Maybe I should be a fashion blogger instead…..

I attended the Style: Week fashion show with Dottie yesterday evening. Part of the “blogger exchange program” we cooked up over the beer session a few weeks after the Blogathon. I think it’s nice to see what the other category bloggers are doing. And after attending the event, I think maybe I should convert myself to a fashion blogger instead.

The events they attended are more glamorous than most tech events (although I have attended some posh tech events too). Lots of pretty people at the events and sure to spot a few celebrities in the crowd. Then you have the runway show where good looking models walk on stage wearing beautiful clothing that you wish you own. It’s interesting to see details and how the designers match the jackets, shirt and jeans to form one masterpiece.

And I guess it should be easier to blog about fashion. No press release or long product specifications. No need for Q&A to clarify some stuff you are unclear after the presentation. Don’t need to compare the product with another similar product from competitors. You don’t need to try out the product yourself to get the feel of the performance and usability. And most importantly, there is no right or wrong. You can have models wearing super thick jacket in tropical Singapore and nobody will raise their hands and question the designer’s sanity. (Try launching a super high end smartphone without WIFI and see how the media reaction)

But here is the problem….. I have no fashion sense at all. Nothing. Zero. And you need to wear nice clothes when you attend these fashion events, else you will stand out in the crowd as the only person without fashion sense. It’s not like tech events when you can go in wearing T-shirt and Jeans. And all they have is fashion at the event. Unlike some tech events where they combine tech with fashion. You see, this is the most high tech gadget they have for the evening…..

I think I’ll just stick to blogging about tech and current affairs. Still more fun playing with the cool gadgets and exchanging the latest tech rumors. And I got a few gadget reviews which I haven’t found the time to write.

PS: This is just a tongue in cheek entry. Don’t take it seriously lah. I’m still blogging about tech related stuff. It’s like oxygen to me.

But on the side note, I kinda like this. But we don’t have the right weather to wear it in Singapore.
