Extra! Extra! Spot The Blogger (Click To Enlarge)

When Rumi of Fashion Toast put up her latest post, about getting featured in Vogue Girl Korea, my first reaction was a big 'w0000t!'. And then I took a slightly closer look at the World Fashion Blogger feature she'd scanned along with her interview, and realised I recognised more than one person on the page besides Rumi herself- not least The Clothes Horse, Rhiannon of Liebemarlene Vintage, and Kirsty of That's Just My Vibe (all circled and named in my MS-Paint messup of Rumi's scan). And I think I'd be sure of the identities of more of them if the pictures were bigger, but it's quite a kick to see people on your blogroll featured in the pages of a magazine, more so when they wear their clothes so amazingly.
PS: Does anyone recognise more of the bloggers on the page? I think I recognise some of the outfits, but can't quite name the blogger (which is embarrassing for me!)

EDIT: As a kind reader pointed out, I named one of the bloggers wrong, so I edited the name out. My bad...

How great for all of them! I can't recognize the faces, they're too small for me!

Thanks for posting this.

P'raps you someday, BFH?

Rebecca, A Clothes Horse said...

Oooh, I heard I might be in it, but I haven't seen for myself yet! Cool and this pic is kinda like playing where's Waldo, I actually see 3 looks from me. Thanks for letting me know!

Rhiannon said...

Wow, thanks for this post! I haven't seen it yet either but I'm excited!! :)

riz said...

CONGRATS are in order for everyone!! The world is waking up to the blogosphere... fantastic.

Romeika said...

It's indeed so exciting, as I visit most of these girls' blogs often! I can recognize the girl from Childhood Flames and the one from Fashion Squad, besides the other bloggers you mentioned. Congratulations to all of them!

Rebecca, A Clothes Horse said...

I also see the girls from Childhood Flames and Fashionfillers.

I believe the pink arrow pointing to your "Lulu" is actually Lisa from Lisa Place.

bestie said...

Selina: Thanks for the ID! And it made plenty of sense to me, so no need to apologise for that!

ENC: Yeah, I made a mistake in id-ing one of the bloggers, but it's great for them!

Perakath: no chance, I'm not a personal style blogger. The feature focuses on how the girls dress..

The Clothes Horse: Yeah, the pictures are hard to recognise in places, but you look great! I avoided putting in more arrows because the picture was already a bit cluttered with them..

Rhiannon: I hope they'll send you a copy since you're in it, and congratulations!

Headmistress: Yeah, I spotted Camille too, but couldn't see too well so I wasn't sure it was her. But it's a fun game, Spot The Blogger :)

Riz: Yup, Vogue Girl Korea seems to be WAY ahead of the curve...fashion mags in India mostly dismiss blogs outright, probably cause there really aren't any here.

Romeika: Thanks for the further ID!

Jennifer: My bad, I'm awful at the identification. I fixed the picture with the correct name, though.

Bestie: Yes, it's awesome indeed..

Charlotte: I'm really happy for all of them, even the ones whose blogs I didn't know about (which means more great blogs to visit). And I'm glad you liked the Amy Sol paintings in the last post.

Fashion Tidbits: Thank you so much for giving me a definite list of the sites- it's great to hear from someone who actually has the copy! I'll be off to read them soon...

what a fun post! I love when bloggers get recognition goodstuff!

Blue Floppy Hat said...

Lulu: Thank you for commenting! (I've never left a comment on yours since I can't figure out if Chictopia lets you comment without an account, but it is awesome). I'm adding you to the blogroll at once!

Sophista-funk and old.soul.in.the.city: It's brilliant indeed..:)

Unknown said...

Aaah yes, you have to create an account in order to comment, but we're so new that most of the bloggers out there have been able to keep their original blogging name so people can still keep track. You should just come play with us anyway.

I have to admit, after the Korean Vogue girl, many friends did come up to me and ask "why arent you in this?" and it made me a little sad (silly as that sounds).

Aaah I'm just blathering on now.

Lulu:I created an account, no pictures yet though I'm having fun checking out all the pictures.
And don't feel sad about the Vogue Girl thing, you've been on Teen Vogue after all! It's not silly..
Anon: thanks for the info..
