OVER OBSESSED WITH STYLE? STYLE MOB

The story behind the look: i want these! <3>

We all know there are some over obsessed fashion people in the world. Well, I ran across a web site that enables those who suffer from this OCD behavior. The website that I am referring to is called STYLEMOB. It is basically an online community in which people upload pictures of themselves and others to allow fellow members on the site to vote on how good or bad their style choices are. The style categories are WHOLE LOOK,HEAD+HAIR, THINGS, and ECT. Under the WHOLE LOOK you can find anything from Christian Dior models on the runway, vintage vixens or your average Joe who thinks that they have impeccable style although they are only wearing a sweat shirt and jeans. HEAD+HAIR features pictures of hair styles, mostly 1960 inspired ponies, platinum blonde bobs and others. It also has an array of hats and scarves and also features make up fanatics with their large lashes and expressive red lips. THINGS are mostly accessories and shoes. There are vintage shoes and hand bags, fetish shoes and more. ECT is pretty much anything having to do with style. There is photography, artwork and total randomness.
There is even a section in which people seek out advise. Sort of a ‘q and a’ forum thing that those hopeful stylish beings seek out information from self proclaimed style moguls. Everyday the mob picks 3 winners under the categories of MOST WOW, MOST VIEWED AND MOST MOBBED. The mob also has contest, the most recent contest is “THE DELICIOUSLY UGLY CHRISTMAS SWEATER”, which speaks for itself.
The site is fun because it allows freedom in choosing what is fashion and what is not. However, I initially thought that unless they are winning money for these fabulous opinions and digital uploads, it is just a waste of time. But to my surprise, these mobers really do win money and shopping sprees. Okay, so now I have a better outlook on this whole online community of OCD behavior. Not only are they having fun, but there is an incentive to the whole thing. I wonder do industry people search this website like record execs do Myspace and Youtube trying to find up in coming artist. If so, there is even more motivation for this mob of stylist!
