Parody of a Fashion Blogger

Hello fashionistas!

So here I am, guest posting on "I Know, Right?"! Lucky you!!

Let me introduce myself, although all of you should already know me. I'm Chrissy, an attractive 18-to-25-year-old who has the hottest fashion blog of the week called 2 Haute 4 U.



I dress very hip and sophisticated, so most of my followers are a bit intimidated by me, and honestly, I don't blame them. I rock.

I started my blog two months ago and I already have 1,239 followers! Besides spamming every fashion blog I come across ("Nice post! FOLLOW ME!"), I don't really have anything else to justify my success other than me just being gorgeous! (That, and I created 850 fake Blogger profiles to follow my blog).

You may notice that my outfit photos look like fashion editorials. It's because my boyfriend is a professional photographer. He loves taking photos of me because I'm hot and I love having my photo taken because I'm hot. So starting a fashion blog was like destiny for me! I'm so pretty.



You may also notice I only wear the latest couture designer clothes and shoes. And yes, it IS true: I do own 58 Louis Vuitton bags. *blushes*

If I wear anything older than 2010, I label it vintage, and if I happen to be wearing something from Urban Outfitters, I just call it "thrifted" because it sounds better. After all, I need working class girls like you to feel like you can relate to me, but I would never actually step foot into a thrift store, let's be real.



Some of my followers have asked me how I manage to afford a $1,000 per week wardrobe since I clearly don't have a job. It's because my other boyfriend (the married one) is an investment banker and he buys me whatever I want. Jealous much?

Did you see the 14 new ads on my blog that kind of make it difficult for you to access the site? I have a lot of banners and pop-up ads because I like money. Plus, I think it makes me look really professional. I'm sorry for the clutter. (I'm not sorry).



Oh, and if you're wondering why I don't show much personality on my blog, it's because I don't have one.

Anyway, I'm already starting to receive personal invitations to New York Fashion Week and movie premieres and other events in New York City. It won't be long before I'm simply way too cool to even look at anyone else's blog, so you better talk to me while you can. Because give me one more month and I will be like, "bitch, please. Blogger who?"

I'm so glad you worship me and love my blog and clearly think this is the greatest guest post in the world!

Thanks Jessica Fabulous. Luv you!

Haha. Definitely one of the funniest things I've ever read! Loved it. My favourite bit: 'I label anything before 2010 as Vintage'. I'm sharing this with everyone!

This is hilarious. So spot on it isn't even funny, really. I was just talking to a friend about this. How there are so many damn fashion blogs and no one has a point of view or a pulse really.

Stephanie said...

I get the sense you've actually encountered "Chrissy", and that your very funny parody of a shallowly vacuous fashion blogger is based on real professional observations.

If is the case then Chrissy is marriage material! How can one contact her!?!

That's so awesome! :D Suddenly my outfit photos being so home-made looking doesn't feel too bad at all ;D You made my day, thanks for that! :D No one should take blogging (especially fashion one) too seriously. It's supposed to be fun, right? :D Keep it up! ;)

Meri said...

oh man, the sad thing is it took me about 2 months of blogging to figure these blogs out! I was so confused at first, and now you've created this lovely parody. Cheers Jennifer :)

Man, if only I had seen this post... 2 year ago. My first year, I was happy. I started out when all the other, now "mega" bloggers started. Some I even started before! And when their blogs started to take off, I was like "...wha?" And I took it so hard. But now, I have seen the light, and you my dear, have the perfect outlook!
