Baltimore's Fashionable Gems

The beat I plan to cover is fashion in the Baltimore area. On the surface, it may seem a bit diffcult to find credible sources, but Baltimore has a host of shops and boutiques.

Yes, the mecca of fashion is generally seen as New York, but with boutiques like Ruth Shaw and Cupcake Clothing, there's a piece of SoHo right here in Baltimore.

Outside of covering different shops and boutiques, I want to report on up-and-coming trends along with hot buys for the recessionistas and recessionistos!

Allow Me To Reintroduce Myself

Well, I don't want to be redundant and restate the facts that I shared with the class last semester! So, I'm thinking I'll talk about life in the present.

My name is Melany, and I'm a Twitter fiend (Facebook is so 2008), thanks to 257! I'm a senior Mass Communication major on the Journalism and New Media Track.

Being a magazine editor-in-chief of a fashion or music magazine has been my dream for as long as I can remember, but this new gadget called Multimedia Journalism has sparked my interest! So needless to say, I'm most definitely looking forward to 258 and all it has in store.

I recently finished an internship with Baltimore Magazine, and to say it was a learning experience is an understatement. Starting next week, I'll be interning for Girls Life Magazine for the summer.

That's about it for me. Well, anything worth sharing that is! See everyone Friday!
