Oh, Tavi. Keep being brilliant. But you don't need much encouragement to do that, do you? Happy birthday to your blog!

Congratulations on your one year! Hehe so glad you mentioned your rei rap, it never fails to entertain me. I understand how your dad couldn't stop singing it, it's so catchy that sometimes I go to sleep at night with "rei kawakubo, h&m" repeating itself in my head :)

Hey Tavii! you're such an old soul! I love the things you hit at. So much strengh. Futre perfect.

i feel like you're my awesome grandma who i steal clothes from, because she's the only person i know who wears my size, and has amazing style. and at the same time my little cousin who i just want to take creepy pictures of and post them on my facebook, and be like "hey, check out my cousin. isn't she awesome". and stuff.

Paige said...

tavi that was awesome. love your blog, your style-sense is so bananas, it makes me want to start wearing colors again.

AFitz said...

:) yaaay happy one year. You deserve all the hype :)

Chelsea said...

Happy blogday...birthblog?
When you were talking about designers with just one look I could't stop picturing herve leger.
Would much prefer the cut up childrens clothing.

bobb said...

Happy Birthday to Style Rookie!. A great video too. You have been both an inspiration to me with your wit, knowledge and unique perspective on things. I was thinking while watching your video that a year ago I would not have known what you were talking about, as I had never previously followed the fashion world. I had never heard of Rei Kawakubo or Alexander McQueen.

You have mentioned that your Bat Mitzvah is coming up.

bobb said...

A friend recently sent me a link to a couple of books she thought I might be interested in, I think you might be interested as well.

Happy blogiversary! I thought it was really interesting how you compared Balmain to Rei Kawakubo and Yohji Yamamoto, who belong to this sort of modern but timeless category, but I think Issey Miyake would fit in nicely too. I think that their timelessness has to do with this sharp Japanese aesthetic and Balmain makes clothes to appease to celebrities and continue this momentum the label has been getting through editorials. I don't know, just some randomness I thought I'd spew.

happy blogiversary! loved your rant, u never fail to be anything less than epic. xo

Unknown said...

happy birthday tavi! you are by far wise beyond your years.

i agree with your opinion that balmain is not really furthering fashion this season, although i'm madly madly in love with his collection. and you definitely make me think about what i'm wearing and what i'm buying and what i'm saying with my outfits, which in reality is probably less trashy party-girl than you might think? hahahaha. ;]

nothing but love

Happy Blogversary, keep it up! You are the most amazing little lady out there.

NorwegianWood said...

Happy blogiversary! Your package is in the post my dear, with a wee surprise as well...dum dum DUM!

Keep up the ranting, it's always nice to hear people thinking about the whats and whys behind fashion, not just "ooooh, pretty new sparkles!" Although that is definitely still sometimes in order ;)

yeah what you said about Balmain is totally true, i mean i like the pieces but there is no difference. Even with the jackets you cant tell which one is Spring 09 or Fall 08. Happy NotReallyyourbirthday Birthday

Ashley said...

happy blogaversarie!!
(thats the thing with made up words..you dont always know how to spell them.)

Ana said...

that was great. congrats on your first anniversery!

haha i love that you make noises instead of adjectives. all my friends talk in noises and i completelely understand them when they just go "ahhna bluhhblahgrahhhbels"

Ana said...

by the way i agree about balmain. the whole 80's revival is annoying me because how many times can you do the same thing?

Rosé Magritte said...

Ah, yeah I tend to ramble a lot too, but I think yours are more bearable and consistent. Glad to hear you're not thinking of stopping any time soon.

Fashion Cappuccino said...

Oh Tavi! Happy Birthday! I watched the entire video and couldn't get over how adorable and sweet you are. I enjoy your comments about the fashion industry and I think it'll be interesting to see you be a part of it! xxoxoxoxxoxo

Pretentious b said...

that was the longest video i've even watched of someone trashin balmain. i loved it.
b mi syster plz!

-sarah

Kylie said...

HA! About your dad rappin about Rei. Love it
And I agree with the Balmain part. Designers that crap out the same thing collection after collection are more concerned with the marketability rather than the expression of the actual clothing
Although some people just want the wearable clothes, they arent concerened with trying new things WHICH IS FINE, but personally I get bored...

Anywho, loved the video. I love it when you post videos. I love it when you post, period. Stay awesome
Happy blog b-day, and when's your b-day by the way? I've always wondered... in April I'm assuming?

Ttyl, congrats again about hanging in here so long and you are NOT an old blog hag! lol. Your blog is always fresh and has exciting stuff

agree about balmain. at first i was falling for it but then comes his fall winter 09/10 collection which is just the same old stuff and i feel its unimaginative and boring...
love your blog and your true individuality.

Aysha's Rabbit Hole said...

HAPPY BLOG BIRTHDAY TO YOU!
I HOPE THAT I ACHIEVE AS MUCH AS YOU HAVE WHEN MINE HITS BIRTHDAY 1.

BY THE WAY, I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOUR BALMAIN CRITIC! IT IS BECOMING A MONOTONOUS LOOK.. AS MUCH AS I LOVE THE 80'S .. MAYBE THEY ARE JUST SCARED TO CHANGE WITH THE CRISIS AND ALL.. WHO KNOWS..
LETS HOOPE HE WIPS UP SOMETHING ELSE FOR NEXT SEASON.

Pan said...

I haven't been reading your blog for all that long, but whenever I check it, I always enjoy what you've posted. The way you dress and the way you think, for a 12 year old and as a person in their own right, amazes me. You are actually so cool and what you're doig with your life and achieving in it (not that I know all that you've achieved, but things like getting that awesome t-shirt made etc gives me that impression) So yeah, I just thought I'd say that you're pretty awesome in my eyes and I admire you. And now I've realised that I sound like a right weirdo whos written a really long comment...sorry. I might just delete all this..no I can't..god sometimes I just wanna slap myself..

Hannah said...

Hi Tavi, long time reader, first time commenter- have been lurking in the shadows. Anyway happy birthday to your blog! Hope you got cake.

Mary Pailler said...

Hi!
Congrats to the wonderful blog, love the video and blah blah.. I do agree with you and everyone commenting on Balmain's recent 80's-inspired collections, but huh, let's not forget that fashion business is still a business. When that hard-to-pronounce Decarnin took over designing for Balmain, the house was in financial coma, so I think he's just forced to keep commerce in mind while designing the clothes - and those collections, well, they just sell well.

Rosa said...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! :D hope you won't stop ever ;)

You're so smart haha,

style-magnet said...

I so agree about Balmain. The first season with the rocker-80s-glitter look was killer and then... it came again. And again. And again.

And congrats on your anniversary! It seems like it's been a crazy ride AND GIRL YOU DESERVE IT YO.

kate cait sith said...

YOU NEED TO DO THIS (videos) MORE!
I swear, you are the most eloquent 12 year old I have heard speak with my own two ears!
Although with the Balmain "look" you suggest, just like Lagerfeld and even Tom Ford have been quoted, the "look", the "image", and the "lifestyle" is what sells. Balmain has been around for a while now and established their own appeal that reaches in a spectrum of more than just clothing... and I feel that is what makes them successful as a business and possess such a loyal market.
Just my two cents into the whole discussion.

why are you so amazing

you're so cute. i wish i were as cool as you when i was 12/i wish i was friends with someone like you when i was 12!

There have been people that have wanted to write us off all along. I think that's what "Spark" is about, that idea that we're here to stay.
