Running away and joining the circus is an escape for some, but for Carrie Parry, it was inspiration. “Each season we traveled from town to town through the English countryside. It’s difficult to describe what it’s like to wake up surrounded by Russian Cossacks and acrobats, clowns, musicians, and jugglers—and then getting to work with them, and then getting to know them as people and as friends,” remembers the Los Angeles-born, New York-based designer. It’s just one of the many things that influence Parry’s timeless-with-a-twist designs for her eponymous label, which launches this fall.
PinkDreamGirl- Heute möchte ich euch annygirl10 vorstellen.
Selina.Stardoll- In dieser Woche legten unsere Lieblingsstars nochmal einen Zahn zu! Bei den Billboard Music Awards und in Cannes sahen wir atemberaubende Mode. Eine Sache, die wir von den Fashionistas gelernt haben ist, dass man nicht immer den Saisontrends nachlaufen muss, um toll auszusehen.

- Of course we are excited when summer trends in clothing shows up on the runway. But something that is really exciting is trends in swimwear! You can really stand out if you want this summer. This season it's more than okay to walk away from the usual boring triangle bikinis and bet for color or even a hot swimsuit! Check out the summer's newest and hottest swimwear here!

What can we say—gingers are so hot right now. With Disney’s newest flick Lemonade Mouth debuting on DVD today (win it here!), we couldn’t be more excited to spotlight 18-year-old actor-slash-songwriter Adam Hicks, who plays Wen in the movie. Hicks dishes on rapping (obvi), high school, and the coolest date he’s been on, which is actually pretty awesome (we took notes). Check out our Q&A below!
Princess__17- Wie schon angekündigt, hat Stardoll 2 weitere Etagen im PPQ of Mayfair store hinzugefügt. Zu dem Rubinrot, Amethystblau und Bernsteingelb der vorigen ähnlichen Kollektion schmückt jetzt auch Himmelblau die wunderschönen neuen Kleider, Jumpsuits und sommerlichen Shorts.

- Kate Bosworth sieht immer relaxed und stylisch aus, weshalb sie sich perfekt für diese Rubrik eignet! Hier rockt sie einen entspannten Look in den angesagtesten Klamotten der Saison: Die Boyfriend-Jeans und ein schöner, rosafarbener Pullover, um den Look feminin zu halten.

Part of the appeal of fashion blogging is its tangibility. There’s the feeling of intimacy with the author, but also the sense that anyone has a shot at celebrity—that you actually have a chance at becoming the next Tavi (well, if you’ve missed the 13-year-old age mark, perhaps the next Susie Bubble). Granted, fame probably isn’t the driving factor in your desire to get your words out there, but you must admit: recognition has its perks. Increasingly, those looking to share their style sensibilities are turning to Tumblr, and they’re smart to do so—the four-year-old blogging service is known for its largely photo-focused content and avid user engagement. ELLE talked with Rich Tong, Tumblr’s Fashion Director, about the best way a fashion blogger can market herself on the platform and how to become a key player. Here, his essential tips.
1. First, choose Tumblr. Not to highlight the obvious, but there are certain opportunities and advantages to being part of the community. Part of Tong’s job is reaching out to fashion brands, developing new features for fashion bloggers, and managing fashion week initiatives, which is rare (and awesome) for a tech company. Another bonus: the re-blog feature lends itself easily to publicity. Explains Tong, “Your posts are much more likely to be re-blogged and shared, providing you more exposure than you could get anywhere else.”
2. Be consistent. “This is key in maintaining a follower base,” says Tong. “You want to train your readers to know when or how often you’ll post. Make sure to ‘like’ and re-blog others’ posts.”
3. Make the pic pretty. Tumblr users get off on beautiful photos so either take hi-res photos (people especially love highly saturated images) or re-blog quality pictures (always giving credit where needed, of course).
4. Create your voice. This doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to write from a first-person perspective or post pictures of yourself. “It’s easy to be anonymous and still curate one of the most beautiful fashion blogs on Tumblr,” says Tong. Another tip: answer questions (using the ask feature).
5. Learn and follow others who already do it well. Some of Tong’s suggestions: “Jamie Beck (fromme-toyou.tumblr.com) has done an exceptional job marketing herself, ever since she joined Tumblr’s fashion week initiatives this past season. She’s gone on to work with some absolutely incredible people including Oscar de la Renta, Coco Rocha, and Christian Louboutin. Jessica Quirk (whatiwore.tumblr.com) is also another terrific example, as she’s now in the process of publishing her first book based on her blog.” You can also find top players in Tumblr’s fashion feature section (https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/fashion). Getting in here will guarantee that you’ll amass some followers, so be sure to tag your posts and give credit where needed. A hint: original content gets attention.
6. You can always rely on buzz-worthy topics. Unsurprisingly, Tumblr users are obsessed with what we’re all obsessed with. “Gaga, McQueen, and Alexa Chung. Always Alexa,” says Tong.
Also: “If you need to resort to it, photos of puppies and kittens. It doesn’t matter that they’re not fashion-related. They’re cute.”
