On Trial: Emily’s camisole – what do you think?
Guest blogger Emily, of Fabulous Fashion Sense wants to know what Fashion Police readers think of this camisole.

I have this blog about my opinions and musings on fashion. As you can see, it’s called "Fabulous Fashion Sense". I know it’s such a daring move for me to even consider I have a fabulous fashion sense when the truth is I have a next to no fashion qualifications. I do have a sister who has a degree in fashion. But I really think I have more fashion sense than her. Ooopss….sorry sis.
I have all these views about fashion through reading fashion magazines consistently and watching any fashion related show there is on the television. To cut the story short, I have posted a number of blog posts of fashion items that I bought, and had my say about them. There was this one particular post that I did which had sparked up an annoyance for a person, or maybe more than one person. But all of my one and a half years of blogging, this is the worst comment that I’ve ever received. This is what it says:
“I can’t help it but saying you gotta be kidding me with all your fashion statements. They’re not even close to fabulous as you have acclaimed. You need a major makeover…sorry to say.”
What do you think it does to my self-esteem? I was a bit offended of course but I tried to be as professional as I could be when I replied on the comments. But then the person never replied back to me. I don’t know whether he or she is afraid to leave any more comments or does he or she feel like puking to even see my posts. I think this is the worst fashion crimes I’ve made so far. It’s all because of this particular camisole that I bought. I just thought it’s a unique camisole with Bollywood-like detailing. Seriously, what do you think? Should this camisole be thrown away?
So, what do you think? Leave Emily a comment and let her know whether she really has made a crime of fashion…

Thanks for the post, Emily

For what it’s worth, I love the camisole – I wouldn’t describe it as a crime of fashion at all. When you blog about fashion (or about anything, really), you’re always going to get people who feel the need to make nasty comments. I’ve no idea what these people get out of it: I think it makes them feel clever, somehow, which is kinda sad, really. Those kind of commentors are almost always too cowardly to come back and reply to any responses you make to them, too, so I normally just laugh at them then forget them.
Try not to let it get to you, and keep up the good work

I like it. And if you like it, then that’s all that matters. Dress for yourself and don’t let anyone tell you that you don’t look fabulous.
First of all my big thank you for thefashionpolice.net for featuring me as a guess blogger. I’m glad you guys actually like the camisole. At least I know my fashion sense is not that bad at all. Thanks..
Oopss..I didn’t put my name. Thanks again!

I love it
Don’t let anyone tell you it’s not pretty
It is a bit much.
I don’t publish comments like that (it’s my blog, why should I?!), especially when the person is a) too cowardly/lazy to leave their name, and b) doesn’t have their own blog to let the world know how much better they are doing at styling themselves.
That top is lovely, don’t let anyone tell you different. Some people should learn that if they can’t say anything nice they shouldn’t say anything at all. Right, I’m off to check out the rest of your site now.
awesome top. some people are way too terrified to take fashion risks; who would want to read their blogs? personally, the cami is darling, but even if i didn’t think so, you definitely have enough style to write a blog!

I like it…but in order for it to work you have to have solid pants and simple looking shoes…not much else can really be put into the outfit!!!
