How to Start a Fashion Blog: Tips and Advice
By Jennifer
Nelson
Fashion
blogs are quickly becoming the next big thing in the fashion industry. Don’t
miss this incredible opportunity to be on the cutting edge of fashion by
starting a fashion blog. By following this advice about how to make a fashion
blog, you will have all the tools you need to spin up a successful fashion
blog! Here are five fashion blogging tips that will keep your fans coming back
for more!
Tip 1: Be in the Know
The fashion blogging revolution is shaking up
the industry, and you have to know what’s out there. Read the fashion blogs of successful fashion schools, fashion merchandising schools, fashion community sites and
research blogs. If you know the type of blogs you like, then honing in on your
blogging style will be a synch.
Tip 2: Gotta Love It
What makes you and your fashion style unique
is what will keep your readers coming back for more! Are you a bargain fashionista who enjoys
finding the best fashionable deals? Or would you rather post pictures of how to
make every day wear more chic? You could also blog about trend spotting or high
fashion. Deciding whether you would like to showcase your fashion photography
with a small caption or write full fashion articles is a good place to begin. Blogging
takes time and dedication, so if you are not writing about what you absolutely
love then you could burn yourself out in no time. You know your style; don’t be afraid to put it out there.

Tip 3: Create a Haute Name
You could
have the best, most relatable fashion blog, but if your blog’s name is hard to
spell, or even worse, hard to remember, your readers could get lost. Your name
should be catchy but hint at what your blog is about. Keep it simple. Keep it
fun. Make it fashionable!
Tip 4: Create a Couture Template
Find a blog
hosting service that works for you. Make sure to choose a template that is fun,
easy on the eyes and simple to manage. The most imperative aspect of your fashion
blog is that your content is intuitive and fun to navigate, and easy to search.
Tip 5: Don’t Be Fashionably Late
There is nothing worse than anticipating
new content from your favorite fashion bloggers only to be let down by the same
old posts. Some fashion bloggers update their blog many times every day, so if
you have limited time, make sure you are updating your blog at least once a
week to keep your readers coming back for more.
