Why not pressure the fashion institutions to recognize blogs instead? Techies, who run the preexisting web awards, are never going to even register fashion; gimme tees and chino manpris are not exactly Manolo-worthy.

I had 33 nominations for Best New Blog, but blogs that weren't even on the nomination page ended up as finalists. Feh. So, why does anyone bother? I'll measure my blog status by the blogs I read. Like this one! O.K. I'll admit I read GoFugYourself! more. But I loves the Manolo! I feel your pain.

Fashion blogging is a mature market place. The pet blogs are about to explode.

And then, of course, there is the fashionable pet sector. As you are no doubt aware, many dogs need winter boots.

The Manolo needs to start his own Fashion Blogging Awards and not enable those silly Webbies with your superfantasticness.

I'm going to post this on Independent Fashion Bloggers.... I hope you don't mind.... But this is important stuff to consider, it's hard enough establishing credibility in the Fashion World as a blogger... but also within blogging to not be taken as seriously as pictures of cute animals? I'm embarrassed. Seriously. Good morning The Manolo… I’m going to post this on Independent Fashion Bloggers…. I hope you don’t mind….

They are very stupid if they cannot see the influence of fashion blogs and I shall be telling them so.

However, it seems to me, coming from journalism, that the fashion blogs have the potential to alter how fashion is covered, marketed and advertised, as the links the Manolo provides indicate, and these awards, while nice to have, are the mere cherry on a very substantial cake.
