For many of us, clothes and shoes are just items we wear to prevent us from walking around with exposed bodies. But for some, like Jared Perry, clothes and shoes are an opportunity to express one’s personality and also their sense of style. Many of us have heard it before, “clothes make the man”. While it can be interpreted in many ways, for Jared, it adds that certain swag and creation of confidence we all on some level search for. Those exact thoughts are what led to Art of Fashion. 

Art of Fashion is an up and coming fashion blog that officially came to life on April 11, 2021. The blog caters to both men and women who are more into that athletic look with a nice dose of fresh swag. Shoes have always been a big part of Jared’s own swag, so it was important that he made sure to incorporate them into each look. Recently, Jared was able to attend Sneaker Con in Boston, Massachusetts. This is the premier sneaker event in which many popular sneakers are put on display. You can think of it as the Oscars of the sneaker world. The event was able to give Jared an even clearer vision he has for Art of Fashion. “Attending the Sneaker Con was something I was really looking forward to just because it helped me decide how I can expand my blog and even what my followers would probably appreciate that I add on.”

Not only has Jared’s Art of Fashion blog provided a look at his own take on fashion, but it has become a platform for other up and coming fashion bloggers as well. “It’s nice to be able to show off my own personal style with my blog, but I also like the idea of being able to show love and appreciation to my fellow peers and friends.” Art of Fashion even currently offers free promotion for other fashion enthusiasts and bloggers. When asked if this free promotion would remain in the future, Jared answered, “I don’t want to say yes and I don’t want to say no. Right now, I’m playing it by ear because Art of Fashion is still growing. But I will say that I’ll help and show love to fellow upcoming bloggers as much as I can. A win for one of us, is a win for all.”

Although still new to the blogger game, Jared also opened up about the future of Art to Fashion and what current followers and current followers can expect. “The Art of Fashion blog is on the road to becoming one of the hottest fashion blogs on Instagram…and eventually on the Internet as a whole.” Followers can look forward to exclusive content such as outfit of the day, outfit of the week, release days for sneakers, and sneaker talk videos. 

When asked for any advice he would offer for those thinking of creating a blog themselves, Jared says, “Go for it. The more you think about it, the more you’re probably going to try and convince yourself not to do it. If it’s something you’re passionate about, people will support it. Believe in your vision and yourself.”
