My World: Is Fashion Writing Real Journalism

When you think of fashion journalism, you think of writers covering trends and fashion tips/advice, right? However, fashion journalism includes so much more than that.
Fashion writers also write about diet workout plans to keep you healthy and fit, they give dating advice and tips, and they provide interviews with celebrities about fashion inspiration and accomplishments.
For example, some of the popular magazines of fashion journalism are Teen Vogue, Seventeen, Marie Claire and many more that feature a wide variety of things in their issues.
Fashion journalism now has taken a new route, with more of a focus on modernizing women inside and out, rather than just fashion and hemlines.
Honestly what would our society as we know it today, be without fashion journalism? Boring! Because our personal fashion wouldn't be up to par and very untrendy, just because we wouldn't have anyone to inform us about it.
Our cable television and Internet blogs would be uninteresting because we wouldn't have networks like Style, Enews, and Oxygen to entertain us with fashion or blogs such as style.com and many other online magazines.
Fashion journalism is serious journalism and should be taken seriously just like all other types of journalism. I want people to know that fashion journalism surrounds us everywhere, on television, in magazines, on radio stations, in books and even on the Internet.
Even though it may seem like fashion journalism isn't serious enough because it doesn't provide serious enough news, it still covers topics other than fashion and provides its readers with information.
Without fashion journalism, our society's fashion would turn into fashion homicide. Readers won't gain the strong confidence they need to become or grow into beautiful successful individuals.
