Tavi Gevinson has completely stolen my heart. I've been sort of passingly interested in her since I heard about her a few months ago and of course she's been in the media quite a bit recently what with all the runway shows.
This post is particularly great:
fashion, basically. also, TEAM CONANIt's her response to Tanya Gold's article in the Guardian

I love her for the same reasons you list. I am thinking of doing a blog post about her great response to Gold, and I'd love to quote your final paragraph. Would that be okay by you? And if so, how would you like me to attribute it? If not, that is totally totally fine--I just love what you've brought up about the way she inhabits childhood.

Oh, I really look forward to reading your post! And yes, please use the paragraph. You can just say, your friend Coco said blah blah blah.
It's just incredible to me that she is at the age when conformity is so necessary for social survival that she has no fear of doing her own thing and that she is not intimidated by the old guard who criticize her.

Yay! Thank you so much. I'll let you know once it's up.

Thank you so much! And thanks again for letting me quote you. It ended up being more contentious of a discussion than I anticipated, but that is basically true for all blog posts these days.
