\"how<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Many of us start blogs as a way to keep our skills sharp when it comes to writing and talking about or keeping up with fashion. Your blog can be a calling card or gateway to a job if you\u2019re smart and savvy with your content! A great clip to pass along to a potential employer or publication you might want to contribute to is an interview.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t be discouraged by any disadvantages you\u2019re already assigning to yourself because of lack of inexperience or a perceived lack of credibility. While it\u2019s true that some higher-ups in the fashion industry may have no time or interest in talking to an up-and-coming blogger (or a well-established one, for that matter) – so what? We say go for it anyway. Consider reaching out to local figures, designers, PR agencies, models, shop owners, etc to build up a body of work and create a solid reputation for yourself. Just like you, every business, brand and shop is looking to get their name out there as much as possible.<\/p>\n
