Best style blogs?

I am just a little bit in love with The Sartorialist and can waste far too much time browsing through his site archives. Can anyone recommend any other decent style blogs? I'm 37 and tend to prefer classic, as opposed to overly trendy styles. Thanks!

Le Catch and Stockholm Street Style and South Molton St Style. Am a classic dresser too but follow street style to keep my look fresh with small nods to trends.

I've lost interest in lots of them. Lots of sponsored posts. I like "fab at any age" and "not dressed as lamb" even though I don't really like her style at all. Style guile is ok but a bit prim and buttoned up, plus she did a blog recently about a clothes rail Confused.

There's one called "cup of Jo" that has lots of good links to quirky stuff, although I mostly wonder how she affords everything when she doesn't seem to work.

Style guile is prim. She's the Patty simcock of blogs.

I've been quite mean about Style Guile on here before and I'd actually like to hold my hands up and say I was a dick, blogging isn't easy and you'll never please everyone all of the time. She has her own style and sticks to it, which I admire and I think she's picked out some really nice lately!

There are so many .. for me I like

I like to see blogs with women posting what they wear, not always about what they want to buy, that's boring

What's yours Trampy?

Have had a look at Does my bum look 40 before. Not keen for some reason. Not sure why. I never like her shoes. I'm sure she's devastated Grin

Oooh thank you Drywhite and everyone else too. Lots to be getting my teeth into.

Think The Sartorialist will always be my first love though - he has such good taste and such a brilliant eye for detail.

The blog 'Stil in Berlin' has links to a whole bunch of street style blogs in different cities around the world. None of them are quite as tasteful as the Sartorialist though, but they are a bit more varied.

I like the Sartorialist but get very annoyed by the fact that he snaps endless older, even larger men, but rarely does the same for older ladies, and once labelled a picture of a woman who looked to be a toned size 12 as 'an object lesson in dressing a bigger woman' or something to that effect. And then couldn't understand why people got annoyed with him.

Yes actually I remember seeing something similar on his site Matsikula. Something about not needing very slim legs for a certain item to look good. And then, in the picture, was a woman with what seemed to me like perfectly slim, but healthy (as opposed to twig like) looking legs. I remember thinking, 'eh?'

have only just got into following all these style blogs, am quite enjoying them but am a little curious as to how some fund their regular shopping sprees Envy

nipers, I have a very strict budget and price cap. Almost everything is an ebay or sale find. I'm always a bit Hmm at blogs that claim to be affordable, then shows hermes scarves and burberry jackets.

God bless Primark!
