Those high heels, the just-right dress you wish you could fit into (some of you may, not me). I never wanted to be a model, a clothes horse. But&#8230; I have a secret lust to be a fashion blogger. Posting photos of\u00a0clothes\u00a0I&#8217;d love to wear. Having an excuse to buy that extra pair of boots you really don&#8217;t need but they would look so great with that coat you saw in the store window. Maybe even dropping in on the fashion world itself, attending a fashion show as if I belonged there.<\/p>\n<p>I won&#8217;t be a fashion writer, blogger or editor. For a few reasons: age, weight, interest, I just don&#8217;t suit the world of the fashionable.<\/p>\n<p>What about other fashion? It&#8217;s not all clothes. Think\u00a0jewelry&#8230; how nice to photograph designer lockets, charming bracelets and sparkling diamonds, emeralds, rubies and assorted costume\u00a0jewelry\u00a0and other creations meant to be worn. Consider blogging about something other than women&#8217;s fashion, how about fashion for kids? Fashion for men? Or, pets, I haven&#8217;t seen that done yet. Also, I know of at least one lingerie fashion blogger. If you really want to create a fashion blog find your own way, create your own niche and then be prepared to push your way into it.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, I indulge my inner fashionista by posting clothes I will never actually wear to my Pinterest account. I can visit them there when I need a boost.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Wikipedia: <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fashion_journalism\">Fashion Journalism<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/heartifb.com\/\">Independent Fashion Bloggers<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Scoop.it: <span class=\"removed_link\" title=\"http:\/\/www.scoop.it\/t\/fashionbloggers\">Fashion Bloggers<\/span><\/li>\n<li>HubPages: Become a Fashion Writer<\/li>\n<li>eHow: <span class=\"removed_link\" title=\"http:\/\/www.ehow.com\/how_5930583_become-fashion-blogger.html\">How to Become a Fashion Blogger<\/span><\/li>\n<li>eHow: <span class=\"removed_link\" title=\"http:\/\/www.ehow.com\/how_12125933_known-fashion-blogger.html\">How to Get Known as a Fashion Blogger<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Scarlet Black Fashion Blog: <a href=\"http:\/\/scarletblackfashion.wordpress.com\/2010\/03\/22\/how-to-write-for-fashion\/\">How to Write for Fashion<\/a><\/li>\n<li>HubPages: Become a Beauty Blogger<\/li>\n<li>Fashion.net: <span class=\"removed_link\" title=\"http:\/\/www.fashion.net\/howto\/fashioneditor\/\">How to Become a Fashion Editor<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Teen Vogue: <span class=\"removed_link\" title=\"http:\/\/www.teenvogue.com\/careers\/2011\/07\/how-to-start-a-fashion-blog#intro\">A Pro&#8217;s Guide to Fashion Blogging<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Refinery29: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.refinery29.com\/how-to-become-a-star-style-blogger\">How to Become a Star Style Blogger<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Canada Arts Connect: <span class=\"removed_link\" title=\"http:\/\/canadaartsconnect.com\/magazine\/2011\/06\/want-to-be-a-fashion-blogger-heres-how\/\">Want to be a Fashion Blogger?
