Splendicity, b5media’s fashion and beauty community will launch on September 4th. Why should you care? Because all throughout the month of September, there will be prizes, prizes, prizes to be won!

Head over there, check out some of the member blogs and then come September 4th, enter some cool contests and win some prizes! Who doesn’t love prizes?!

Written by Jennifer Chait (who also commands the posts at Offbeat Homes and Hippie Sounds), Tree Hugging Family will cover everything you need to know for you and your family to live a more earth-friendly lifestyle.

(Maybe, if we’re lucky, we’ll gain enough numbers to overpower those pesky ‘beauty’ people and change the channel name to Style & Beauty. If Paul McCartney can do it….)

First up, the men in our lives can get a little more stylish, thanks to Colbert Low and his new blog, Metro Style Men. I’ll be sure to send the bf, Matt, there!

I guess Hippie Sounds would be our sister-in-spirit blog over at the Music Channel! Covering that groovy earth-inspired music from the sixties, Jennifer Chait will bring you everything from Zappa’s Love Song Theory
to art made with vinyl.

Despite the fact that I have size-11 feet — which makes finding good ones nearly impossible — I love shoes. Which is why I’m really excited for the Beauty & Style Channel’s new blog, Shoe Blitz! Written by the fabulous b5 newbie Kori Ellis, she is going to bring us the low-down on everything fashionable below the ankle!

Ohh…..we should totally have cross-over posts, Kori!
Another exciting new blog is Beauty Bento Box. Over there, Sasha Manuel will be bringing you her expert knowledge on Asian make-up and beauty. Sasha’s been around the b5 block a few times, so I know this …read more
