Oh my gosh Darlings! It’s been 2 weeks since my last post; life has been busy, busy, busy, with its highs, lows and the in betweens.
Since my last post, one of my all time favourite blogs, Daily Candy closed it’s doors for the last time on April 4. I can’t believe it’s been fourteen years. I remember the day they started, every fashionista worth her salt in New York, made sure she received her Candy emails, which was nothing more than a stylish newsletter at the time. Daily Candy eventually branched out to other cities and countries and a blogging star was truly born.
I loved the artwork of the original illustrator, SuJean Rim, who worked with the site for the first 12 years. She captured the essence of a “Candy” girl.
I was working for a major record label, when Daily Candy made her debut back in the year 2000, bringing back great memories of living in New York City, and striding through Manhattan in 4″ stilettos. Thank you Daily Candy for being one of the original daily blogs (you inspired me, and so many others), thanks for the broad range of new fashion designers, home goods, restaurants, daily deals (they were way ahead of Groupon) and many other niceties, you continuously brought our way.
Thank you for a fabulously chic ride, and for being a true pioneer in the blogasphere!
