Is Fashion Blogging Still Profitable?

February 18, 2024 By in Blogging Tips, Fashion Tags: , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Fashion blogging was a big deal back in the day. I remember scrolling multiple fashion blogs many years ago, soaking in all the stylish content.  I enjoyed reading blogs, especially those with fashion and style content. Some of my favs were Fashion Bomb Daily, She Wears Fashion, The Blonde Salad, and the likes. It was always interesting to see what these style bloggers, and which style pieces and accessories were trending. My interests have changed in the last few years. I have not visited any of these fashion sites in more than 5 years. To be honest, I am not even sure if some of these blogs still exist.

Having said that, I still love fashion but I am not as into it as I was before. I still love reading, but I now only read non-fiction books. Times have changed and so has my taste, and I am sure the same can be said for many. Life would be so dull if we all stayed the same….

Is Fashion Blogging Still Profitable?

Many wonder if fashion blogging is still profitable and my I think it is. It all depends on how passionate you are about creating regular stylish content, and what you perceive as profitable. What Fashion Blogger A may call good income, may be peanuts to Fashion Blogger B. What may be considered profitable for one may not work for another. I know many fashion bloggers have tweaked their own blogs so they can share other types of content, and I also know many who have stopped blogging altogether.

When I started Fashion and Style Police in 2012, it was meant to be a creative outlet for my stylish ideas. I was on a very different path then and I truly enjoyed fashion blogging. Over the years, the blog name stayed but the blog evolved to be more of a lifestyle blog, and it started to generate regular income and I have discovered that the evergreen content keep generating income.

Show me the money

Fashion blogging is still profitable. Many fashion bloggers are full-time bloggers with steady income coming in, so it is doable but it’s a lot. You have to be passionate about your blog and be creative enough to create regular blog posts to attract sponsorship from brands. Also, you have to utilise social media to spread the word and create income. Many bloggers make more money from social media ads than from their own blogs, so having a strong social media presence is crucial if you are looking to make money as a blogger.

Having said, full-time blogging is not for everyone. I was a full-time blogger for many years and I can say I am in a much better place. My blog is now a side gig and I have a full-time j0b, which provides the much needed stability. I won’t change my full-time blogging years for anything though. I learnt a lot about being self-employed and being my own boss. It gave me a lot of freedom for when I needed it the most and I picked up a lot of life lessons on the way. Fashion blogging is profitable and highly recommend for those who have it in them.

5 Biggest Fashion Mistakes to Avoid This Christmas

Winter is here, and with Christmas just around the corner, it’s time to start getting festive with our attire. And while the season may call for certain things, there are certain things it certainly does not call for and we’re here to help. Make sure you stay stylish this winter, by getting familiar with the biggest fashion mistakes to steer clear of this Christmas season.

A Huge Purse

While you may think that bringing everything you need everywhere you go is practical, the truth is that big bags are out. After all, who’s to say that you’re going to need everything in the kitchen sink when you’re out doing your Christmas shopping anyway? Instead of bringing oversized bags and weighing yourself down, opt for a small clutch or handbag. Minimal fashion is in, and your grandma’s huge carpet bag is out. 

Besides, large bags are especially out of place when you’re attending a formal event like a Christmas party or a New Year’s Eve event. Something small and dainty will be much more sophisticated.

Non-Weather Friendly Shoes

We get it, you love your high heels and your fuzzy (not waterproof) Uggs. While these may be perfectly cute winter shoes while you’re indoors, you’re forgetting about the moments you’ll still need to navigate outdoors to get where you’re going. The last thing you want is to arrive at your Christmas party with soggy Uggs or snow-covered stilettos. Do yourself a favor and wear weather-friendly shoes that are stylish, yet can still withstand the rain and snow.

Forgetting Comfort

During the holiday season, we’re often so focused on going with a theme, like sparkles or red and green, that we forget one of the most important aspects of fashion regardless of the season— comfort! Don’t forget that when you attend a Christmas party, you’re going to be standing around and talking to people quite a bit. If you’re uncomfortable, you’re not going to be able to put your best foot forward. Functionality and fashion should always be balanced when it comes to looking your best.

Forgetting the Theme

On the other extreme are people who are so focused on comfort that they forget to embrace Christmas style. Christmas ensembles are all about pairing together the right colors and textures so that you look the part. Avoid the mistake of choosing outfits that could be mistaken for just another day. After all, Christmas is your time to shine and embrace the merry spirit of the holidays. Don’t blend in— stand out!

Forgetting Accessories

One of the best parts of winter is the accessories. From beanies, and scarves, to a cute Santa hat, don’t underestimate the power of a well-chosen Christmas accessory. Making a statement with your accessory can elevate your outfit and be fun on top of it!
