1. Irina Lakicevic
A Portable Package
We don't know about you, but where we are right now, it. is. freezing. So lately we've been looking to Norwegian blogger Irina Lakicevic for inspiration on how to weather the chilly temps in style. The brunette's eye for layering and slick wardrobe of Celine, Acne, Balenciaga belie her day job as a dentist (yes, dentist!), so she's also something of a beacon of hope for fashion fans with less-than-haute career paths.
2. Brianne Garcia

A recent graduate of CUNY graduate school of journalism, Brianne Garcia doesn't run a style blog, per se. But she does run a blog that should spark the interest of anyone seriously interested in carving their own path with a style-oriented startup. For the past 7 months, she has been keeping it real about entrepreneurship and, since her own fledgling company ran into more than a few roadblocks, about finding a job that both excites you and pays the rent.
3. Jay Miranda

Fashion bloggers can look like a cookie-cutter breed, all lanky limbs and Litas, but for those looking for inspiration outside of the mold, don't fret! There is plenty of awesome style out there on the interwebs. Take Jay Miranda for example -- the Los Angeles based blogger and entrepreneur used to post under the handle Fatshionable, but has since made the switch to a real name URL. We share her affinity for feminine, affordable pieces, along with a hefty dose of sparkle, and think it's awesome that up until about two months ago, she was also rocking a baby bump (now, of course, she's just rocking one very adorable baby).

With her ombré waves, penchant for all things black, white, and grey, and
a brand ambassadorship for Guess by Marciano under her belt, Anouska may just be Dublin's answer to Elin Kling . Of course, it doesn't hurt that she looks a little bit like the lovechild of Keira Knightley and Michelle Dockery.
5. Anastasia Gelfman Silis
Let Them Stare
This fashion designer's blog is a bit unusual, since the majority of her posts double as giveaways for her tailored, often monochromatic clothing creations. Based in Mumbai and hailing from Israel, Silis is a bit of a chameleon, and on any given day can channel anyone from Lisbeth Salander to a French gamine. Chalk it up to the haircut, but we've got a serious style crush. Plus, anyone with the cojones to rock the Givenchy nose piece look in public deserves props in our book.
6. Fashion Industry Confessions
Fashion Industry Confessions
Deliciously gossip-y, this anonymous Tumblr site predicted Lady Gaga's September Vogue cover back in May and sparked all those rumors about Givenchy collaborating with H&M. We'll have to wait until the new year to see if the latter proves true, but it only stands to reason that with growing notoriety, the blog will be getting the inside scoop (or at least some version of it) through reader submissions.
