BryanBoy: The ultimate fashion blogger

In today's world any one can start a blog, and anyone does. There are blogs for everything; "What I ate today" blogs, "What I wore today" blogs, "Pictures of my cat" blogs, "salt and pepper shaker collection" blogs. If you can think of it there is most likely a blog out there dedicated to it. So the question a blogger has to ask themselves is "How do I stand out in the vast sea of bloggers?" One person who has found the answer to this question is BryanBoy. His fashion and life style blog was named the Philippines fashion and life style blog of the year in 2007. Also he was named one of the 9 biggest internet celebrities by The New York Post, and #25 of the top 25 most recognizable faces in fashion.
Not only has he won over the internet with his outrageous style and campy fashion blog but he has also plowed his way into the fashion world, making some very powerful friends along the way. Heavy hitters like Marc Jacobs, Anna Wintour, Carine Roitfeld, and Dominico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. His foot print in the fashion world is so deep many of these giants in fashion are now being inspired by him! The BB in the Marc Jocobs BB ostrich bag is named after the blogger. Prada admitted to using the signature BryanBoy pose in 3 of their 2006 advertisements and it has been widely reported the Queen of all things fashion herself, Anna Wintour has requested to be seated front row with the internet trail blazer at many of the Paris, Milan and New York fashion week shows. 
He is truly an inspiration for not only for this class and this assignment but also in life. Hes someone who proves that if you do exactly what you want, people may not understand it at first but they will catch on and you will be the one who comes out on top in the end.
