Just in case you ever wondered if I actually WEAR the outfits I post, I present to you this evidence:

This was my outfit from last Thursday snapped for the Feathers Boutique blog – on the left – (also see Indiana’s, Sydney’s and Linda’s outfits!).
Sometimes I wonder if style bloggers actually WEAR the outfits they post everyday. I always have because otherwise, what’s the point? My outfits are a chronicle of me, my days, and what I wore; WYSIWYG. I don’t wear heels everyday and sometimes my outfits are horribly boring and maybe even unflattering, but I show them to you anyway.
I ask you this, Is an outfit really an outfit if you don’t wear it?
I’m talking to you, style blogger who’s wearing heels in a foot of snow 😉
No, not really, I’m not accusing anyone of anything, I’m just curious.
If you’re a blogger, do you wear the outfits you post?
As a reader, do you wonder if the blogger actually wears the outfit she posts?
**just wanted to add a side-note, notice the difference between the angle of the photograph here. I take my photos with the camera on the tripod at waist-level, which provides a much better angle in my opinion than shooting at eye-level. This is incidentally something I learned at the Texas Style Council this year 😉
I hope they do – but I think that the outfits you wear look “wearable.” In other words, they look comfortable and stylish at the same time, so I assume that you wear them. On other blogs at times it doesn’t seem that way at all.
Good point — I wonder this fairly often. I always wear the outfits I show on my blog, although occasionally I’ll switch shoes or accessories after the fact if I change my mind. And I’ll often mention that in the post.
You know, I’ve wondered if Jane from Sea of Shoes wears those outfits she posts. 🙂
There are some times that I do question if someone really wears the outfit they post, but that doesn’t happen very often. Most outfits I see don’t seem completely unrealistic for everyday wear.
I definitely wear the outfits I post, but I’ll admit there was one occasion when I came home and switched the shoes I wore before taking pictures. I had on some oxfords all day and changed into heels. That has been my only fashion blogging transgression.

I definitely wonder if certain bloggers really wear their outfits, but I’m not sure how much that matters. I mean- people read blogs for inspiration as well as for entertainment, not always for reality, you know? Maybe I’m TOO realistic LOL!
Generally though, if you say something is your outfit today, I think it should be.
I will say that I’ve sometimes changes shoes or removed some jewelry, but I do try to note that in the post.
