The blogosphere is crazy right now. Much like a high school in the midst of homecoming week, Fashion Month is full swing and festivities are happening in all corners of Campus 2.0. Many a blog reside in my Google Reader and let me tell you it is blowing up like whoa. To help you sift through the madness that is the fashion scene in its peak hour, here are my top four favorite blogs I’ve been following for this month. All of them are awesome, with or without Fashion Week, so that means these are real keepers.

1. Shine by Three. Seeing the neon Cambridge Satchel over and over again in the last few months has blown my mind, and not in a good way. Margaret is refreshing – her style is simple but experimental, and while she does not shun trends she clearly defined her style, and it happens to be one we likie. You may want to bookmark this one.

2. FrouFrouu. Nadia is a thrift queen, and in a fashion world where “Putting your best face forward” means having a pair of overpriced sunglasses, we admire that. Obviously, Nadia isn’t afraid of the dig, and she manages to pull together looks that must be as affordable as they are inherently stylish. Like Margaret, she’s a lady who knows what she likes – a lady with a distinct personal style, not to mention an amazing photographer.

3. Like Fresh Laundry. Did you miss our interview with Natalie? You can find it and my incessant raving right here. Needless to say, we’re fans.

4. I Am Galla. It’s not often that we find male fashion bloggers, so Adam, we have to admit we think you’re pretty cool just for crossing that bridge, as well as for rocking those jeans and that plaid shirt. And I mean rocking - Adam’s style is completely wearable by any dude on any given day. Girls, you may want to sneak this one into your boyfriend’s reading list. Is that too strong a hint?

1. Cocorosa. A long time favorite of mine, the lovely Chantal is a lover of neutral tones. Nearly every outfit consists of a simple black, cream, or pastel pink. Chantal’s specialty is attention to fine details. Who needs colors when you can have a bow, lace, embellished tights, delicate fringe, and top it off with a pair of over-the-top shoes?

2. Inspirafashion. This mega-cutie-slash-Berkeley-nerd is our neighbor and a lady of many looks. Her penchants include midi skirts and Chanel bags.  We do not object.

3. Snakes Nest. Bethany masters the California winter in a breezy cardigan and some textured shorts. Always on point, never over the top.

4. A Bevy Of. Courtney is my kinda girl. An aggressive mixologist and talented pattern pairer, I always look forward to see what concoction she comes up with next, even if I may be too meek to try it myself.

I’ve got an extensive Google Reader with an entire category dedicated to fashion bloggers I dig. Here are a few girls who not only made me wonder where did she get that, but also how did she do that??

1. Christine from My Style Pill has a way with chic. Her style is slick and always put together, but in a fascinating way – see that sequined skirt with that preppy top? See what I mean? She’s golden.

2. Whitney and Mallory are the two uber-cuties behind the blog Whit Wat Wear. The fact that they’re based in Berkeley means they’re practically locals, and I love how they manage to always look so stylish while staying on solid ground: being chic and comfortable is no easy feat, especially in Berkeley, where we walk everywhere and layers are mandatory.

3. If you’ve followed this here blog for a while you’d know we’re fans of Liz from Late Afternoon, but I’ve actually been following her blog since it’s fledgling days. That means I’m a true fan girl! She has a knack for outfitting herself in a manner that is always stylish but never formulaic. Yellow top, sweater, burgundy pants, and furry bag? Liz, please teach me your ways!

4. La Catrina is the blog of LA-based blogger Ariana, and it’s currently jam-packed with LA Fashion Week extravaganzas as well as Ariana’s dazzling outfits. Dressed for the weather but with maximum impact, I love how Ariana manages a little bit of flashiness in shiny pieces or leather, without ever going over the top. Also, she and Christine sort of look like twins, no?

Fashion magazines? They’re all good and dandy, but I like to turn to the real folks on the streets (or in the blogs) for a genuine taste of today’s style. These four ladies are on my reading list and I find them incredibly inspiring. Blog on, girls!

1. Marcella from Fashion Distraction is all about mixing edgy with feminine pieces, and she does it with effortless class. Ever wonder how to wear a leather skirt without looking like a biker chick? Check out Ms. Marcella’s blog for the answer.

2. From Peter Pan collars to floral prints, K is for Kani is all about feminine dressing. But with a bit of eclecticism, boyfriend cardigans and clever color mixes, she manages to pull off a look that can only be described as girl-gone-wow!

3. What’s refined yet slouchy and LA all over? Olivia from Lust for Life. Enough said.

4. It’s all about the details! Just Another Fashion Blog keeps her outfits understated but stylish with pretty details and dainty jewelry. I love the cut-out details on this button up she has buttoned all the way to the top, lightly cuffed, and only half tucked in.
