We love her tips and her personality shines through each post. She's the kind of passionista we want to share a glass of good California chardonnay with.

Locally, we love Jessica Shops. Jessica Dauler, Atlanta's shopping guru, writes about deals and steals in and around Atlanta, with such attention to detail you won't miss a sale and you definitely won't overpay! Her creative blog covers fashion and cosmetics and points readers to the best sales and shopping secrets around. As my friends from New England say, "we all like a baaagan".

A few weeks ago, we participated in the Southern Women's Show in Savannah. Since part of our mission is to help charitable organizations, we searched for a project or organization we could help while we were there. We discovered the firemen of the Southside Fire Dept. were going to do a "hotties" fashion show during the event to benefit the Southeastern Firefighters Burn Foundation, a great organization that supports burn patients and their families during and after treatment of the trauma of a burn. We jumped at the opportunity to design a special t-shirt that we could sell at the show, and donate proceeds to the foundation.
