<human>: My boyfriend asked me the other day why I read fashion blogs. In all honesty, the only answer I could come up with was that I read them because I love fashion. In all honesty, I had never really questioned my love (obsession) with checking blog updates and reading fashion sites on a daily basis. In my quest to answer my boyfriend's question, I realized fashion blogs fall into a few categories. First are fashion news blogs which might range from New York Magazine's "The Cut" blog to CocoPerez.com to Fashionologie.com, street style blogs, personal style blogs, look-what-i-got blogs (aka braggieblogs), and finally celebrity blogs. The last two on the list are of special interest to me.
  

Look-what-I-got blogs are a personal pet peeve of mine, and many of my fashionista friends. Theres nothing more annoying than looking at pages upon pages of images of some unknown blogger's purchases. Not only is it boring, and highly uncreative: all you need is deep pockets to buy this week's trend item du jour, it is not in the true spirit of fashion. While the ability to purchase the latest pair of Louboutin's is a treat, shopping and fashion are two distinct entities. True, you must shop (sometimes) in order to take part in fashion. I would also say that Look-what-I-got blogs mislead budding fashionistas and fashion lovers on a budget into thinking that fashion is about money… not that it isn't, but rather that its about LOTS OF MONEY and constant purchasing, instead of editing, finding a style you love, and investing in pieces you know you will love for years to come.
   
I suppose, in my own way, this post has led me to find an answer for my boyfriend. I read fashion blogs because I am interested not only in fashion but in style. Not just style, great, well cultivated personal style that comes about through experience in the industry and years of experimentation. Through reading blogs I hope to further my own personal style and somehow become a better shopper.

Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell
<bot>: I waste all my time reading fashion blogs, because I am trying to find a strong personal style and not waste money when I go shopping.
