It's a known fact that she's literally at every celebrity event. She makes her rounds on the social scene as well. In the world of fashion (writing at least) The term "Shoe Whore", "Red Carpet Whore" are playful terms used to express folks with an obsession.<BR/>I'm a self-proclaimed shoe whore and make no apologies for it.<BR/>Second, If you read the blog like you claim, you would know I've posted countless times about Katie Holmes being my Favorite Fashionista.<BR/><BR/>While I appreciate your comments, I believe your taking things a little out of context. As far as the Black/White thing....I only see fashion. <BR/>Now if your concerned about African American Blogs projecting negativity on each other, visit the folks over at Bossip, SandraRose, & YBF and comment on some of their blog articles.Treschicstylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14937579104860714787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3394065123036610512.post-52149062425050732282007-12-19T16:59:00.000-05:002007-12-19T16:59:00.000-05:00I'm really enjoying this site, and there are plent...I'm really enjoying this site, and there are plenty of useful links. I think it is great Kerry White is nominated for fashionista of the year and I like Katie Holmes' style also; however, at the risk of sounding hypersensitive I have to make one comment. Why is Holmes referred to as a favorite fashionista and Washington referred to as a favorite party hopper and red carpet whore? Am I correct in my understanding that this is an African American blog? Would it not be offensive if the same comments were made on a white fashion blog? It is possibly more offensive for me to read a comment like thist on a site that is supposedly for us and by us. I'm sure there was no negativity intended but I just thought it important to note. I really think far too often we internalize a lot of the negativity that is projected onto us as people of color and begin to view ourselves through the same blurred lenses as those who continue to believe we are not good enough, smart enough or beautiful enough to truly compete with their eurocentric standards of excellence.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
