dee be nice! I think the point of The Satorialist that this person is missing is VERY unique street style that REALLY stands out. Most of the people in the pictures are unimpressive. Maybe a piece here or there, but really most of it is just solid colored sweaters and jeans or blacks skirt or bottom. Even if your posting are less frequent make them stand out! :D

Hate to burst ones bubble but the king of street sartorial better known as "The Sartorialist (http://thesartorialist.blogspot.com)" has been blogging in such manner for years.

This conversation is so lame I just might withdraw my newly minted account.

I suspect that the flippant and condescending comments are from those living in Toronto or, I shudder to think, the suburbs of Toronto. Am I right? There’s definitely a whiff of the too cool for school variety here, which only those living in Toronto can produce on mass.

I feel bad for the person who posted their new blog here, thinking that they may get some constructive feedback, rather than your attitude. As least there’s one person here who has a blog, Fashion Schmashion, and is putting something out in the public realm. Unlike Dee and FashionPassion who stand back with anonymous names and criticize. Though I must say to Fashion Schmashion…learn how to spell faux pas…you currently have it spelled faux pa…which just means fake dad. Was that an intentional Freudian slip?

Vancouver’s style is far more laid back and perhaps more aligned with LA than New York. Toronto, get over your complex with New Yorkers. There are many STREET fashion blogs from all over the world that don’t just document socialites and the wealthy elite that have a stylist and money to buy clothes with expensive labels.

Even Anna Wintour in an interview with Barbara Walters has said:

Barbara Walters: Anna, you walk down the street everyone is wearing t-shirts and jeans. So what’s fashion?

Anna Wintour: Well, jeans and t-shirts can be equally fashionable as an Oscar de la Renta ball gown.

Consider this my first and last post. I’m looking to participate in a fashion community that embraces new initiatives and individual personal style, not name dropping and New York envy.

Well I TRIED to give constructive criticism. Street style, aka jeans and t-shirt can be done originally as well. Just because you where a casual style does not mean it has to look like you fell out of a GAP ad or a JCPennys catalog. There are so many options out there. What I was suggesting was to find people in street style who do it originally.
BTW if you LOOK at peoples profiles it states where they are from.
I'm not from Toronto. :o

This will probably stir the pot but here's my .02. I may be wrong but FWIW FashionPassion is a model, if that doesn't constitute putting yourself out there for criticism I not sure what does? As far as I can tell her locale is Hollywood. Myself my domain is public realm, thank you for noticing and yes I am a Toronto native who takes offense to your remarks. If there is any wiff of "to cool" as you state it's setting myself apart from the rest of the Toronto city drones. I don't see others bashing or being critical as much as they're adding input, insight or opinions for that matter. The other reality is this Asartorial has a single post and no visits since posting they're blog url and imagine that nothing since... Forum speaks that's merely using someone else's forum to shamelessly drive traffic.
