A Brief Blog Profile: Trend Hungry
There are three things that make me happy about fall’s cool weather: new boots, blazers, and sweaters to fall in love with. The only thing that isn’t happy is my wallet. As I scoured fashion blogs for frugal finds, Jessie Holeva's Trend Hungry caught my eye.
The Philadelphia-based fashion blogger lives up to her mantra "Fat Closet, Skinny Budget" with posts like this Trendy vs Spendy spotlight comparing a $550 Burberry London blouse with its under-$35 look-alike. On the heels of New York Fashion Week, you can also check out her NYFW Photo Diary for more inspiration.
A former radio DJ, Holeva has taken her passion for budget-friendly fashion to the airwaves with the weekly syndicated trend forecast “Trend Hungry Tuesday” found on New York’s WPLJ and other radio stations. Her style sense has also been featured in Woman’s Day, The Wall Street Journal, Shape.com, SheKnows, eHow, Gal Time, and Nicole Miller’s Blog Nicole Daily.
As founder of Philly Blog Love, she's created a community for other Philadelphia beauty, fashion, and lifestyle bloggers by organizing helpful resources and blogging events.

Customized Newsfeeds
Don't let the name PR Newswire for Journalists dissuade you. This is a great service for bloggers. Any content creator -- whether you're a journalist, freelancer or blogger -- can set up a customized profile to receive releases based on preferences. You also have access to hi-res photos, media-only content such as media advisories and embargoed releases, and experts via ProfNet.
ProfNet
Need expert sources? Check out ProfNet, a service that helps journalists, bloggers, authors, and other content creators connect with experts -- at no charge. Sending a query is easy: Just fill out a form detailing the kind of expertise you need, how you want to be contacted, and your deadline. ProfNet will do the rest. You also can sign up for a weekly "tip sheet" of experts and story ideas. Visit ProfNet for more info or go directly to the query form.
ProfNet Connect
ProfNet Connect is a free, interactive online community where PR professionals, experts, and media professionals can network and engage with one another. Via profiles, forums and blogs, subject-matter experts can position themselves as the go-to source for content creators and journalists. In turn, content creators can search the site by keyword to find the experts they need. The site also features enhanced profile capabilities, allowing users to easily add multimedia components -- photos, videos, white papers and more -- to their profiles.
News Widget
Our widget allows you to display PR Newswire content on your site with very little back-end programming required. You not only get the headline, but also the body of text of the news release, keeping the user on your site at all times. In order to do so, the difference between our Widget and other widgets is at the end of the sign-up process, you will be provided with two pieces of source code -- one for the page where the Widget itself will be displayed and one for the pages that will display the body of text of each news release. In addition, the sign-up process allows you to have 100 percent control over every aspect of the Widget's appearance, so that the Widget can blend in fully with the look and feel of your site. Still not convinced? Here's what one blogger had to say about the widget.
