StylistPick - Your Personal Women's Shoe Stylist | StylistPick Новости, Buro 24/7 Clichange.fr Dawn of the digital style guru - News - Fashion Shoppers can upload pictures of their outfits to be judged, and share their vital stats to seek sartorial suggestions. A raft of sites are leaping on to the bandwagon, prompting questions about whether they are any good. Poppy Dinsey, the founder of the site WIWT (What I Wore Today), said: "It used to be thought that the one thing that online could not offer, that traditional shopping could, was styling.
