The Internet has transformed the fashion world from being able to shop online to blogging about the latest and greatest of the day. The global instant access to the Internet makes it one of the top resources for individuals all around the world to know what’s going on in places where they can’t be.
In modern day society it’s essential to use your resources wisely and get the latest from the latest. Social media has become one of the best ways to get fashion advice and find out what’s hot today.
In 2007 David Karp founded a micro-blogging site that allows you to post texts, quotes and pictures, known as Tumblr. Tumblr is nothing like any social media site out there.

It’s used by freelance designers, corporations and artists that you can only access through this site. Tumblr is a great way to get your foot into the door of the underground world of fashion.
Salon.com writes “Collect Every Moment Wherever You Go. Browsing through various Tumblr blogs is like sifting through the Lost and Found Department of the entire Internet. It's a beautiful mix of everything and anything, from the shocking to the spectacular.”
Even though Tumblr is a great resource to get your next look, another site known as Lookbook.nu is an international blog that has photos, art, clothes, culture and beauty that are specific to fashion all over the world. This site is one of it’s own, bringing together style guru’s such as Lacoste, American Apparel and Coggles that sponsor this site, giving you a direct link to new designers as well as new fashion inspiration.
