Robin and Gino - one from my found vintage photo collection
A few weeks ago, Syed, at Dapper Kid, wrote a great post about fashion bloggers and transparency.
I commented on how I doubted the transparency of Jak & Jil at times.
My viewpoint formed after seeing too many black quilted vintage (?) Chanel shoulder bags and a specific type of phone in a series of posts on Jak & Jil.
These high-gloss street style bloggers have always left me with doubts - it's time to move on, marketers.
Today, in my reader, four new posts from Jak and Jil came in - each titled Tommy Ton for Club Monaco.
Thank you, Mr. Ton, for your transparency. I, for one, greatly appreciate it.
